The electronic absorption, excitation and sensitized visible light emission studies of three praseodymium (III) complexes: [Pr(fod)(3)(bpy)], [Pr(fod)(3)(phen)] and [Pr(fod)(3)(bpm)](n) (fod = anion of 6,6,7,7,8,8,8- heptafluoro-2,2-dimethyl-3,5-octanedione; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, bpm = 2,2'-bipyrimidine) in a series of non-aqueous solvents is presented. The f-f absorption transitions of Pr(III) are environment sensitive which is reflected by the change in the intensity (oscillator strength) and band shape (stark splitting) upon change in the solvent and/or the ligands. The sensitization of intense Pr(III) emission, in the visible region, of the complexes in solution upon excitation into the ligand centered pi ->pi* absorption band is remarkable. The planar phen has pronounced impact and increases considerably the emission intensity of Pr(III) luminescence than the flexible bpy while bpm has been found least effective in promoting the emission intensity. The intensity of the f-f absorption and sensitized emission are correlated with the nature of the solvents. The donor solvent pyridine enhances the emission intensity of the [Pr(fod)(3)(phen)] drastically and of [Pr(fod)(3)(bpy)] marginally while the luminescent intensity of [Pr(fod)(3)(bpm)](n) is decreased. The combined photophysical studies demonstrate that entry of the solvent molecule(s) to inner coordination sphere (complex-solvent interaction) is governed by the structure and basicity of the ancillary heterocyclic ligand attached to the Pr(III) complex. The strong donor DMSO transforms the three complexes into a similar species, [Ln(fod)(3)(DMSO)(2)], which results in similar electronic absorption and emission properties of the complexes in this solvent. The results demonstrate that highly luminescent praseodymium chelates can be designed with ligands containing suitable energy levels and their emission properties can be further modulated through suitable ancillary ligands and donor solvents, thus opening perspectives for applications in electroluminescent devices and luminescent probes.
