Coordination complexes with aggregation-induced-emission (AIE) behavior has drawn much attention because of their promising applications. Conventionally, the AIE-active metal-organic complexes are prepared from an AIE-active organic ligand, and the construction of such coordination complexes from aggregation-caused-quenching (ACQ) ligands is still challenging. Herein, we have synthesized two new cyclic trinuclear complexes (CTCs), namely, 1 and 2, from copper(I) and silver(I) and a ACQ ligand [4-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)benzaldehyde, HL]. (1) exhibited AIE behavior, and the emission intensity is enhanced ~20 times when it aggregates, which can be attributed to its tight packing and multiple intermolecular hydrogen bonds that restrained the intramolecular rotation, as confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. On the other hand, (2) displayed ACQ effects, and the emission intensity is decreased ~5 times when it aggregates. This ACQ behavior of 2 is related to its loose packing and free rotation of the ligand in crystals, resulting in nonradiative decay and fluorescence quenching. Interestingly, the CTCs 1 and 2 both exhibited a good affinity to gold(III) ions, allowing selective detection and sensing of gold ions. More importantly, the 2 shows a good limit of detection (3.28 μmol/L) and an ultrafast responsive time (~2 s). Our studies pave a new route to designing novel AIE-active coordination complexes and further exploring the functionality of CTCs.
