A new hexanuclear copper(Ⅱ) complex,[Cu 6 (DPPZ) 4 (btc) 4 (H 2 O) 8 ]·5H 2 O (1,DPPZ=dipyrido[3,2-a:2,3-c]phenazine,H 3 btc=1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid),has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction,elemental analyses,IR,and thermogravimetric analysis.Its crystal structure is of triclinic system,space group P1 with a=12.489(4),b=14.234(5),c=14.484(5),α=82.848(4),β=79.399(4),γ=73.646(4)°,V=2421.2(13) 3,Z=1,Cu 6 C 108 H 78 N 16 O 37,M r=2573.17,D c=1.752 g/cm 3,μ=1.398 mm-1,F(000)=1308,GOOF=1.011,the final R=0.0495 and wR=0.1030 for 5420 observed reflections with I 2σ(Ⅰ).In 1,four btc 3ligands act as bridges between six neighboring Cu atoms to form an unusual hexanuclear copper cluster.The clusters are further connected by two types of O-H···O and O-H···N hydrogen bonds,generating a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.In addition,intermolecular and intramolecular π-π stacking interactions further consolidate the three-dimensional supramolecular framework of 1.
Two new metal-organic complexes,{[Co2(bptc)(DPPZ)2(H2O)2]·H2O}n 1 and {[Co2(ccm)2(DPPZ)2]·2H2O}n 2,were obtained by the hydrothermal reactions of Co(NO3)2·6H2O with chelating ligand dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine(DPPZ) and the corresponding carboxylic acid,namely,3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid(H4bptc) or 2-carboxycinnamic acid(H2ccm),respectively.The complexes were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction,elemental analyses,IR spectra,and thermal gravimetry.1 presents unique chiral chain structures,which are further consolidated into three-dimensional supramolecular frameworks via noncovalent bonds,such as hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions.2 features infinite double-chain structures,which are connected by strong π-π interactions to result in three-dimensional supramolecular architectures.
High response organic ultraviolet photodetectors(UV-PDs) were demonstrated with 4,4',4”- tris[3-methyl-pheny(phenyl)amino]triphenylamine(m-MTDATA) and two Re(Ⅰ) complexes, (bathocuproine)- Re(CO)3CI(Re-BCP) and (bathophenanthroline)Re(CO)3Cl(Re-Bphen) to act as the electron donor and acceptor, re- spectively. UV-PDs have the configuration of indium tin oxide(ITO)/m-MTDATA(25 nm)/m-MTDATA:Re-complex (25-35 nm)/Re-complex(20 nm)/LiF(l nm)/Al(200 nm) with different blend layer thicknesses of 25, 30 and 35 nm. The optimized PD based on Re-Bphen offers a corrected-dark photocurrent up to 760μA/cm^2 at -10 V, corresponding to a response of 310 mA/W which is among the best values reported for organic UV-PDs. Excellent electron transport ability makes for such high photo-to-electron conversion.
