Although osmabenzyne, osmanaphthalyne, osmaphenanthryne, and osmaanthracyne have been previously reported, the synthesis of polycyclic osmaarynes is still a challenge. Herein, we report the successful synthesis of the first pentacyclic osmaarynes (pyreno[b]osmabenzynes 1 a and 2 a) and hexacyclic osmaaryne (peryleno[b]osmabenzyne 3 a). Nucleophilic reaction of osmaarynes was used to obtain the corresponding pyreno[b]osmium complexes (1 and 2) and peryleno[b] osmium complex (3), which exhibited near-infrared luminescence and aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties. Complexes 2 and 3 are resistant to photodegradation, and complex 2 has better photothermal conversion properties than 3., (© 2022 Wiley-VCH GmbH.)

In this paper, several Ir (III) complexes with transition metal as the central atom formed by the corresponding combination of two main ligands and three auxiliary ligands have been studied theoretically. The electronic structure, frontier molecular orbital, and spin orbit coupling data are used to analyze its application value in light emitting devices. The density functional theory is used to study (tbi)2Ir(bpp), (tbi‐c)2Ir(bpp), (tbi)2Ir(dbm), (tbi‐c)2Ir(dbm), (tbi)2Ir(pic), and (tbi‐c)2Ir(pic). bpp = (2Z)‐3‐hydroxy‐13‐diphenylprop‐2‐en‐1‐one; dbm = 1,3‐di‐phenyl‐1, 3‐propanedione; pic = picolinate.

Six hydrous Cd(II) coordination polymers based on a scorpion-like 5-(3-pyridylmethoxy)isophthalic acid (H 2 L), namely {[CdL(H 2 O)]·2H 2 O} n ( 1 ), [Cd 4 L 4 (H 2 O) 4 ] n ( 2 ), [CdL(H 2 O)] n ( 3 ), [CdL(H 2 O) 2 ] n ( 4 ), {[CdL(H 2 O)]·H 2 O} n ( 5 ) and [CdL] n ( 6 ), were hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by EA, IR, PXRD, TG-DSC and X-ray structural analysis. Temperature and solvent play crucial roles in the preparation of the coordination polymers. Complexes 1 – 3 were prepared in a H 2 O-DMF (6:2) solvent system at slightly different temperature (85, 100 and 120 °C). Complexes 4 – 6 were prepared in different H 2 O-DMF solvents (6:3 and 8:2) and H 2 O-MeCN (3:6) solvent. These complexes possess different coordinated and/or lattice water molecules, and exhibit structural diversity and various topology nets. Complex 1 is a 2D double-layered coordination polymer. Complex 2 features a 3D porous framework with irl topology. Complex 3 displays a 2D double-layered network. Complex 4 is a 3D coordination polymer with sra topology. Complex 5 exhibits a 3D wave-like framework with sra topology. Complex 6 is a 3D coordination polymer with self-catenated hxg-d topology. 5-(3-Pyridylmethoxy)isophthalate adopts three types of coordination modes. These complexes exhibit higher thermal stability and emit strong luminescence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Novel functional composite materials based on chitosan (CTS), composites with both electrorheological (ER) performance and luminescence property have been synthesized by a very simple grinding method. The biocompatible chitosan, as well as the Tb(NO3)3·6H2O, La(NO3)3·6H2O and sulphosalicylic acid (C7H6O6S·2H2O, SSA) were chosen as starting materials. The composition, ER performance, luminescence property and dielectric property of the materials have been studied. Our results show that sulphosalicylic acid (SSA) and the rare earth (RE=Tb, La) complexes (TbSSA, TbLaSSA) in the material may enhance the ER performance of chitosan. The material (CTSTbSSA) containing the complex (TbSSA) of Tb3+ ion has the highest ER activity among the studied materials. The composition and structure of the RE complexes are the dominant factors in improving the ER effect. The materials (CTSTbSSA, CTSTbLaSSA) containing the RE complexes exhibit fine luminescence performance. The material with both ER activity and luminescence performance is a novel multifunction material which would have the prospect of a wide application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hydrothermal reactions of AgNO 3 , K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] with N-heterocyclic ligands afforded three novel Ag(I)–cyanide coordination polymers, [Ag 2 (CN) 2 (tpt)] n ( 1 ), {[Ag(CN)(bpe) 0.5 ][Ag(CN)]} n ( 2 ) and [Ag(CN)(btmb) 0.5 ] n ( 3 ) (tpt = 2,4,6-tris(4-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine, bpe = 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane, btmb = 1,2-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene). In complex 1 , two Ag(CN) linear chains are bridged by bidentate tpt ligand to form a ladder-like structure, which are further connected by Ag Ag metal bond to generate a 2D polymeric network. Complex 2 is an interesting 3D supramolecular architecture assembled by 2D [Ag 1 (CN)(bpe) 0.5 ] n network and linear [Ag 2 (CN)] n chain combined by strong Ag Ag metal bond. Complex 3 is a 1D ladder-like double-chain polymer constructed from Ag–cyanide linear chains and btmb spacer, which is further extended to a 2D supramolecular network by Ag–Ag weak interaction. The Ag–Ag metal interactions play important roles in the construction of three coordination polymers. Complexes 1 and 2 are respectively thermally stable at 300 and 180 °C. Complexes 1 and 3 emit strong blue luminescence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The In‐based double perovskite halides have been widely studied for promising optical‐electric applications. The halide hexagonal perovskite Cs2LiInCl6 was isolated using solid‐state reactions and investigated using X‐ray diffraction and solid‐state NMR spectra. The material adopts a 12‐layered hexagonal structure (12R) consisting of layered cationic orders driven by the cationic charge difference and has Li+ cations in the terminal site and In3+ in the central site of face‐shared octahedron trimers. Such a cationic ordering pattern is stabilized by electrostatic repulsions between the next‐nearest neighboring cations in the trimers. The LiCl6 octahedron displays large distortion and is confirmed by 7Li SS NMR in the Cs2LiInCl6. The Cs2LiInCl6 material has a direct bandgap of ~4.98 eV. The Cs2LiInCl6: Mn2+ displays redshift luminescence (centered at ~610–622 nm) from the substituted Mn2+ emission in octahedron with larger PLQY (17.8 %–48 %) compared with that of Cs2NaInCl6: Mn2+. The Mn‐doped materials show luminescent concentration quenching and thermal quenching. The composition Cs2Li0.99In0.99Mn0.02Cl6 exhibits the highest PL intensity, a maximum PLQY of 48 %, and high luminescent retention rate of ~86 % below 400 K and is suitable for application for pc‐LED. These findings contribute to our understanding of the chloride perovskites and hold potential for widespread optical applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Four cadmium complexes with flexible polycarboxylic acid ligands have been synthesized. The bidentate auxiliary ligands with different lengths and flexibility play an important role to affect their final structures. The luminescent sensing of compounds 1 and 4 toward nitrobenzene has also been investigated. • Four cadmium coordination polymers have been synthesized by using flexibly carboxylic ligand. • The auxiliary ligands play an important role to affect their final structures. • Compound 1 and 4 might be developed as a functional luminescent probe for detecting nitrobenzene.
