Abstract
A new two-dimensional lead(II) coordination polymer,
\Pb((mu-Q)I(2)\(n), was prepared by reacting lead(II) iodide with
8-hydroxyquinoline (HQ) in a fast and facile process. The complex was
fully characterized based on its H-1 NMR, IR and UV spectra, single
crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and elemental analysis. The crystal
structure showed that the compound is a two-dimensional coordination
polymer consisting of dimeric units with a building block of
Pb-2(mu-Q)(2)I-2. The lead atoms are four-coordinated, and the HQ
ligand acted as a bidentate chelate, along with a bridging phenoxy
oxygen and iodine atoms. Application of the prepared complex in the
fabrication of OLEDs in two different concentrations has been
demonstrated. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and the
photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) properties of the
complex have been investigated. The EL of the compound has exhibited a
green emission at 555 and 532 nm for ratios of, 100:20 and 100:35
(PVK/Pb((mu-Q)I(2)), respectively. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights
