The luminescence excitation energy transfer in europium and terbium indole-3-carboxylates, indole-3-acetates and indole-3-propionates as well as ternary indolecarboxylates containing 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridine molecules have been studied. The luminescence excitation spectra, the lifetimes of the 5D0 (Eu3+) and 5D4 (Tb3+) states, and the luminescence intensity are analyzed. The decisive role of ligand-metal charge transfer (LMCT) states in the quenching of the luminescence of europium aromatic carboxylates containing a π-excessive pyrrole or indole fragment is demonstrated. Most europium compounds are characterized by quenching due to the depopulation of the 5D0 state of the Eu3+ ion through the low-energy LMCT state. But in some ternary compounds, the LMCT state being of higher energy participates in the nonradiative depopulation of the excited electronic states of the ligand.

The absorption and emission mechanisms of gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) have yet to be understood. In this article, 11-Mercaptoundecanoic acid (MUA) capped AuNCs (AuNC@MUA) were synthesized using the chemical etching method. Compared with MUA, AuNC@MUA had three obvious absorption peaks at 280 nm, 360 nm, and 390 nm; its photoluminescence excitation (PLE) peak and photoluminescence (PL) peak were located at 285 nm and 600 nm, respectively. The AuNC@MUA was hardly emissive when 360 nm and 390 nm were chosen as excitation wavelengths. The extremely large stokes-shift (>300 nm), and the mismatch between the excitation peaks and absorption peaks of AuNC@MUA, make it a particularly suitable model for studying the emission mechanism. When the ligands were partially removed by a small amount of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) solution, the absorption peak showed a remarkable rise at 288 nm and declines at 360 nm and 390 nm. These experimental results illustrated that the absorption peak at 288 nm was mainly from metal-to-metal charge transfer (MMCT), while the absorption peaks at 360 nm and 390 nm were mainly from ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT). The PLE peak coincided with the former absorption peak, which implied that the emission of the AuNC@MUA was originally from MMCT. It was also interesting that the emission mechanism could be switched to LMCT from MMCT by decreasing the size of the nanoclusters using 16-mercaptohexadecanoic acid (MHA), which possesses a stronger etching ability. Moreover, due to the different PL intensities of AuNC@MUA in methanol, ethanol, and water, it has been successfully applied in detecting methanol in adulterated wine models (methanol-ethanol-water mixtures).

AbstractHighly selective and sensitive 2,7-naphthyridine based colorimetric and fluorescence “Turn Off” chemosensors (L1-L4) for detection of Ni2+ in aqueous media are reported. The receptors (L1-L4) showed a distinct color change from yellow to red by addition of Ni2+ with spectral changes in bands at 535–550 nm. The changes are reversible and pH independent. The detection limits for Ni2+ by (L1-L4) are in the range of 0.2–0.5 µM by UV–Visible data and 0.040–0.47 µM by fluorescence data, which is lower than the permissible value of Ni2+ (1.2 µM) in drinking water defined by EPA. The binding stoichiometries of L1-L4 for Ni2+ were found to be 2:1 through Job’s plot and ESI–MS analysis. Moreover the receptors can be used to quantify Ni2+ in real water samples. Formation of test strips by the dip-stick method increases the practical applicability of the Ni2+ test for “in-the-field” measurements. DFT calculations and AIM analyses supported the experimentally determined 2:1 stoichiometries of complexation. TD-DFT calculations were performed which showed slightly decreased FMO energy gaps due to ligand–metal charge transfer (LMCT).

This paper focuses on the synthesis, structural characterization, and study of the optical, magnetic, and thermal properties of novel architectures combining metal ions as magnetoactive centers and photoactive blocks formed by carbazole units. For this purpose, a series of azomethine complexes of the composition [Fe(L)2]X (L = 3,6-bis[(3′,6′-di-tert-butyl-9-carbazol)-9-carbazol]benzoyloxy-4-salicylidene-N′-ethyl-N-ethylenediamine, X = NO3−, Cl−, PF6−) were synthesized by the reaction of metal salts with Schiff bases in a mixture of solvents. The UV–Vis absorption properties were studied in dichloromethane and rationalized via time-dependent density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Upon excitation at 350 nm, the compounds exhibited an intense dual fluorescence with two emission bands centered at ~445 and ~485 nm, which were assigned to πcarb–π* intraligand and πcarb–dFe ligand-to-metal charge-transfer excited states. EPR spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry revealed solid-state partial spin crossover in some compounds, and antiferromagnetic interactions between the neighboring Fe(III) ions.
