A cyclen backbone was utilized to study the effect of backbone rigidity on Eu(iii) luminescence sensitization using a 1,2-HOPO derivative and 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonate (TTA) as chromophores. The restriction of molecular movement of <b>Eu-Cy-HOPO</b> brought about by the increased rigidity provided a tightly packed coordination environment for the octadentate Eu(iii) center which resulted in the highest overall quantum yield (30.2%) and sensitization efficiency (64.6%) among 1,2-HOPO sensitized ...[more]
