Luminescent transition metal complexes as sensors: structural effects on pH response.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A series of luminescent transition metal complexes using the pH-sensitive ligand 5-carboxy-1,10-phenanthroline has been synthesized and characterized. The complexes, based on Ru(II) and Re(I), show monotonic changes in both luminescent intensity and lifetime with pH values over the range 2 < pH < 9. The impact of various structural features on both the range of pH sensitivity and dynamic response was studied using both intensity and lifetime measurements. It was possible to predictably tune the pH sensitivity range over about 1.5 pKa units. While significant variation in the dynamic response range was observed, the correlation with structural features needs further study.

Pyridylpyrrolides as alternatives to cyclometalated phenylpyridine ligands: synthesis and characterization of luminescent zinc and boron pyridylpyrrolide complexes.
The synthesis, structure, and properties of six luminescent pyridylpyrrolide complexes and the first structural characterization of pyridylpyrrolide metal complexes are reported. A series of new zinc complexes, bis(pyridylpyrrolyl)zinc, (R2PyrPy)2Zn (R = Me, Et, iPr, tBu, and Ph), that vary in their substituents on the pyrrole ring (Me, Et, iPr, tBu, and Ph), were prepared. Pyrrole substitution...
متن کاملLuminescent sensing and formation of mixed f-d metal ion complexes between a Eu(iii)-cyclen-phen conjugate and Cu(ii), Fe(ii), and Co(ii) in buffered aqueous solution.
The synthesis and photophysical properties of the Eu(iii) complex , based on the use of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) as a combined sensitizing antenna and a transition metal ion coordinating ligand, is described. The long-wavelength Eu(iii) emission from this complex was found to be highly pH sensitive, giving rise to a 'off-on-off' pH profile with maximum emission occurring within the physiologi...
متن کاملBioactive Salen-type Schiff Base Transition Metal Complexes as Possible Anticancer Agents
Although metal-based anticancer drugs have been recognized as the most effective agents over the organic compounds, non-selectivity and high toxic effects have limited their applications in a way that only three Pt-analogues have progressed into clinical use. These problems have spurred chemists to develop different strategies based on alternative targets. This work focuses on predicting potenc...

A series of substituted 1,4,7,10-tetraazacylcododecane ligands 1-4, possessing sensitizing nitrobenzene or naphthalene antennae, as one of the amide pendant arms, and their complexes with europium(III) were synthesised. The protonation constants and the metal ion stability constants of two of these ligands were determined by potentiometric titration. The pK(a) of the water molecules coordinated...
