Abstract: A colorimetric phosphorescent iridium(III) complex chemodosimeter (Ir1) for Hg2+ has been prepared and confirmed by NMR, MS, and crystal data, which displays a high selectivity and antidisturbance for Hg2+ among relevant metal ions. The solution color changed from orange to light yellow as soon as 1 equiv of Hg2+ was added. Phosphorescent studies show that the luminescence intensity in 599 nm decreased to ca. 13%, while the luminescence intensity in 465 nm increased to ca. 217%. The ratio of Ir1 responding to Hg2+ was determined to be 1:1 by UV–vis absorption and phosphorescent emission measurements. Further study demonstrates the detection limit on phosphorescent response of the sensor to Hg2+ is down to 10−6 M range. The mechanism study shows that the interaction between the S atom of ancillary ligand and Hg2+ is responsible for the highly selective and sensitive phosphorescent senor for Hg2+.

The title compound, C(25)H(27)N(3)O(8)·C(4)H(8)O(2), has a diterpene skeleton in which the fused cyclo-hexane rings exhibit chair and half-chair conformations. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond occurs. In the crystal, N-H⋯O, O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds are observed.

In the title mol-ecule, C(26)H(26)N(2)O, the phenyl and phen-oxy rings form dihedral angles of 54.66 (7) and 84.83 (6)°, respectively, with the phthalazine mean plane. The crystal packing exhibits weak C-H⋯π inter-actions.

The title complex, [Er(C(15)H(11)O(2))(NO(3))(2)(C(18)H(15)N(3)O)]·CH(3)CN, has been synthesized from 4'-all-yloxy-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (altpy), dibenzoyl-methane and erbium nitrate. The distorted monocapped square anti-prismatic coordination polyhedron is formed by a bidentate dibenzoyl-methanide residue, a tridentate altpy ligand and two nitrate anions that act as bidentate ligands and occupy mutually trans sites.

The title complex, [Nd(C(15)H(11)O(2))(NO(3))(2)(C(18)H(15)N(3)O)]·CH(3)CN or [Nd(altpy)(dbm)(NO(3))(2)]·CH(3)CN (altpy = 4'-all-yl-oxy-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine, dbm = dibenzoyl-methanide anion), has been synthesized from 4'-all-yloxy-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine, dibenzoyl-methanate and neodymium nitrate. The Nd(3+) atom is nine-coordinated by two O atoms from the bidentate dbm ligand, three N atoms from the tridentate altpy ligand and four O atoms from two nitrate anions that act as bidentate ligands and occupy mutually trans sites in a distorted monocapped square-anti-prismatic geometry.
