Single Crystal X-ray Diffraction Studies.

Single crystal X-ray structural studies of 2d and 2e were performed on a CCD Agilent

Technologies (Oxford Diffraction) SUPER NOVA diffractometer. Data were collected at 150(2)

K using graphite-monochromated CuK\α radiation (λα = 1.5418 Å). The strategy for the Data

collection was evaluated by using the CrysAlisPro CCD software. The data were collected by the

standard 'phi-omega scan techniques, and were scaled and reduced using CrysAlisPro RED

software. The structures were solved by direct methods using SHELXS-97, and refined by full

matrix least-squares with SHELXL-97, refining on F2.1. The positions of all the atoms were

obtained by direct methods. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. The remaining

hydrogen atoms were placed in geometrically constrained positions, and refined with isotropic

temperature factors, generally 1.2Ueq of their parent atoms. The crystal structure, and dat

refinement parameters are summarized in Table 1. The CCDC numbers 967406, and 967407

contain the supplementary crystallographic data for 2d and 3e respectively. These data can be

obtained free of charge via www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/conts/retrieving.html (or from the Cambridge

Crystallographic Data Centre, 12 union Road, Cambridge CB21 EZ, UK; Fax: (+44) 1223-336-

ɸF= ɸst × Su/Sst × Ast / Au × n2Du/n2

Dst ……………….. (Eq. 1)

Where ɸF is the emission quantum yield of the sample, ɸst is the emission quantum yield

of the standard, Ast and Au represent the absorbance of the standard and sample at the

excitation wavelength, respectively, while Sst and Su are the integrated emission band

areas of the standard and sample, respectively, and nDst and nDu the solvent refractive index

of the standard and sample, u and st refer to the unknown and standard, respectively.
