Two low-dimensional metal halides: ionothermal synthesis, photoluminescence, and nonlinear optical properties was written by Deng, Yuandan;Dong, Xuehua;Yang, Meng;Zeng, Hongmei;Zou, Guohong;Lin, Zhien. And the article was included in Dalton Transactions in 2019.Reference of 92507-97-6 This article mentions the following:
Two new organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides, formulated as (C7H13N2)2MnCl4 (1) and (C6H11N2)PbBr3 (2), were prepared by a two-component ionothermal approach using multifunctional ionic liquids as solvents, charge-balancing agents, and halide sources. Compound 1 has an ionic zero-dimensional structure showing bright green luminescence with a high quantum yield of up to 70.78%. Compound 2 has a chain-like structure with a large second harmonic generation efficiency which is approx. 8脳 that of KH2PO4. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 1-ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride (cas: 92507-97-6Reference of 92507-97-6).
1-ethyl-2,3-dimethylimidazolium chloride (cas: 92507-97-6) belongs to imidazole derivatives. Many natural products, especially alkaloids, contain the imidazole ring. These imidazoles share the 1,3-C3N2 ring but feature varied substituents. Imidazole derivatives have antibacterial, antifungal and anticancer functionality. It interacts with DNA and also binds to protein and stops cell division.Reference of 92507-97-6
