Two new benzo-[15]-crown-5 attached phenanthroline platinum(II) complexes with the gen- eral formula Pt(phen)X2, where X = Cl (1), C≡CC6H5 (2) have been synthesized, and their absorption and luminescence response towards metal ions have been studied.
A water soluble poly-[tetrakis-(2,3-dicarboxylate phenoxy) methyl methan] aluminum phthalocyanine (AlPPc.(COOH)x) has been synthesized from the cyclization of tetranuclear phthalonitrile and successive hydrolysis of cyano in alkaline solution. The absorption spectra showed low aggregation of this compound in pH 9.18 buffer than that of existing water soluble phthalocyanine compounds. With the addition of Triton X 100, an enhancement of fluorescence emission with quantum yield from 0.4 to 0.83 was observed; contrarily, it was thoroughly quenched by the addition of CATB in suit. A longer life time of singlet state was also detected in presence of Triton X 100. The result indicates that AlPPc.(COOH)x is desired to investigate in fluorescent probe or in fluorescence imaging diagnose.
A chiral complex of (R,R)-Pd was prepared by reaction of optically pure (R,R)-bis(pyrrol-2-ylmethyl-eneamino) cyclohexane ligand with Pd(OAc)2·2H2O under the base condition at room temperature. The weak intermolecular C-H···Pd interaction was found to be responsible for the homochiral M helix for-mation of the neutral,chiral,mononuclear (R,R)-Pd in the crystal packing.
