Abstract

We present gas-phase dispersed photoluminescence spectra of europium-(III) 9-hydroxyphenalen-1-one (HPLN) complexes forming adducts with alkali metal ions ([Eu(PLN)(3)M](+) with M = Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs) confined in a quadrupole ion trap for study. The mass selected alkali metal cation adducts display a split hypersensitive D-5(0) -> F-7(2) Eu3+ emission band. One of the two emission components shows a linear dependence on the radius of the alkali metal cation whereas the other component displays a quadratic dependence thereon. In addition, the relative intensities of both components invert in the same order. The experimental results are interpreted with the support of density functional calculations and Judd-Ofelt theory, yielding also structural information on the isolated [Eu(PLN)(3)M](+) chromophores.
