Photoluminescence properties of a cationic trinuclear zinc(II) complex with the tetradentate Schiff base ligand 6-methyl-2-({[(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]imino}methyl)phenolate

Abstract: Metal complexes with Schiff base ligands have been suggested as potential phosphors in electroluminescent devices. In the title complex, tetrakis[6-methyl-2-({[(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]imino}methyl)phenolato-1:2κ(8)N,N',O:O;3:2κ(8)N,N',O:O]trizinc(II) hexafluoridophosphate methanol monosolvate, [Zn3(C14H13N2O)4](PF6)2·CH3OH, the Zn(II) cations adopt both six- and four-coordinate geometries involving the N and O atoms of tetradentate 6-methyl-2-({[(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]imino}methyl)phenolate ligands. Two terminal Zn… Show more

“…Since all three Zn atoms lie on the twofold axis, the Zn1-Zn2-Zn3 bond angle is exactly 180 . These metrical parameters are similar to those found in the most closely similar complex (Kim et al, 2015) where Zn-O distances for the terminal Zn atoms range from 2.126 (3) to 2.155 (4) Å while those for the central Zn atom range from 1.945 (3) to 1.965 (4) Å with Zn-O-Zn bridging angles ranging from 97.3 (1) to 98.7 (1) . The Zn-N imine and Zn-N py bond lengths range from 2.077 (4) to 2.117 (4) Å and 2.140 (4) to 2.176 (4) Å , respectively.…”

“…The coordination environment of the title compound, illustrated in Fig. 1, has been observed in zinc(II) complexes with tridentate N,N,O ligands (Hens & Rajak, 2015;Kim et al, 2015). Transition metal complexes of the related tridentate ligand, 1,3(2-pyridyliminomethyl)phenylenediamine, have been shown to form a variety of interesting complex structures (Kundu et al, 2015;Kumar et al, 2011;Bluhm et al, 2003;Souza et al, 2011;Sanyal et al, 2014;Okeke et al, 2017a,b;Okeke et al, 2018).…”

“…A wide variety of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ligands has been used to construct coordination complexes (Lin et al, 2015;Kim et al, 2015;Huang et al, 2015). In particular, pyridine alcohol derivatives and their metal complexes have been studied extensively in recent years, focusing on the rational design and synthesis of coordination monomers and polymers because of their intriguing structural features as well as potential applications in catalysis and fluorescence and as chemical sensors (Ley et al, 2010).…”
