Poly(MMA-co-FMA) as a platform for tuning emission by clicking with luminescent lanthanide complexes

Abstract

In this work, we report a facile approach to prepare lanthanide metallopolymers with tunable photoluminescence by Diels–Alder reaction between poly(MMA-co-FMA) and lanthanide complexes. Emission colors including white light can be regulated by varying the feed ratios of the lanthanide complexes. This straightforward strategy gives us access to the construction of metallopolymers.
