Abstract

AbstractA novel ligand: 2,2′‐(1,3‐phenylenedivinylene)bis‐8‐hydroxyquinoline (m‐B8QPH) (4) and the corresponding polymeric metal complex Zn(m‐B8QPH) (5) were designed and synthesized in a convenient way. The luminescence properties of the compounds Zn(m‐B8QPH) (5) and Zn(p‐B8QPH) (9) were investigated by UV‐vis and fluorescence spectra in DMF at room temperature. The experimental results showed that the polymeric complexes 5 and 9 emitted yellow luminescence at 578 and 554 nm in DMF solution. The polymeric complex 5 has demonstrated good solubility in common organic solvents and good thermal stability with high Tg: 261°C. Furthermore, the molecular interactions of 5 with fullerene (C60) and fulleropyrrolidine containing 3,5‐bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene (11) were also investigated, which indicated the metal dye 5 can be used as new fluorescent probe.
