A series of bis[octakis(alkylthio)phthalocyaninato]rare-earth-metal(III)
discotic compounds, [(CnS)8Pc]2M (M = Eu(III), Tb(III), Lu(III); n = 8,
10, 12, 14, 16, 18), has been synthesized. The mesomorphic and supramolecular
structures have been investigated by using differential scanning calorimetry,
polarization microscopy and temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction
techniques. From the X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic results, it was
revealed that in each of the rare-earth compound classes, [(CnS)8Pc]2Eu (n = 10, 12), [(CnS)8Pc]2Tb (n = 10,
12, 14) and [(CnS)8Pc]2Lu (n = 10,
12), derivatives were found which displayed a novel unique pseudo-hexagonal
mesophase.The temperature dependence of the one-dimensional intracolumnar
charge carrier mobilities, Σμ1D, has been measured
for [(C12S)8Pc]2Lu and [(C18S)8Pc]2Lu
using the PR-TRMC (pulse-radiolysis time-resolved microwave
conductivity) technique. The mobility values in both the K and D phases
are more than an order of magnitude larger than found previously for [(C12O)8Pc]2Lu
and are close to the maximum values ever found for discotic materials. The
lack of a decrease in Σμ1D at the mesophase to
isotropic liquid transition suggests that these compounds may represent the
first liquid phase organic semiconducting materials.
一系列双[八烷基硫代邻苯二甲酰亚胺]稀土金属(III)盘状化合物[(CnS)8Pc]2M(M = Eu(III)、Tb(III)、Lu(III);n = 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18)已被合成。通过差示扫描量热法、偏振显微镜和温度依赖的X射线衍射技术对各自的介晶态和超分子结构进行了研究。从X射线衍射和光谱结果显示,在每一类稀土化合物中,都发现了[(CnS)8Pc]2Eu(n = 10, 12)、[(CnS)8Pc]2Tb(n = 10, 12, 14)和[(CnS)8Pc]2Lu(n = 10, 12)衍生物,这些衍生物展现出了新颖的独特伪六角介相。通过脉冲辐解时分辨微波电导率(PR-TRMC)技术,测量了[(C12S)8Pc]2Lu和[(C18S)8Pc]2Lu的一维内列电荷载流子迁移率Σμ1D的温度依赖性。在K相和D相中的迁移率值均比以前在[(C12O)8Pc]2Lu中发现的高出一个数量级,并且接近于盘状材料所发现的最大值。在介相到各向同性液体过渡过程中Σμ1D没有降低,这表明这些化合物可能代表了首个液相有机半导体材料。
