RESUMEN
A new luminescent hybrid material based on silica aerogel and a boron-containing coordination compound with 8-hydroxyquinoline was created, and its physicochemical and spectral-luminescent characteristics were studied. A simple scheme for the synthesis of a hybrid luminescent material was developed. Simultaneously with the synthesis of the aerogel, the formation of a boron-containing phosphor was carried out using an isopropanol solution of boric acid and 8-hydroxyquinoline. Using in situ luminescent measurements, the mechanisms of the formation of boron-based luminescent complexes in isopropanol and tetrahydrofuran media were established. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic silica aerogels were tested as matrices for the hybrid material. The formation of a thin layer of a boron-containing coordination luminescent compound on the highly developed surface of the SiO2 aerogel made it possible to strongly stabilize the aerogel structure and noticeably increase the thermal stability of the synthesized hybrid material.
RESUMEN
A simple method of synthesis of high pure tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (Alq3) from commercial available 5N Al2O3 and 8-hydroxyquinolinol has been developed. One-step exchange chemical reaction has been conducted under controlled 8-hydrixyquinoline vapor at a temperature of 190-240 °C with water removal by phosphorus anhydride. According to analysis of inductively coupled plasma mass-spectrometry, the chemical purity of synthesized Alq3 was 99.998 wt%. Photoluminescence of the synthesized Alq3 has been measured and slightly differed from those of Alq3 obtained by traditional organic synthesis.
