Abstract
Amidine-based ligand frameworks were employed to isolate a series of mononuclear lanthanide complexes. The employed N-2-pyridylimidoyl-2-pyridylamidine (Py2ImAm) undergoes metal-assisted hydrolysis yielding the ligand 2-amidinopyridine (PyAm), which coordinates to the lanthanide ions affording [Ln(acac)3(PyAm)], where Ln = Eu(III) (1), Gd(III) (2), Tb(III) (3), Dy(III) (4) along with the Y(III) analogue (5). The Eu(III), Tb(III), and Dy(III) congeners exhibit characteristic emissions of red, green, and yellow light, respectively, with emission quantum yields of 3, 65, and 8%, respectively. Due to changes in the thermal population of the Stark sublevels, the Tb(III) and Dy(III) complexes can be used as efficient optical thermometers with maximum relative sensitivities of 1.57 and 2.03% K-1 for 3 and 4, respectively. These results demonstrate the viability of PyAm as an antenna for the sensitization of lanthanide ions.
