Three lanthanide(Ⅱ)complexes,[LaL2(NO3)3]·CH3CN(1),[Ln(L)(NO3)3(H2O)](Ln=Tb(2)and Dy(3)) based on L(L=N-phenyl-2-(5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy)acetamide)have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses,IR spectra and X-ray diffraction analyses.The results reveal that the La(Ⅱ)ion in complex 1 is surrounded by two tridentate amide ligands with NO2donor set and three bidentate nitrate anions,thus giving distorted icosahedron coordination geometry.By contrast,both complexes 2 and 3 are isostructral with those of the Pr,Nd,Sm,Eu,Gd and Er complexes bearing same ligand.In each complex,the center Ln(Ⅱ)ion with bicapped square antiprism coordination geometry is coordinated by one tridentate L,three bidentate nitrate anions and one water molecule.In addition,in solid state,complexes 2 and 3 could exhibit strong fluorescence emission in the visible region.CCDC:1438578,1;1438579,2;1438580,3.

The amide open chain ligands are a well suited type of antenna for lanthanide(Ⅱ)(Ln)ions,because they could shield the encapsulated lanthanide ion from interaction with the surroundings effectively,and thus to achieve strong fluorescent emission of metal ions[1-7].Up to now,a large amount of Eu(Ⅱ)and Tb(Ⅱ) complexes bearing such type of ligands have been widelyinvestigatedprimarilyduetotheirgoodluminescent properties[8-9].Recently,our previous work has demonstrated that the Sm(Ⅱ)and Eu(Ⅱ)complexes withN-phenyl-2-(5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxl)acetamide exhibit the characteristic emission of the Eu(Ⅱ)and Sm(Ⅱ)ions,respectively[10-11].As a continuation of our research,we report here the structures of the ligands another three Ln(Ⅱ)complexes(Ln=La,Tb and Dy), together with their fluorescence properties in solid state.

2 Results and discussion

2.1 Crystal structure of the complexes

Generally,N-phenyl-2-(5-chloro-quinolin-8-yloxy) acetamide ligand coordinates to Ln(Ⅱ)ions with molar ratio of ligand and metal being 1∶1[10-11].By contrast,it forms stable 2∶1 type complex with La(Ⅱ)ion.As shown in Fig.1a,La(Ⅱ)ion in complex 1 is surrounded by two tridentate amide ligands with NO2donor set andthreebidentatenitrateanions,thusgiving distorted icosahedron coordination geometry(Fig.1d). The La-O/N bond lengths are in the range of 0.254 8(4)～0.283 1(4)nm(Table 2),comparable to the La(Ⅱ) complexes with similar donor sets[6-7].The crystal structure of 1 is similar as that of[LaLa2(NO3)3]and [LaLb2(NO3)3]·H2O in our previous work[6-7](La=N,N-diphenyl-2-(quinolin-8-yloxy)acetamide,Lb=N-(naphthalene-1-yl)-2-(quinolin-8-yloxy)acetamide).In the crystal,pairs of intermolecular N-H…O hydrogen bonds between the amide N atoms and adjacent nitrate O atoms link the complexes into chains along c axis(Fig.1e).

Complexes 2(Fig.1b)and 3(Fig.1c)are isostructural and crystallize in the monoclinic,space group P21/c,same as the Pr(Ⅱ),Nd(Ⅱ),Sm(Ⅱ),Eu(Ⅱ),Gd(Ⅱ) and Er(Ⅱ)complexes with same ligand[10-11].The center Ln(Ⅱ)ion with bicapped square antiprism coordination geometry is coordinated by one tridentate L,three bidentate nitrate anions and one water molecule. Similarly,inthecrystalofeachcomplex, intermolecular O-H…O(O12-H12A…O4iiiand O12-H12B…O8iv)and N-H…O(N2-H2A...O3v)hydrogen bonds link the complex into a 2D supramolecular network(Fig.1f,Symmetry codes:iii-x+1,y+1/2,-z+1/2;iv-x+1,y-1/2,-z+1/2;v-x+1,-y,-z.

2.2 IR spectra

The spectral regions for all the complexes are moreorlesssimilarduetothesimilarityin coordination modes of the ligand with the metal center.The free ligand L exhibit three absorption bands at 1 682,1 598 and 1 241 cm-1,assigned to ν(C=O),ν(C=N)and ν(C-O-C),respectively[10]. However,in the complexes,such bands shift evidently to lower frequency,indicating that the oxygen atoms of the carbonyl group,quinoline nitrogen atoms and ethereal oxygen atoms take part in coordination to the central Ln(Ⅱ)ion[3-5].Additionally,the general pattern oftheIRspectroscopysupportsthenormal coordination of the bidentate nitrate group[6-7].It is in accordance with the result of the crystal structure study.

2.4 UV spectra

Fig.2UV spectra of the ligand L(a),1(b),2(c)and 3 (d)in the acetone solution at room temperature

The UV spectra of the ligand L and complexes 1～3 in acetone solution(1×10-5mol·L-1)were measured at room temperature(Fig.2).The spectra of L features two main bands located around 240(ε= 304 366 L·mol-1·cm-1)and 272 nm(ε=169 788 L·mol-1·cm-1).The bands could be assigned to characteristic π-π*transitions centered on benzene and quinoline units,respectively[6].Similar bands can be observed in the spectra of 1(241 nm,ε=174 235 L·mol-1· cm-1;273 nm,ε=168 132 L·mol-1·cm-1),2(241 nm, ε=107 529 L·mol-1·cm-1;273 nm,ε=146 195 L·mol-1·cm-1)and 3(242 nm,ε=98 529 L·mol-1·cm-1;273 nm,ε=145 803 L·mol-1·cm-1).However,the hyperchromicities indicate that the ligand L takes part in the coordination in all complexes.

2.4 Fluorescence spectra

The fluorescence spectra of the ligand L and complexes 1～3 have been studied in solid state at room temperature.The results show that the emission spectra of the ligand L and complex 1 exhibit similar emission peak at about 400 nm when excited at 310 nm.It also can be seen that the emission intensity of the complex 1 is much higher than that of L,which may be explained from two aspects:first,in the complex 1,the molar ratio of the ligand and La(Ⅱ) ion is 2∶1;second,the coordination of La(Ⅱ)ion may enhancetheπ→π*electrontransitionofthe acetamide ligand[6].By contrast,complexes 2 and 3 show quite different peak at about 500 nm.Thebehavior of Tb(Ⅱ)and Dy(Ⅱ)ions coordinated to the ligand is regarded as that of emissive species resulted from a CHEF effect(chelation enhancement of the fluorescence emission)[7].
