Polyoxometalate-based room-temperature phosphorescent materials induced by anion–π interactions†
Abstract
A series of host–guest materials containing polyoxometalate anions and lanthanide-organic layers have been synthesized and structurally characterized. By anion–π interactions between the anions and the π-acidic naphthalenediimide moieties, the materials emit strong red room-temperature phosphorescence and exhibit reversible photochromism.
