Undoubtably, it is challenging to simultaneously determine
the
identity, enantiomeric excess (ee), and total concentration of an
enantiomer by just one optical measurement. Herein, we design a chiral
tetrahedron Eu4(LR
)4 with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), which presents highly
selective/stereoselective, rapid, and “turn-on” CPL
response to chiral diamines, rather than the monoamino compounds,
such as monoamines or amino alcohols. By recording the left- and right-CPL
intensities of the Eu3+ ion at 591 nm, the enantiomeric
composition and concentration of chiral diamines can be simultaneously
determined by monitoring the g
lum value
and total emission intensity (I
L + I
R), respectively. Spectroscopy analyses demonstrate
that the variations of g
lum depend on
the inversion and maintenance of configuration around the Eu3+ ion (Δ ↔ Λ), while the “turn-on”
response arises from the raising of the T1 state of the
ligand. The molecule/electron structural variations are proposed from
the synergetic supramolecular interactions of NH2 groups
with pendant diols and trifluoroacetyl groups.
To develop the strong near-infrared circularly polarized luminescent (NIR-CPL) emitters, a pair of ytterbium helicates, [Yb2(R-BTHP)4]2‒ and [Yb2(S-BTHP)4]2‒ based on the binaphthol modified bis-β-diketones are synthesized. X-ray crystallography analysis confirms...
Chiral supramolecular lanthanide-helicates are regarded as promising chiroptical materials due to their combination of ground and excited state chirality and special luminescence property from Ln3+, named as circularly polarized luminescence...
Chiral luminescent lanthanide supramolecular complexes have attracted much recent attention due to their excellent circularly polarized luminescence properties. Herein, a sandwich Eu(III) complex, (HNEt3)[EuL2] was prepared by the Eu3+ ion...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
