Abstract:Cu(CF3COO)2 reacts with tert‐butylacetylene (tBuC≡CH) in methanol in the presence of metallic copper powder to give two air‐stable clusters, [CuI15(tBuC≡C)10(CF3COO)5]?tBuC≡CH ( 1 ) and [CuI16(tBuC≡C)12(CF3COO)4(CH3OH)2] ( 2 ). The assembly process involves in situ comproportionation reaction between Cu2+ and Cu0 and the formation of two different clusters is controlled by reactants concentration. The clusters consist of Cu15 and Cu16 cores co‐stabilized by strong by σ‐ and π‐bonded tert‐butylethynide and CF3COO? (together with methanol molecule in 2 ). Their stabilities in solution were confirmed using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in which the cluster core remains intact for 1 in chloroform and acetone, and for 2 in acetonitrile. Strong thermochromic luminescence in the near infrared (NIR) region was observed in the solid‐state. Of particular interest, the emission maximum of 1 is red‐shifted from 710 nm at 298 K to 793 nm at 93 K, along with a 17‐fold fluorescence enhancement. In contrast, 2 exhibits red shift from 298 to 123 K followed by blue shift from 123 to 93 K. The emission wavelength was correlated with the structural parameters using variable‐temperature X‐ray single‐crystal analyses. The rich cuprophilic interaction plays a significant role in the formation of 3LMCT (tBuC≡C→Cux) excited state mixed with cluster‐centered (3CC) characters, which can be considerably influenced by temperature, leading to thermochromic luminescence. The present work provides 1) a new synthetic protocol for the high‐nuclear CuI–alkynyl clusters; 2) a comprehensive insight into the mechanism of thermochromic luminescence; 3) unusual emissive materials with the characters of NIR and thermochromic luminescence simultaneously.
