Abstract: | Novel EuIII complexes with bidentate phosphine oxide ligands containing a bipyridine framework, i.e., [3,3′‐bis(diphenylphosphoryl)‐2,2′‐bipyridine]tris(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)europium(III) ([Eu(hfa)3(BIPYPO)]) and [3,3′‐bis(diphenylphosphoryl)‐6,6′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine]tris(hexafluoroacetylacetonato)europium(III) ([Eu(hfa)3(Me‐BIPYPO)]), were synthesized for lanthanide‐based sensor materials having high emission quantum yields and effective chemosensing properties. The emission quantum yields of [Eu(hfa)3(BIPYPO)] and [Eu(hfa)3(Me‐BIPYPO)] were 71 and 73%, respectively. Metal‐ion sensing properties of the EuIII complexes were also studied by measuring the emission spectra of EuIII complexes in the presence of ZnII or CuII ions. The metal‐ion sensing and the photophysical properties of luminescent EuIII complexes with a bidentate phosphine oxide containing 2,2′‐bipyridine framework are demonstrated for the first time. |
