Abstract:
Chapter 1- One triazine-based ether-linked luminescent porous covalent framework
(PCF) has been synthesized. This compound was characterized with infra-red (IR)
spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron
microscope (FE-SEM) and low-temperature gas adsorption measurements. Further,
luminescence-based sensing of the toxic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has been
carried out with the aforementioned compound.
Chapter 2- Two spin crossover complexes {Fe-bpp(COOH), Fe(III)-Sal2tren} and one
luminescent Coordination complex {Ru-bpp(COOH)} has been synthesized. These
compounds were characterized by Infra-red spectroscopy, Powder-XRD, 1H-NMR
spectroscopy. These complexes are encapsulated in a highly stable MOF (Zn-MFU 4l)
with a high surface area. Further, these complex-loaded compounds are characterized
by Infra-red spectroscopy, Solid-state UV-Visible spectroscopy, FE-SEM, Powder-XRD
and Low-temperature gas adsorption studies. Magnetic measurement of the spin
crossover complexes and the complex loaded compound has been carried out.
