Abstract

We report here the low temperature emission spectra in the heterometal dinuclear 3d-4f assembled molecular system [(acac)2CrIII(μ-ox)LnIII(HBpz3) 2] (Cr(ox)Ln:acac- = acetylacetonate, ox2- = oxalate, HBpz3- = hydrotris(pyrazol-1-yl)borate; Ln = La, Nd, Ho, Er, Tm and Yb) in comparison with those of Na[Cr(acac)2(ox)] and [(HBpz3)2Ln(μ-ox)Ln(HBpz3)2](Ln = Nd and Er). From 10 to 150 K the Cr(ox)Ln complexes show a broad emission band around 800 nm from the 2E state of Cr(III) moiety. At room temperature no 2E-4A2 emission was observed in the Cr(ox)Ln except for the La and Lu complexes. On warming from 10 to 300 K rapid quenching of the 2E-4A2 emission of Cr(III) is suggested to result from the energy transfer from Cr to Ln in the Cr(ox)Ln. The excitation spectra and the life-time were also measured with monitoring the 4f-4f emission peaks of the Cr(ox)Yb complex.
