| Abstract: | Luminescent coordination compounds with nitrogen-containing ligands have attracted much attention due to their good performance in sensor and electroluminescent device techniques[1-17]. To develop new luminescent materials, a large number of d10 metal complexes, especially zinc complexes, with the nitrogen-containing ligands have been synthesized and their luminescence behaviour have been studied[1-11]. It has been found that for a given complex, the size of the π-conjugated system of the ligand and the electronic effect of substituents at the ligand are important factors for modulating its luminescent properties[5,8,9]. |
