Abstract
Presented herein are two luminescent magnesium coordination polymers (Mg-CPs), namely [Mg2 (H2O)2 (2-NDC)4 (1,10-phen)2] (1) and [Mg2 (H2O)(1,4-NDC)2 (1,10-phen)] (2), in which 2-NDCH=2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid, 1,4-NDCH2 =1,4-naphthalene dicarboxylic acid, and 1,10-phen=1,10-phenanthroline. Based on the mixed ligands, the title compounds exhibit linker-based photoluminescence (PL) properties thanks to the unique configuration of the Mg(2+) ions. The two compounds show interesting dual emission on excitation of the different luminophores of the mixed linkers. In particular, the emissions of compound 2 could be tuned from green to yellow simply by varying the excitation energies. Furthermore, 2 could be excited by using a commercial λ=450 nm blue LED chip to generate white-light emission, which allows the fabrication of a white-light-emitting diode (WLED) with 20 lm W(-1) luminous efficacy. This work may provide a new method for designing tunable PL CPs by using the low-cost and abundant magnesium ion.
