Abstract

Three complexes [Zn2(IPA)2(phen)4](HIPA)2(NO3)2·H2O (1), {[Zn(IPA)2(bipy)]·3H2O}n (2), and {[Mn(IPA)2(bipy)(H2O)]·2H2O}n (3) (HIPA = indole-3-propionic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, bipy = 4,4′-bipyridine) were synthesized and characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. Complex 1 displays a zero-dimensional structure, whilst 2 and 3 show one-dimensional chains, which are linked into supramolecular networks through hydrogen bonding interactions and/or π···π stacking interactions. The luminescence properties of complexes 1 and 2 were investigated.
