The study concentrates on the syntheses of modified 2-hydroxynicotinic acid by 3-(triethoxysilyl)-propyl isocyanate (TESPIC) and the preparation of their corresponding organic-inorganic molecular-based hybrid material with the two components equipped with covalent bonds. The bridging unit is a derivative of 2-hydroxynicotinic acid which is utilized to coordinate to Tb3+, Eu3+ or Zn2+ and further occurred hydrolysis and polycondensation processes by functional triethoxysilyl groups. Ultraviolet absorption, phosphorescence spectra, and luminescence spectra were applied to characterize the photophysical properties of the obtained hybrid material and the above spectroscopic data present that the triplet energy of modified 2-hydroxynicotinic acid efficiently initiates the antenna effect and matches with the emissive energy level of metal ions. As a result, the intramolecular energy transfer process completed within these molecular-based hybrids and strong green or red emissions of Ln(3+) have been obtained. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.
