Title: Observation of divergent La{sup 3+} ion dilute effect in two series of 3-D fluorescent lanthanide-MOFs-based molecular alloys RE{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC (RE{sup 3+}=Eu{sup 3+} or Tb{sup 3+}; EBTC{sup 4−}=1,1′-ethynebenzene-3,3′,5,5′-etracarboxylate)

Abstract

The lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) [Ln{sub 2}(EBTC){sub 1.5}(CH{sub 3}OH){sub 4}]·6H{sub 2}O are isostructural to each other, where EBTC{sup 4−}=1,1′-ethynebenzene-3,3′,5,5′-tetracarboxylate; Ln{sup 3+}=La{sup 3+}, Eu{sup 3+} and Tb{sup 3+}; and the corresponding MOF is abbreviated as Ln–EBTC. MOFs Eu–EBTC and Tb–EBTC emit intense red and green luminescence (visible by bare eyes), respectively. The molecular alloys of Eu{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC and Tb{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC have been successfully prepared by mixing Eu{sup 3+}/Tb{sup 3+} and La{sup 3+} salts with the desired molar ratio in the starting material. Two series of Eu{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC and Tb{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC molecular alloys are isomorphic to the parent Ln–EBTC MOFs, while exhibit divergent La{sup 3+} ion diluting effect, namely, with increasing the relative amount of La{sup 3+}, the intensity of characteristic emission arising from Tb{sup 3+} ion monotonely increases in Tb{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC molecular alloys, whereas that of Eu{sup 3+} ion shows non-monotone decrease in Eu{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC molecular alloys. The possible origin is discussed for such a divergent behavior between Eu{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC and Tb{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC molecular alloys. - Graphical abstract: Two series of 3-D fluorescent lanthanide-MOFs-based molecular alloys RE{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC (RE{sup 3+}=Eu{sup 3+} or Tb{sup 3+}; EBTC{sup 4−}=1,1′-ethynebenzene-3,3′,5,5′-tetracarboxylate) have been successfully prepared by mixingmore » Eu{sup 3+}/Tb{sup 3+} and La{sup 3+} salts with the desired molar ratio in the starting material and showed photoluminescence property with divergent La{sup 3+} ion dilute effect. - Highlights: • 3-D molecular alloys of Eu{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC and Tb{sub x}La{sub 1−x}–EBTC were prepared. • They are isomorphic to the parent Ln–EBTC MOFs. • They show photoluminescence property with divergent La{sup 3+} ion diluting effect. • The possible origin is discussed for such a divergent behavior.« less
