The invention discloses a near-
infrared luminous gold-
copper doped nano-cluster material as well as a synthesis method and application thereof, and belongs to the crossing field of coordination
chemistry and nano materials.
Thioether gold and
copper hexafluorophosphate tetraacetonitrile serve as raw materials, binaphthyl dithiophosphate (R / S-PS) is used for coordination protection, a
reducing agent diphenyl
silane (Ph2SiH2) is added, the gold-
copper-doped nano-cluster material with the near-
infrared light emitting function is obtained through a one-pot reduction method, the molecular formula of an
enantiomer cluster is Au13Cu4 (C20H12O2PS2) 12 (C7H17NCl) 3, the abbreviation is R / S-Au13Cu4, the
enantiomer cluster belongs to an orthorhombic
system, and the molecular formula of the
enantiomer cluster is shown in the description. And the
space group is a chiral
space group C222. The material shows a remarkable aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristic in a
dichloromethane /
cyclohexane system. The compound shows strong near-
infrared emission at 725 nm in an aggregation state, the
photoluminescence quantum yield is as high as 35%, and the compound has a remarkable two-
photon excitation
luminescence characteristic. The excellent optical properties lay a foundation for realizing high-quality
cell imaging application under 740 nm exciting light.
