Luminescent oligomers and polymers doped with silver(I) salts were used as optical sensors for ethylene and other gaseous small molecules. Films of poly(vinylphenylketone) (PVPK) or 1,4-bis(methylstyryl)benzene (BMSB) impregnated with AgBF4, AgSbF6, or AgB(C6F 5)4 respond to ethylene exposures with a reversible emission quenching that is proportional to the pressure of the gas. Experiments with various analytes revealed that only gases capable of forming coordinate bonds with Ag(I) ions (i.e., ethylene, propylene, and ammonia) produced a sensing response. Comparison of the effects of ethylene and tetradeuterioethylene revealed that the emission quenching was due to enhanced vibrational relaxation. The Ag(I) ions are essential to the observed optical response. The oligomer/polymer support enhances the response characteristics of the impregnated salt by promoting separation of Ag(I) from its anion, a separation that improves accessibility of the Ag(I) ion to the gaseous analytes. Salts with large lattice energies, where the anion is not dissociated from Ag(I) in the matrix, fail to sensitize film responses. Photoluminescence experiments with Ag(I)-impregnated BMSB films established that the Ag(I) ions serve to communicate the analyte-binding signal to the support by altering the support-based emission. These experiments demonstrate a sensing paradigm where simultaneous coordination of Ag(I) ions to the support matrix and to a gaseous analyte enables the optical response.
Facile oxidation-based synthesis of sterically encumbered four-coordinate bis(2,9-di-tert-butyl-1,10-phenanthroline)copper(I) and related three-coordinate copper(I) complexes

A new oxidation-based synthetic route was developed for synthesis of Cu(I) complexes with weakly coordinating ligands, leading to the synthesis of the elusive [Cu(dtbp)2]+ (dtbp, 2,9-di-tert-butyl-1,10- phenanthroline) complex that may be useful as a sensor or as a dye for dye-sensitized solar cells. An acetone solution of either 1 or 2 equiv of dtbp was added to excess Cu(0) and 1 equiv of AgY (Y is O3SCF 3-, BF4-, SbFe6 -, or B(C6F5)4-) in a nitrogen-filled glove box. Following filtration and evaporation under vacuum, crystallization from CH2Cl2 and hexanes results in X-ray quality crystals of Cu(dtbp)(O3SCF3) (1), Cu(dtbp)(BF 4) (2), [Cu(dtbp)(acetone)][SbF6] (3), [Cu(dtbp) 2]-[B(C6F5)4]·CH 2Cl2 (4·CH2Cl2), [Cu(dtbp)2][BF4]·CH2Cl2 (5·CH2Cl2), and [Cu(dtbp)2][SbF 6]·CH2Cl2 (6·CH 2Cl2). Complexes 1-6 were characterized by X-ray crystallography and NMR. The Cu atom in complexes 1-3 exhibited distorted trigonal coordination geometries, reflecting the steric effect of the bulky tert-butyl substituents. The structures of the pseudotetrahedral complexes 4, 4·CH2Cl2, 5·CH2Cl2, and 6·CH2Cl2 revealed the longest average Cu-N distances (2.11 A, 2.11 A, 2.10 A, and 2.11 A, respectively) in this class of compounds-longer by more than three standard deviations from the average.
