In recent years,luminescent metal complexes have attracted considerable attention,because of their promising potential in materials science,optical recording devices,biological systems and organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)［1-3］.In particular,much more attention has been paid to Cu（Ⅰ）complexes,since copper is the relatively abundant and inexpensive non-noble metal［4-6］. In this respect,Cu（Ⅰ） complexes have been investigated.The structural diversity of copper（Ⅰ） complexes ranges from mononuclear to polynuclear molecules,which makes Cu（Ⅰ）complexes show desired properties, such as efficient luminescence［7-9］.

Until now,a number of mixed-ligand Cu（Ⅰ）diimine diphosphine complexes such as ［Cu(N^N)(P^P)］+system (P^P=various diphosphine)ligands)have been reported and their fluorescence properties have been extensively investigated in various solvents and different temperatures［10-11］.For a tetrahedral ［Cu(N^N)(P^P)］+system,the emission often features metal-toligand transfer(MLCT)character,which is associated with the peripheral ligand.So it is believed that structural modification of generally used ligands and the exploitation of the novel ligands are two efficient ways to gain fresh emissive heteroleptic Cu（Ⅰ）complexes.On this basis, N,N-bis((diphenylphosphino)methyl)-pyridinamine (bdppmapy)was selected since its comp-lexes not only have rich structural chemistry but also have potential applications in fluorescent materials.It is well-known that copper（Ⅰ）salts are classified as a kind of soft acid.According to the hard-soft-acid-base (HSAB)theory,as P-donor ligand,the N,N-bis((diphenylphosphino)methyl)-pyridinamine(bdppmapy)we used in this contribution can easily coordinate with copper（Ⅰ）salts to help improve crystal quality.The diimine ligand plays a significant role in determining the luminescence properties of Cu（Ⅰ） complexes［12-13］,so 2,2′-bipyridine(2,2′-bipy)was chosen to synthesize complexes.

In our previous studies,we have reported some complexes with the novel structures and good fluorescence properties by the reaction of similar ligands and closed-shell d10metal［14-18］.In this paper,two novel copper（Ⅰ） complexes,namely ［Cu(bdppmapy)(2,2′-bipy)］BF4(1)and ［Cu(bdppmapy)(2,2′-bipy)］I(2),have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction,elemental analysis,1H NMR,31P NMR spectroscopy,fluorescence spectra and THz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS).The luminescent properties of these complexes are discussed.

2 Results and discussion

2.1 Syntheses of the complexes

The ligand bdppmapy was prepared accordin g to the method in literatures［19-20］.It′s known to all that the structures of complexes are affected by many factors such as ligands and solvents.In the preparation of title complexes,the ligands 2,2′-bipy and bdppmapy influence the coordination modes of the copper ion.Functional Cu（Ⅰ）complex 1 has been synthesized by one-pot reaction using copper（Ⅰ） salts,2,2′-bipy and bdppmapy ligands in CH3OH and CH2Cl2(1∶1,V/V).Complex 2 was prepared in a similar manner as described for 1,except for using CuI(Scheme 2).Both complexes 1 and 2 are mononuclear structures and are stable in air that can be stored for long term.In the respect of our report,the effect of anions on the structures of the complexes 1 and 2 is minimal.

2.2 Description of crystal structures

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system with space group P1.The asymmetric unit(Fig.1)is comprised of one Cu（Ⅰ） ion,one 2,2′-bipy ligand and one bdppmapy ligand,forming a simple mononuclear heteroleptic complex.The metal ion,which adopts four-coordinated mode,is bonded to two N atoms from 2,2′-bipy ligand and two P atoms from bdppmapy ligand to establish a distorted tetrahedral geometry around the metal.The geometry around copper（Ⅰ）center is distorted tetrahedral configuration,which is confirmed by the angles in a range of 80.14(1)°～127.62(7)°.The Cu-N bond lengths(0.206(2)nm)and Cu-P bond lengths(0.225(7)nm)are normal for the four-coordinated Cu（Ⅰ）complexes.Compared to the similar Cu-2,2′-bipy complex,the Cu-N(0.206(2)nm)distance in complex 1 is similar to that in ［Cu2(en)(2,2′-bipy)］2+［25］.

Fig.1 Molecular structure of complex 1

Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system with space group P21.Just like complex 1,Cu（Ⅰ）is four-coordinated surrounded by two P atoms from bdppmapy ligand and two N atoms from 2,2′-bipy ligand.The 2,2′-bipy acts as a typical chelate ligand to join Cu（Ⅰ）,just as in the ［Cu2(μ-Ph2Pbipy)2(2,2′-bipy)］(PF6)2［26］.Compared with complex 1,there are almost no obvious differences for complex 2 in bond distances(Cu-P：0.222(1),Cu-N：0.205(4)nm)and bond angle(range from 81.02(2)°to 124.93(1)°).The only divergence between the above two complexes is the anions which have almost no influence on the structure.

2.3 1H NMR and 31P NMR spectroscopy

The1H NMR spectra of complexes 1 and 2 were measured at room temperature in DMSO-d6.The1H NMR spectrum of complex 1 exhibits signals(multiple peaks)between 7.06 and 7.80 (δ),which can be assigned toprotonsfromthe aromatic ringsof bdppmapy ligand(δ：7.28,8H,t,J=7.5 Hz;7.37,12H,dt,J1=13.8 Hz,J2=7.2 Hz).In complex 1,the signals in two ranges of 6.10～7.80 and 7.50～8.70 are attributed to protons from heteroaromatic rings of bdppmapy ligand(δ：6.13,1H,d,J=8.4 Hz;6.52,1H,dd,J1=6.9 Hz,J2=4.8 Hz;7.07,1H,m,J1=1.73 Hz,J2=1.73 Hz,J3=3.57 Hz;7.79,1H,dd,J1=4.8 Hz,J2=1.2 Hz)and 2,2′-bipy ligand(δ：7.51,2H,dd,J1=7.2 Hz,J2=5.7 Hz;8.16,4H,dd,J1=13.8 Hz,J2=6.3 Hz;8.69,2H,d,J=8.4 Hz),respectively.As for complex 2,the signals in two ranges of 6.10～7.80 and 7.51～8.68 belong to heterocyclic hydrogen from bdppmapy (δ：6.11,1H,d,J=8.4 Hz;6.50,1H,dd,J1=6.9 Hz,J2=4.8 Hz;7.05,1H,m,J1=1.73 Hz,J2=1.73 Hz,J3=3.57 Hz;7.76,1H,dd,J1=19.8 Hz,J2=11.4 Hz)and 2,2′-bipy(δ：7.51,2H,dd,J1=7.2 Hz,J2=5.7 Hz;8.16,4H,dd,J1=13.8 Hz,J2=6.3 Hz;8.68,2H,d,J=8.4 Hz),respectively.The31P NMR spectra of complexes 1 and 2 exhibit single signals at δ-14.5 can be ascribed to phosphorus of the diphosphine ligands.

2.4 Fluorescence spectra

The solid-state excitation and emission spectra of complexes 1 and 2,bdppmapy and 2,2′-bipy ligands were measured at room temperature.When being excited at 380 nm,the bdppmapy ligand displayed a fluorescence emission peak at 433 nm,and the emission peak of the 2,2′-bipy ligand was found at 545 nm with excitation at 272 nm.Compared with bdppmapy ligand,the emission maxima of complexes 1 and 2 were largely shifted to longer wavelength,which is correlated with a visible color change in complexes 1 and 2.It was found that the emission peak was centered at 556 nm withλEx=371 nm for complex 1,and it was centered at 540 nm withλEx=370 nm for complex 2 (Fig.2).The emission maxima of complex 1 was 16 nm longer than that of complex 2 indicating that different anions have effect on the fluorescence spectra.The luminescent spectra show that the emission mechanism is metal-to-ligand charge transfer(MLCT).

2.5 Terahertz time domain spectroscopy(THz-TDS)

The room temperature terahertz time domain spectroscopy(THz-TDS)of ［Cu(CH3CN)4］BF4,CuI,bdppmapy,2,2′-bipy and complexes 1 and 2 were measured in a range of 0.2～2.8 THz.All the above compounds had characteristic resonance peaks,which may be explained by the fact that in polar molecules the dipoles rotate and vibrate,resulting in strong absorption and chromatic dispersion.The peaks found for them were as follows：［Cu(CH3CN)4］BF40.29,1.47,1.70,1.82,2.00,2.10,2.23,2.35,2.41,2.52,2.75 THz;CuI 0.27,0.38,0.86,1.44,1.66,2.01,2.3,2.4,2.51,2.64 THz;bdppmapy 0.94,1.13,1.23,1.41,1.70,1.87,2.05,2.17,2.58,2.40,2.64 THz(Fig.3);2,2′-bipy 0.29,0.41,0.53,1.29,1.99,2.05,2.34,2.46,2.57,2.69 THz (Fig.4);complex 1 0.29,1.47,1.68,1.87,2.05,2.23,2.40,2.64,2.78 THz(Fig.5);complex 2 0.36,0.82,1.18,1.35,1.52,1.81,2.28,2.57,2.70 THz(Fig.6).By comparing the THz absorption spectra of the products with those of the reactants,we can see that most peaks of the ligands and copper（Ⅰ）ions disappeared or moved in the complexes.New peaks appear in the new complexes indicating that the THz absorption spectra are associated with the coordination of copper（Ⅰ）ions and the ligands.There are big differences in THz absorption spectra of complexes 1 and 2 because of the effect of anions.Although the correspondence between the crystal structures and observed spectra does not allow a definitive characterization,it is possible to make tentative assignments of many of the observed features in the terahertz region for the samples.The results are a supplement to the THz spectroscopic properties of Cu（Ⅰ）complexes containing nitrogen and phosphorous ligand.

3 Conclusions

Twonovel Cu（Ⅰ） complexes,namely［Cu(bdppmapy)(2,2′-bipy)］BF4(1)and ［Cu(bdppmapy)(2,2′-bipy)］I(2),have been synthesized and characterized by singlecrystal X-ray diffraction,elemental analysis,1H NMR and31P NMR spectroscopy,fluorescence spectra and THz time domain spectroscopy(THz-TDS).Complexes 1 and 2 are mononuclear complexes,whose emission peaks are derived from metal-to-ligand charge transfer(MLCT).All the complexes show great stability,which can be used in optical materials and luminescence research.The application of THz time domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS)provides useful information for researching the structure and luminescence of compounds.
