Crystallisation-Induced Emission Enhancement in Zn(II) Schiff Base Complexes with a Tuneable Emission Colour

Four Zn(II) Schiff base complexes that exhibit crystallisation-induced emission enhancement (CIEE) are presented. There is an intermolecular dimerisation through the hydrogen bonding of the mixed phenol/phenolate donors. The choice of ligand also determines the emission wavelength. The complexes hav...
