Octahedral Yb(iii) complexes embedded in [CoIII(CN)6]-bridged coordination chains: combining sensitized near-infrared fluorescence with slow magnetic relaxation

Abstract

Ytterbium (3+) ions combined with 3-pyridone and hexacyanido-cobaltate(III) anions in a concentrated aqueous solution produce cyanido-bridged {[YbIII(3-pyridone)2(H2O)2][CoIII(CN)6]} (1) chains. The resulting YbIII complexes of an elongated octahedral geometry reveal two coexisting functionalities: a field-induced slow magnetic relaxation with an energy barrier of ΔE/kB = 45(1) K at Hdc = 1 kOe, and an YbIII-centered near-infrared fluorescence in the 950–1100 nm range sensitized by 3-pyridone and [CoIII(CN)6]3−.
