Synthesis and fluorescence property of terbium complex with novel schiff-base macromolecular ligand

Novel schiff-base macromolecular ligand was synthesized by copolymerizing schiff-base monomer, methyl methacrylate and ethyl acrylate. New polymeric materials based on terbium complex with this macromolecular ligand were prepared. The fluorescence properties of the terbium-complex polymer were investigated experimentally. The new polymeric materials developed herein exhibit the characteristic fluorescence properties of the terbium(III) ion, making them applicable in a wide range of new technologies.
