Role of Hydrogen Bonding in Crystal Structure and Luminescence Properties of Melem Hydrates.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, carbon nitride (CN) compounds, such as g-C₃N₄ and melem, have attracted attention as new visible light-driven photocatalysts with a variety of functions, including water splitting, organic decomposition, and dark photocatalysis. The building unit of these materials is the heptazine ring, and molecules with this structure have attracted considerable attention as luminescent materials. Melem is an organic molecule with amino groups at the three termini of its heptazine ring. Melem exhibits near-UV (NUV) emission with high quantum yield via thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF). Materials exhibiting TADF can achieve highly efficient luminescence without the use of heavy metals, generating interest in their potential as luminescent materials for
