Abstract

The crystal structure and luminescent properties of boron difluoride 1-naphthyl-butandionate-1,3 (1) (C10H7COCHCOCH3BF2) are determined and analyzed. The molecules of compound 1 are packed in the crystal into infinite stacks due to π-stacking interactions. A feature of the structure of 1 is a fragment of four neighboring molecules, the π-systems of which participate in π…π interactions of different types: naphthyl…naphthyl (head-to-head) and naphthyl…chelate (head-to-tail). The data of time resolved luminescent spectroscopy and quantum chemical computations show that in crystals and concentrated solutions of 1, one excimer structure occurs corresponding to the head-to-tail overlap.
