Abstract

Recently, the tetrahedral Ti4L6 cage (L = embonate) has been applied as the starting material to realize coordination assembly with transition and rare-earth ornoble metal ions through a two-step reaction. In this work, by employing the Ti4L6 cages to assemble with alkaline-earth metal ions (such as Mg2+, Ca2+ and Ba2+) under different solvothermal conditions, a series of Ti4L6-based structures from simple cages to 1D chain, 2D layer and 3D framework have been synthesized and structurally characterized. In addition, thermal stability, phase purity, UV-vis absorption spectrum, the fluorescent and third-order nonlinear-optical properties are also investigated.
