A mercury coordination polymer [Hg3(TizT)2I6]n (Mr = 1921.72, TizT = 2,4,6- tri(imidazole-1-yl)-1,3,5-triazine) containing a 40-membered macrocycle which was constructed by four TizT ligands and four mercury(II) iodide molecules had been synthesized by the reaction of HgI2 with TizT. The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR spectra and X-ray crystallography. The crystal of the complex belongs to the monoclinic system and C2/c space group with a = 35.840(5), b = 8.169(5), c = 14.980(5) , β = 104.466(5)°, Z = 4, V = 4247(3) 3, Dc = 3.006 g·cm-3, μ = 15.223 mm-1, F(000) = 3384, Rint = 0.0504, wR = 0.0833 and constructs a chair-like conformation of cyclohexane one by one, which forms a 1-D polymer through the fashion of fused ring aromatic hydrocarbon. The hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions shape the 2-D network structure. The two compounds excited weak fluorescence.
Three bis-vinylpyridine compounds (4,4′-bis(2-vinylpyridine)biphenyl L1,4,4′-bis(3-vinylpyridine) biphenyl L2,and 4,4′-bis (4-vinylpyridine)biphenyl L3) were synthesized by one-step solid-state reactions at room temperature,giving nearly quantitative yields. The compounds obtained were fully characterized by IR,MS and NMR spectroscopies. The structures of L2 and L3 were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. No noticeable solvatochromism was observed in either one-photon absorption or one-photon excited fluorescence spectra. All of the compounds have high fluorescence quantum yields and long fluorescence lifetime. The linear and nonlinear optical properties of the compounds were investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Interestingly,the position of the nitrogen atom from pyridine influences their two-photon absorption across-sections.
Two novel quadrupolar organic compounds, 3-(4-((E)-2-(9-butyl-9H-carbazol-6-yl) vinyl)styryl)-9-propyl-9H-carbazole (BCSPC) and 3-(3-(3-((1E)-2-(4-((E)-2-(3-(3,5-bis(9-butyl-9H-carbazol-6-yl)phenyl)-9-butyl-9H-carbazol-6-yl)vinyl)phenyl) vinyl)-9-butyl-9H-carbazol-6-yl)-5-(9-butyl-9H-carbazol-6-yl)phenyl)-9-butyl-9H-carbazole (BCPBC), with different conjugated arms, have been designed and synthesized. Their one-and two-photon absorption (TPA) and excited fluorescence properties have been experimentally investigated. The two-photon absorption cross-sections of two compounds were estimated by two-photon excited fluorescence technique using 200 fs, 76 MHz, Ti:sapphire laser, which are 22 and 154 GM for BCSPC and BCPBC, respectively. The optimal excitation wavelengths are 780 nm for both BCSPC and BCPBC. A data recording experiment proved the potential application of the materials.

A novel terpyridine-based complex CdL'S2 (L'= oxide of L; L = 10-hexyl-3-(2,6-di(pyridine-2-yl)pyridine-4-yl)-10H-phenothiazine) has been solvothermally synthesized and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, 1 H NMR and X-ray crystallography. The sulfur of phenothiazine moiety was oxidized when the crystal is formed. The complex C36H37CdN5O2S3 crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1 with a = 9.4452(9), b = 13.0181(14), c = 14.6721(18), α = 73.872(1), β = 81.531(1), γ = 87.547(2)°, V = 1714.2(3)3 , Mr = 780.29, Dc = 1.512 g·cm-3 , μ = 0.861 mm-1 , F(000) = 800, Z = 2, the final R = 0.0456 and wR = 0.1059 for Ⅰ > 2σ(Ⅰ). The Cd(Ⅱ) is coordinated by two terminal sulfur ions and three pyridyl nitrogen atoms in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Universal hydrogen bonds between the neighboring molecules have generated a supramolecular arrangement which contributes to the stability of the title complex. Fluorescence property and thermogravimetry of the complex have also been investigated and discussed.
