Abstract

ABSTRACTSeveral novel Eu(III) complexes with asymmetric bis-phosphine oxide- ligands were synthesized. The relation between molecular structures of bis-phosphine- oxide ligands and properties of Eu(III) complexes was investigated and some interesting results were obtained. Solubility of Eu(III) complexes in fluorinated medium and silicone oil were strongly dependent on the length of alkyl chain (n) binding two phosphine oxide- parts. Also, the thermal properties of Eu(III) complexes were correlated to the solubility. Eu(III) complex 6(n=3), which has phenyl and n-octyl groups as the substituents of a bis-phosphine oxide- ligand, was found to be highly soluble and have large fluorescence intensity.
