The complex of Tb(TPTZ)Cl₃·3H₂O was synthesized by adding the ethyl alcohol solution of TbCl₃ (1 mmol) to the solution of 2,4,6-tris-(2-pyridyl)-s-triazine(TPTZ,1 mmol) with constant stirring. The solution which had been filtered was kept at the room temperature for 4 weeks, and then a kind of transparent crystal was formed. Besides, nine kinds of solid complexes in the different molar proportion of terbium to gadolinium had been synthesized by adopting the similar method mentioned above. It was inferred from the elemental analysis and rare earth complexometry that the composition of these complexes is (Tb_xGd_y)(TPTZ)Cl₃·3H₂O (x : y = 0.9 : 0.1, 0.8 : 0.2, 0.7 : 0.3, 0.6 : 0.4, 0.5 : 0.5, 0.4 : 0.6, 0.3 : 0.7, 0.2 : 0.8, 0.1 : 0.9). The absorption spectra and photoluminescence of the complexes were determined in dimethylsulfoxide (DMF), which showed that the excitation of the complexes is mostly ligand based. The triplet state energy level of TPTZ was measured, indicating that the lowest excitation state energy level of Tb(III) and the triplet state energy level of TPTZ match well each other. The fluorescent data indicated that the fluorescent emission intensity of Tb³⁺ ions would be enhanced in the complexes after terbium was doped with Gd³⁺ ion. When x : y was 0.5 : 0.5, the fluorescent emission intensity was the largest. The result obtained by testing the X-ray diffraction of the monocrystal revealed that the molecular formula of the mono-crystal complex is [Tb(TPTZ)(H₂O)₆]Cl₃·3H₂O. The number of metal ion coordinates is nine, and the tridentate TPTZ and six water molecules are bonded with terbium respectively. Besides, it also revealed that the monocrystal belongs to the monoclinic system, and space group Cc with the following unit cell parameters is a = 1.4785 (3) nm, b = 1.0547 (2) nm, c = 1.7385 (4) nm, β = 94.42 (3)°, V = 2.7028 (9) nm³ and Z = 4.
