Abstract

The triple-decker complex [Yb₃L₃(OAc) ₂Cl](H₂O)₃(CH₃OH) _1.5(CH₃CN)_0.5 (1) is formed from the reaction of H₂L, YbCl₃·6H₂O, and Zn(OAc) ₂·2H₂O in 25% yield (H₂L = N,N′-bis(5-bromo-3-methoxysalicylidene)phenylene-1,2-diamine). The single-crystal X-ray structure of 1 revealed the presence of two independent, chiral molecules of 1 in the asymmetric unit. Intermolecular π-π stacking and C-H·π interactions between both sets of Yb₃L ₃ units create two one-dimensional strands, A and B. Strands of A are cross-linked via Br⋯H-C hydrogen bonds creating a three-dimensional network that encloses the B strands. Near-infrared (NIR) lanthanide luminescence in both the solid state and the solution is observed in 1.
