Abstract

Graphical Abstract: This paper describes the preparation of four 3 d –4 f (3 d = Zn; 4 f = Eu, Tb) coordination polymers based on compartment compounds and their emission quenching of the lanthanide ions. Abstract: This paper describes the preparation of four 3 d –4 f (3 d = Zn; 4 f = Eu, Tb) coordination polymers and their emission quenching of the lanthanide ions. Two dinuclear Zn–Ln compartment compounds, [ZnLn(L)(NO3 )(CH3 CN)(H2 O)4 ](NO3 )2 (H2 O) (Ln = Eu, Tb), were prepared at room temperature by stirring an acetonitrile solution containing [Zn(L)] (H2 L = 1, 3-bis((3-methoxysalicylidene)amino)propane) and Ln(NO3 )3 · n (H2 O). When these compounds were treated with 4-pyridinepropionic acid (4-Hppa) under microwave-heating conditions, one-dimensional Zn–Ln coordination polymers were formed: [ZnLn(L)(NO3 )2 (4-ppa)(EtOH)] (Ln = Eu (1 ), Tb (2 )). By contrast, these compounds reacted with pyridine-4-carboxylic acid (4-Hpca) to give two-dimensional Zn–Ln coordination polymers: [ZnLn(L)(NO3 )2 (4-pca)(H2 O)] (Ln = Eu (3 ), Tb (4 )). All the compounds (1 –4 ) exhibited the emission quenching of the Ln 3+ ion, probably due to the Ln 3+ → Zn 2+ energy transfer.
