Abstract
The spectroscopic characterization of the metal complexes the 5-amidopyridine-8-hydroxyquinoline (HQ′NHCOC 5H 4N) form with M = Be, Zn, Cd, Al, Ga and In is reported. These compounds, M(Q′NHCOC 5H 4N) 2 (M = Be, Zn, Cd) and M(Q′NHCOC 5H 4N) 3 (M = Al, Ga, In), are highly soluble in DMSO and, in addition, the gallium and indium products dissolve in methyl or ethyl alcohol. These species are very stable in solution and emit in the range 520 (Be)–590 (Ga and In) nm with photoluminescent quantum yields ranging from 0.010 (Al) to 0.001 (In). Processability and color emission suggest that some of these new materials can be of interest for practical applications in optoelectronic devices.
