Build-up enhancement of photoluminescence from phenylazomethine bismuth dendrimer using Bi(OTf) 3

Metal assembly to a dendrimer can provide various functionalities based on the branched structure. Here, we researched assembly phenomena of bismuth salts in the phenylazomethine dendrimer and achieved enhancement of emission intensity per metal unit by using Bi(OTf) 3 . This enhancement suggested increasing of Bi–N coordination bonds derived from the bismuth units in the dendrimer.
