摘 要:The Eu(Ⅲ) nitrate complex of the meso-N,N’-bis(2-pyridylmethylene)-1,2-(R,S)-cyclohexanediamine ligand was synthesized and characterized by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction.The crystal lattice of the complex is capable of absorbing and desorbing selectively acetonitrile molecules,at 293 K upon an acetonitrile vapor pressure of ~0.1 × 105 Pa.This process,which is partially reversible,can be easily followed by both powder X-ray diffraction(P-XRD) and Eu(III) luminescence spectroscopy.The acetonitrile molecule,located in the outer coordination sphere of the metal ion,does not affect the radiative transition probability of 5 D0 level of Eu(Ⅲ) and also it does not activate further non-radiative channels from this level.On the other hand,this molecule is capable of affecting the energy position and intensities of the crystal field components of the 5 D0 →7 F2 transition.The complex in solid form can be considered a promising material for the optical sensing of acetonitrile vapors.
