Two mercury(II) halide coordination polymers with efficient photoluminescence

Two coordination polymers (CPs), [Hg(Bpbp)X2]n (X = Br (1), I (2), Bpbp = 4,4′-bis(4-pyridyl)-biphenyl), were synthesized via solvothermal synthesis methods, and were further fully characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analyses, FT-IR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analyses. The two CPs exhibit similar one-dimensional zigzag chain structures constructed by Bpbp ligand connecting Hg(II) cations with halide ions as terminal ligands, while the zigzag chains show different configurations, symmetries and packing modes. The results of photoluminescence experiments and DFT calculations indicate that both the halide anions and conjugated Bpbp ligands show important roles in the emission process of CPs, and halide anions may tune the luminescence properties of CPs.

Nucleation Mechanism of Hexagonal Boron Nitride on Diamond (111) and Its Hydrogen-Terminated Surface: A DFT Study.

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) has attracted significant attention due to its exceptional properties. Among various substrates used for h-BN growth, diamond emerges as a more promising substrate due to its high-temperature resistance and superior electrical properties. To reveal the nucleation mechanism of h-BN on the diamond (111) surface and the impact of hydrogenation treatment on this process, we explored the adsorption, diffusion, nucleation morphologies, and predicted nucleation pathways in this process using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT). Our results indicate that N positioned above the first layer of C and B positioned above the second layer of C enhance the stability of BN clusters. During the growth of BN clusters, there is a geometric transformation from chain-like structures to honeycomb-like structures. The proportion of unhybridized sp2 atoms within BN clusters and geometric symmetry significantly influence h-BN growth. Moreover, computational findings also suggest that to enhance the nucleation rate of h-BN it is essential to inhibit the formation of zigzag chain structures by BN clusters during the early stages of nucleation on a clean diamond surface. Additionally, hydrogenation treatment decreases the binding affinity of B and N on the substrate, facilitating atomic diffusion, and has been identified as an effective approach to facilitate nucleation. Furthermore, hydrogen-terminated diamond acts as an electron donor in the system, which profoundly affects the morphology of growing h-BN and the characteristics of the h-BN/diamond heterostructures. These conclusions are important to understanding and optimizing h-BN growth on diamond and provide a theoretical basis of the construction and application of the h-BN/diamond heterostructure.

Synthesis, structure, and thermal stability of new one-dimensional rubidium coordination supramolecular compound

New one-dimensional rubidium dipicolinate hydrate, Rb(Hpdc)(H2pdc)·2H2O, Rb-pdc (H2pdc = pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) has been grown via hydrothermal method. Single crystal X‐ray diffraction indicates that Rb-pdc reveal a zigzag chain structure, and is composed of RbO7N2 polyhedra, 2,6-pdc ligand, and H2O. Rb-pdc crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1¯ (No.2) with unit cell of a = 6.9050(4) Å, b = 10.9237(7) Å, c = 11.3319(7) Å, α = 94.014(2)°, β = 90.591(2) , γ = 99.6870(10)°, V = 840.28(9) Å3, Z = 2. The observed Rb–O and Rb–N bond distances are 2.904(4)–3.545(4) Å and 3.112(3)–3.159(4) Å, respectively. H-bonds incorporate the chains in Rb-pdc into a 2D (along [1,0,0] direction) network topology. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and powder X-ray diffraction measured at different temperatures show that Rb-pdc exhibits three steps of weight losses, and Rb2O as the final thermal decomposition product is demonstrated. Also, elemental analysis (EA) and infrared (IR) spectrum are performed to identify the chemical composition and characterized bonding.

Gapless fermionic excitation in the antiferromagnetic state of ytterbium zigzag chain

The emergence of charge-neutral fermionic excitations in magnetic systems is one of the unresolved issues in recent condensed matter physics. This type of excitations has been observed in various systems, such as low-dimensional quantum spin liquids, Kondo insulators, and antiferromagnetic insulators. Here, we report the presence of a pronounced gapless spin excitation in the low-temperature antiferromagnetic state of YbCuS2 semiconductor, where trivalent ytterbium atoms form a zigzag chain structure. We confirm the presence of this gapless excitations by a combination of experimental probes, namely 63/65Cu-nuclear magnetic resonance and nuclear quadrupole resonance, as well as specific heat measurements, revealing a linear low-temperature behavior of both the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 and the specific heat. This system provides a platform to investigate the origin of gapless excitations in spin chains and the relationship between emergent fermionic excitations and frustration.

Observation of local atomic displacements intrinsic to the double zigzag chain structure of 1T−MTe2 ( M=V, Nb, Ta )

We describe the existence of local distortion discovered in the synchrotron x-ray single-crystal structure analysis of layered ditelluride $1T\text{\ensuremath{-}}M{\mathrm{Te}}_{2} (M=\mathrm{V}$, Nb, Ta). In $1T\text{\ensuremath{-}}{\mathrm{TaTe}}_{2}$, the double zigzag chain structure of Ta is deformed at about 170 K, and heptamer molecules are formed periodically at low temperatures. We found that some of the Ta atoms that compose the double zigzag chain structure appearing at high temperatures are locally displaced, resulting in local dimerization. This tendency weakens when Ta is replaced by V or Nb. Our results indicate that the local distortion persistently survives in these ditellurides, where the electronic degrees of freedom, including orbitals, are weakened. We further discuss the origin of local distortion in these ditellurides, which is different from many usual material systems where molecular formation occurs at low temperatures.

Highly sensitive silver-based localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biosensor for microRNA-21 detection: Discrete dipole approximation together with molecular polarizability method

In this research, a highly sensitive gastric cancer biosensor based on the (LSPR) properties of silver nanoparticles has been produced to identify the microRNA-21. This biosensor has been analyzed by UV–Visible spectrophotometer (UV) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The obtained results show that our optimized synthesis process leads to the creation of approximately zig-zag chain structures consisting of 4 or 5 nanoparticles which can sense the cancer agent by a maximum shift in the plasmonic peak position. In addition, the mentioned results were confirmed by a comprehensive simulation of the biosensors using discrete dipole approximation (DDA) modified by the molecular polarizability method. The simulation process has been made by considering the effects of the actual molecular structures for both the receptor and target microRNAs on the surface of nanoparticles. The mentioned approach led to approximately accurate results that were matched with experimental achievements. This comparison indicates that the presented method is a suitable way for deep analysis of (LSPR)-based cancer biosensors.

Dysprosium Clusters from 3-Ethoxysalicylidene Terminal-Decorated Acylhydrazone Ligands: In Situ Ligand Transformation-Assisted Assembly and Zero-Field Single-Molecule Magnet Behaviors

High-performance polynuclear lanthanide single-molecule magnets (Ln-SMMs) are still scarce now. Herein, we report the assembly of three novel DyIII clusters, where in situ ligand transformation-assisted assembly offered a system with high SMM performance successfully. These clusters, [Dy6(bepho)3(NO3)6(CH3OH)3(H2O)3]·5CH3OH·CH3CN·2H2O (1), [Dy4(bepho)2(H3epho)2 (CH3OH)2]·2CH3OH (2), and [Dy5(eehz)3(eqzl)(μ-CH3O)(μ3-CH3O)2(μ4-O)(CH3OH)]·2CH3OH (3), were all assembled from 3-ethoxysalicylidene terminal-decorated acylhydrazones. H4bepho, H5epho, H3eehz, and Heqzl represent N,N′-bis(3-ethoxysalicylicdene)pyridine-2,6-dicarbohydrazide N-oxide, N-(3-ethoxysalicylidene)pyridine-2,6-dicarbohydrazide N-oxide, N-(3-ethoxysalicylicdene)-2-(3-ethoxysalicylideneamino)benzohydrazide, and 3-(3-ethoxysalicylicdeneamino)quinazolinone, respectively. Cluster 1 is built by H4bepho directly, showing a hexanuclear zig-zag chain structure, while for 2 and 3, their original ligands all undergo unprecedented in situ transformations during the assembly. H5epho featuring asymmetric chelating arms and Heqzl bearing the quinazolinone parent are formed in 2 and 3, respectively, and participate in the assembly of clusters along with original ligands. In 2, H4bepho and H5epho construct a quasi-linear {Dy4} topology. A unique pentanuclear core of 3 is assembled by H3eehz and Heqzl. It consists of a [Dy4] tetrahedron and a [Dy3] triangle unit sharing an edge. Clusters 1–3 all show zero-field SMM behaviors, and 2 displays two distinct relaxation processes. Strikingly, the quantum tunneling of magnetization (QTM) effect in 3 might be suppressed by intramolecular magnetic interactions associated with its unique cluster topology. The zero-field energy barrier (Ueff) of 3 reaches up to 211.3 K, which is among the high values for all polynuclear Ln-SMM species and also the second largest one in the {Ln5}-SMM family.

Mixed ligand Cd(II) coordination architectures based on bulky anthracene-9-carboxylate ligand: Crystal structures and optical properties

The reaction of cadmium nitrate with anthracene-9-carboxylic acid (HL) and two terpyridine derivatives, 4′-phenyl-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (L1) and 4′-(4-pyridyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (L2), led to the formation of two mixed-ligand coordination compounds, [Cd(C21H15N3)(C15H9O2)2] (1) and [Cd2(C20H14N4)2.5(C15H9O2)4]n (2). Coordination compounds were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV–Vis and luminescence spectroscopy. X-ray analysis of prepared coordination compounds reveals that 1 is single nuclear coordination complex, whereas 2 is a one-dimension coordination polymer with zigzag chain structure. The nature of L1 and L2 ligands has an essential influence on the molecular geometry and assembly, as well as on the physicochemical properties of complexes 1 and 2. Finally, 1D polymer 2 was utilized as a precursor for the fabrication of an organic light-emitting diode (OLED@2) whose emission wavelengths were investigated at different voltage.

Cu(II) coordination polymers containing dicyanamide and 2,2’-bipyridine: structural and antibacterial properties

From reaction mixture containing the same reagents, the two Cu(II) complexes, with dicyanamide (dca) bridges, [Cu(bpy)(dca)2]n (1) and [Cu(bpy)Cl(dca)]n.H2O (2) (bpy= 2,2’-bipyridine) were prepared. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal techniques. In both complexes, the geometry of the Cu(II) atom is best described as a slightly distorted square pyramidal. A zigzag chain structure is formed in both structures by dca units serving as an end-to end bridging ligand. In addition, studies on antibacterial activity of the compounds against Gram(+) (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC-6538) and Gram(-) (Escherichia coli ATTC-8739, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC-27853 and Enterobacter aerogenes ATCC-13048) bacteria have been performed using disc-diffusion and microdilution broth techniques. Both complexes were found to be significantly more effective against Gram(-) bacteria E. Coli than against the other bacteria.

Large-Scale 1T′-Phase Tungsten Disulfide Atomic Layers Grown by Gas-Source Chemical Vapor Deposition

The control of crystal polymorphism and exploration of metastable, two-dimensional, 1T'-phase, transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have received considerable research attention. 1T'-phase TMDs are expected to offer various opportunities for the study of basic condensed matter physics and for its use in important applications, such as devices with topological states for quantum computing, low-resistance contact for semiconducting TMDs, energy storage devices, and as hydrogen evolution catalysts. However, due to the high energy difference and phase change barrier between 1T' and the more stable 2H-phase, there are few methods that can be used to obtain monolayer 1T'-phase TMDs. Here, we report on the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of 1T'-phase WS2 atomic layers from gaseous precursors, i.e., H2S and WF6, with alkali metal assistance. The gaseous nature of the precursors, reducing properties of H2S, and presence of Na+, which acts as a countercation, provided an optimal environment for the growth of 1T'-phase WS2, resulting in the formation of high-quality submillimeter-sized crystals. The crystal structure was characterized by atomic-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy, and the zigzag chain structure of W atoms, which is characteristic of the 1T' structure, was clearly observed. Furthermore, the grown 1T'-phase WS2 showed superconductivity with the transition temperature in the 2.8-3.4 K range and large upper critical field anisotropy. Thus, alkali metal assisted gas-source CVD growth is useful for realizing large-scale, high-quality, phase-engineered TMD atomic layers via a bottom-up synthesis.

Syntheses, Structures, and Properties of Coordination Polymers with 2,5-Dihydroxy-1,4-Benzoquinone and 4,4'-Bipyridyl Synthesized by In Situ Hydrolysis Method.

The coordination polymers (CPs) with binary ligands, including 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (H2DHBQ) and 4,4′-bipyridyl (bpy), were synthesized using in situ hydrolysis of 2,5-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone (DMBQ). Three kinds of CPs were obtained depending on the metal ions. For M = Mn and Zn, a 1D zigzag chain structure with cis conformation (cis-1D-M) was obtained, whereas Co, Ni, and Cu compounds afforded a 2D net structure with trans conformation (trans-2D-M) with a 1D pore. A linear chain structure was also obtained for M = Cu. Magnetic susceptibility (χMT) at 300 K in cis-1D-Mn and trans-2D-Co was evaluated to be 4.421 and 2.950 cm3 K mol–1, respectively, indicating that both compounds are in the high-spin state. According to the N2 adsorption isotherms at 77 K, trans-2D-Ni showed microporosity with the BET surface area of 177 m2 g–1, whereas the isomorphic trans-2D-Co rarely adsorbed N2 at 77 K. This phenomenon was explained by the difference of diffusion kinetics of the adsorbent molecules, which was supported by the CO2 adsorption isotherms at 195 K. The optical band gaps of cis-1D-Mn, cis-1D-Zn, trans-2D-Co, and trans-2D-Ni were estimated to be 1.6, 1.8, 1.0, and 1.1 eV, respectively, by using UV–vis–NIR spectroscopy.

A dual-functional Zn(II) coordination polymer for detection of Cr(VI) and photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B in aqueous solution

Herein, a new kind of zinc(II)-coordination polymer (CP-1) was constructed and structurally characterized. CP-1 features a 1D zigzag chain structure, and the 1D framework forms a 3D supramolecular network through intermolecular hydrogen bonding of C-H···Cl. It is worth mentioning that CP-1 can serve as a dual-functional material. First of all, It shows good selectivity, high sensitivity, and good recyclability in sensing CrO42· and Cr2O72· anions in aqueous solution through luminescence quenching effect. The high quenching efficiency can be attributed to the competitive absorption and the energy transfer. Meanwhile, it also exhibits high photocatalytic efficiency for the degradation of rhodamine B in aqueous solution under the irradiation of UV light, and the possible mechanism is also discussed.

Diversity of Metal-Fullerene Framework Structures Regulated by Metal Salts.

Taking into account the diversity of fullerene ligands and metal salts, metal–fullerene frameworks (MFFs) present a variety of structures. Currently, the structural control of MFFs mainly relies on the design and synthesis of fullerene ligands, while the influence of metal building units on the structures has been rarely studied. The present work represents a systematical investigation of fullerene-linked supramolecular architectures incorporating different metal salts. Treatment of a bidentate N,N-donors fullerene ligand (L1) with six metal salts ([Zn(NO3)2·6H2O, Cd(NO3)2·4H2O, Cu(NO3)2·3H2O, Cu(OAc)2·H2O, FeCl2·4H2O and FeCl3·6H2O]) produced six one-dimensional MFFs, i.e., ZnL1(NO3)2(H2O)2 (1), CdL1(NO3)2 (2), Cu(L1)(H2O)2(NO3)2 (3), CuL1(OAc)(CH3O) (4), FeL1Cl2 (5) and FeL1Cl2(FeCl4) (6). Compounds 1–3, built with nitrates with different metal centers (M(NO3)2, M = Zn, Cd, Cu), present a 1D stair-like, 1D zigzag, and 1D linear chain structure, respectively. Compound 4, synthesized with another Cu(II) salt, Cu(OAc)2, displays a dinuclear Cu-Cu connected 1D stair-like chain structure, rather than the single Cu linked 1D linear chain obtained from Cu(NO3)2. Compounds 5 and 6, assembled from iron chloride of different oxidation states (Fe(II)Cl2 and Fe(III)Cl3) reveal a 1D zigzag and a 1D stair-like chain structure, respectively. The results demonstrate the significant influences of metal salts on the structures of metal–fullerene frameworks.

Synthesis and structures of copper coordination polymers incorporating a bis-pyridyl-bis-amine ligand

A new bis-pyridyl-bis-amine ligand, namely N,Nʹ-bis(pyridin-3-ylmethyl)-1,2-ethylenediamine (bpmen), has assembled with Cu(II) salts of sulfate and nitrate to yield corresponding Cu coordination polymers {[Cu(H2bpmen)(H2O)4](SO4)2∙2H2O}n (1) and {[Cu(bpmen)](NO3)}n (2). Compound 1 has a cationic simple coordination chain structure, where the Cu(II) center has an octahedral geometry consisting of N2O4 donors and the protonated H2bpmen2+ ligand suits a bis-monodentate coordination mode with the –CH2NHCH2CH2NHCH2- backbone in a GGTGG conformation, where G and T devoted as gauche and trans conformations, respectively. Numerous hydrogen-bonding interactions make 1 to form a three-dimensional neutral supramolecular hydrogen-bonded net. For synthesizing 2, the starting Cu(II) cations are reduced to Cu(I) cations by bpmen ligands during the assembly process. Compound 2 has a cationic double-stranded zigzag chain structure, where the Cu(I) center has a tetrahedral geometry composing of N4 donors and the bpmen ligand adopts a chelating-bridging mode with the –CH2NHCH2CH2NHCH2- backbone in a TGGTT conformation. A variety of framework … nitrate hydrogen-bonding interactions results in a two-dimensional neutral supramolecular hydrogen-bonded layer. Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis showed that the coordination frameworks of 1 and 2 after releasing lattice and coordination water molecules are thermally stable up to approaching 252 and 210 ​°C, respectively. Solid-state emission spectra of 1 and 2 exhibited no and weak luminescence emission bands, respectively, upon irradiation.

Structural diversity of Mn(II) and Cu(II) complexes based on 2-carboxyphenoxyacetate linker: Syntheses, conformation comparison and magnetic properties

Four new binary complexes with 2-carboxyphenoxyacetic acid ligand (2-H2cpa), namely [Mn(2-cpa)(H2O)3] (0D-Mn), [Cu(2-cpa)(H2O)3] (0D-Cu), [Mn(2-cpa)(H2O)]n (1D-Mn) and [Cu(2-cpa)(H2O)]n (2D-Cu), have been successfully prepared and systematically characterized. Structure analyses indicated that 0D-Mn and 0D-Cu are isomorphous mononuclear species in which the 2-carboxyphenoxyacetate (2-cpa) is a tridentate chelate anionic ligand. 1D-Mn is a 1D zigzag chain structure formed by the tetradentate bridging chelate-μ2 coordination pattern of 2-cpa connecting adjacent MnII ions. While 2D-Cu is a 2D corrugated (4,4)-connected layer and 2-cpa adopts pentadentate double bridging chelate-μ3 coordination mode in it. The different synthetic conditions, crystal structures and conformation of 2-cpa in the above compounds have been carefully analyzed and the results revealed that the synthetic conditions and flexible conformation of 2-cpa may be responsible for the structural diversity of binary 2-cpa metal complex system. In addition, the magnetic measurements showed that between the neighbouring metal ions there are weak ferromagnetic exchange in 0D-Mn and 0D-Cu, but antiferromagnetic coupling in 1D-Mn and 2D-Cu, respectively.

An Azido-Bridged Dysprosium Chain Complex Showing Zero-field Slow Magnetic Relaxation.

A one-dimensional (1D) azido-bridged dysprosium coordination polymer featuring a zig-zag chain structure constructed from a halogen-functionalized quinoline derivative and N3 - ligands was structurally and magnetically characterized. Magnetic studies revealed that the chain complex exhibits zero-field slow magnetic relaxation and a significant butterfly-like hysteresis loop, originating from highly magnetic anisotropy of the Dy3+ ions in a D4d symmetry. This compound represents the first azido-bridged lanthanide chain showing zero-field slow magnetic relaxation behavior. These results highlight that the combination of high symmetric Ln3+ ions with the versatile azido bridging ligand provides an effective approach for the design and construction of advanced lanthanides molecular magnets.

Five organotin complexes derived from hydroxycinnamic acid ligands: Synthesis, structure, in vitro cytostatic activity and binding interaction with BSA

Five new organotin(IV) hydroxycinnamates, [(Me3Sn)HL1]n (1), [(Ph3Sn)2L1]n (2), (n-Bu2Sn)(HL1)2 (3), [(Me3Sn)HL2]n (4), [(Ph3Sn)2L2]n (5), have been synthesized by the reactions of R3SnCl (R = Me, Ph) or n-Bu2SnO with the corresponding hydroxycinnamic acid proligands [H2L1 = 4-OH-3-CH3OC6H3CH=CHCOOH, ferulic acid; H2L2 = 4-OH-3,5-(CH3O)2C6H2CH=CHCOOH, sinapic acid]. All the complexes have been characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, NMR (1H, 13C and 119Sn), FT-IR, and PXRD (Powder X-ray diffraction). The structural analyses reveal that complexes 1, 2 and 5 display 1D infinite zig-zag chain structure, in which the 1D chains are further linked into a 3D supramolecular structure through intermolecular O-H···O interactions (for complex 1) or C-H···O interactions (for complex 5). Complex 3 presents mononuclear tin monomer and further constructs 2D planar supramolecular structure through intermolecular O-H···O interactions. Complex 4 displays 1D right-handed helical chain and further connects into a 3D supramolecular architecture through intermolecular O-H···O interactions. Furthermore, the in vitro cytostatic activity of complexes 1-5 was preliminarily evaluated by MTT method, and the results showed that complexes 2, 3 and 5 exhibited high cytostatic activity. The protein-binding properties of complexes 2, 3 and 5 were also investigated, which indicated these complexes could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA in a static way.

Synthesis of luminescent phosphine-containing rigid-rod dinuclear alkynylgold(I) complexes and their X-Ray structural, photophysical, self-assembly and electroluminescence studies

A series of rigid-rod dinuclear alkynylgold(I) complexes bearing triethylene glycol monomethyl ether or dibutoxy-substituted oligo(p-phenylene ethynylene)s moieties as the backbone, and phosphine ligands that are charge-neutral or bear a positive or negative charge, has been designed and synthesized. The alkynylgold(I) complexes with charge-neutral phosphines are found to show polymeric zig-zag chain structure with short gold‧‧‧gold distances in their X-ray crystal structures, while those with negatively charged phosphine ligands demonstrate spherical aggregates in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-water dispersions. The aggregation behaviour of the complex with positively charged phosphine ligand is found to follow an isodesmic mechanism upon increasing the water content in DMSO. Representative complexes have been applied as the emitting material in solution-processed organic light-emitting devices, exhibiting sky-blue emission with emission maxima at 432 nm. This work has provided further insights into the aggregation behaviour of this class of alkynylgold(I) complexes, as well as the understanding of their molecular packing and alignment for the future design of structurally-related rigid-rod organometallic materials.

A 1D palladium coordination polymer and its catalytic activity in microwave-assisted Sonogashira reactions

A palladium coordination polymer, [Pd(dppp)(L)](OTf)2·(H2O)] (1) (dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane), was prepared from a bipyridine-type ligand (L = (4-py)–CH = N–C10H6–N = CH–(4-py)) and [Pd(dppp)](OTf)2. An X-ray diffraction study showed that it has a one-dimensional zigzag chain structure and the triflate ions act as counterions. Compound 1 exhibited Sonogashira coupling reactivity in air under microwave conditions.

The anions effect construction of their 1D chain structural diversity through different π interactions. Compound 1 through the adjacent pyridine rings parallel π∙∙∙π interactions formed 1D linear chain structure.

Compound 4 through ClO4− anion∙∙∙π interactions formed 1D ribbon chain structure. Compound 5 through parallel π∙∙∙π interactions of the adjacent naphthalene diimide planes and pyridine rings formed 1D ladder chain structure. The five compounds’ fluorescence properties and thermal stabilities were investigated. The compound 2 solution could fluorescence detection for iodide anion via fluorescence quenching.
