This work reports on the design, synthesis and characterization of novel anilate-based functional molecular materials showing luminescent, magnetic and/or conducting properties. The family of anilate ligands comprises several derivatives obtained by introducing various substituents (H, F, Cl, Br, I, CN, etc.) at the 3 and 6 positions of the common 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone framework. Their electronic/structural features, coordination modes, ability to mediate magnetic exchange interactions between coordinated d and/or f-metal centers, and to work as efficient antenna ligands towards NIR lanthanide ions, make them suitable candidates for the preparation of the materials reported. In Chapter 1, the synthesis of a multifunctional mixed-valence FeIIFeIII anilate-based coordination polymer, obtained by using the chlorocyanilate ligand (ClCNAn2-), formulated as [TAG][FeIIFeIII(ClCNAn)3]•(solvate) (TAG = tris(amino)-guanidinium) is reported. This compound is characterized by single crystal X-Ray, at 150K and 10K, magnetic, mössbauer and conductivity measurements. Moreover, correlation of conductivity difference between anilate and pioneer oxalate based FeIIFeIII 2D coordination polymers are explained using theoretical calculations (small-polaron hopping model).

The synthesis, structural characterization, photophysical studies, time-resolved photoluminescence studies performed on both the bulk and nanosheets, effects induced by the exfoliation process on the photo-physical properties of the nanosheets are discussed.

These systems are formulated as [Ln4(ClCNAn)5(DOBDC)1(DMSO)10]•(DMSO)2 (LnIII - Yb (1), Er (2)) [Ln2(ClCNAn)2(F4-BDC)(DMSO)6] (LnIII – Yb (3), Er (4)).

This work reports on the design, synthesis and characterization of novel anilate-based functional molecular materials showing luminescent, magnetic and/or conducting properties. The family of anilate ligands comprises several derivatives obtained by introducing various substituents (H, F, Cl, Br, I, CN, etc.) at the 3 and 6 positions of the common 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone framework.
