Abstract

Three novel coordination complexes [Mn(tpha)(phen)] n ( 1); [Mn(na) 2(H 2O) 2] n ( 2); {[Mn(phen) 2(OH)Cl] · Cl · (OH) · (C 9H 11NO 2) · 2H 2O} ( 3) have been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (H 2tpha = terephthalic acid, Hna = nicotinic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). The tpha groups in complex 1 bridge the Mn(II) ions to an infinite 3D framework. Complex 2 exhibits a 2D network structure in which the Mn(II) ions are linked by nicotinic groups. Complex 3 is connected to a 2D coordination supramolecule by hydrogen bonds. The results of surface photovoltage spectra (SPS) of complexes 1– 3 indicate that they all exhibit positive surface photovoltage (SPV) responses in the range of 300–800 nm. However, the intensity, position and numbers of SPV responses are obviously different. The distinctions can be mainly attributed to their structures, valences and coordination environments of the manganese ions in the three complexes. Moreover the external field induced surface photovoltage spectra (FISPS) of the three complexes have been measured.
