Dinuclear zinc(II) complexes [Zn2L2X2]·nSolv (X = Cl, nSolv = 1.5MeOH; X = Br, I, nSolv = CH2Cl2·0.5MeOH) and ionic solids [H2L]X·H2O (X = Cl, Br) on the base of 2-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)pyrimidine (HL) were synthesized. In these compounds, excited state intramolecular proton transfer in the ligand core is switched off as a result of complexation and protonation. In the structure of zinc(II) complexes, mononuclear {ZnLX} units are combined into non-centrosymmetric dinuclear [Zn2L2X2] molecules due to the bridging function of the deprotonated hydroxyphenyl group. The crystal structures of [H2L]X·H2O are stabilized by the formation of supramolecular clusters with N–H⋅⋅⋅O and O–H⋅⋅⋅Cl hydrogen bonds between [H2L]+ cations, H2O molecules and X− anions. Whereas the ionic compounds with the protonated ligand, [H2L]X·H2O, exhibit only weak fluorescence in the blue region, the zinc(II) complexes, [Zn2L2X2]·nSolv, demonstrate bright fluorescence in the green region whose efficiency increases with a decrease in the size of the halogen atom (PLQY 7 %, 10 % and 21 % for X = I, Br and Cl, respectively), reflecting reduced non-radiative decay through triplet-state quenching as the heavy atom effect weakens.
