Abstract

Six novel uranyl terpyridine aromatic carboxylate coordination polymers, [UO(2)(C(6)H(2)O(4)S)(C(15)H(11)N(3))] (1), [UO(2)(C(6)H(2)O(4)S)(C(15)H(10)N(3)Cl)]·H(2)O (2), [UO(2)(C(8)H(4)O(4))(C(15)H(11)N(3))] (3), [UO(2)(C(8)H(4)O(4))(C(15)H(10)N(3)Cl)] (4), [UO(2)(C(12)H(6)O(4))(C(15)H(11)N(3))] (5), and [UO(2)(C(12)H(6)O(4))(C(15)H(10)N(3)Cl)] (6), were synthesized under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction and luminescence and UV-vis spectroscopy. Compounds 1, 2, and 5 crystallize as molecular uranyl dimers, whereas compounds 3, 4, and 6 contain ladder motifs of uranyl centers. Fluorescence spectra of 1-4 show characteristic UO(2)(2+) emission, wherein bathochromic and hypsochromic shifts are noted as a function of organic species. In contrast, uranyl emission from 5 and 6 is quenched by the naphthalene dicarboxylic acid linker molecules.
