Abstract

A novel indium complex {[InL(NO3)(OH)]·NO3·CH3OH}2 (1) is isolated from the refluxing reaction of a tetradentate Schiff base ligand, N,N′-bis(2-pyridinylmethylene)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (L), and In(III) nitrate hydrate. The room temperature (298K) and cryogenic temperature (77K) emission spectra of 1 are recorded in solid state and different solvents (CH3OH, CHCl3, CH3CN and DMSO). Complex 1 exhibits a pronounced bathochromic shift in emission spectra as solvent polarity increases (polarity order: DMSO>CH3CN>CHCl3), indicating a change in dipole moment of 1 upon excitation. Further bathochromic shift exists in CH3OH (467nm) solution. An extended work is developed to discuss on maximum emission and lunminescent lifetime of 1 dispersed in the deuterated reagents (CD3OD, CDCl3, CD3CN and DMSO-d6). The results exhibit that the similar emission also exists in deuterated reagents and the longer lifetime is observed due to the scarcity of OH, NH, and CH oscillators. The quantum yield of 1 decreases with increasing polarity of solvent within the region of 7.8–15.4%. Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) 1931 demonstrates that the color gamut of 1 is blue.
