Abstract: The present study investigated and compared the spectroscopic and structural morphology properties of bathophenanthroline (Bath) complexed with three organic acceptors (PA, DNBA and CLA) using a binary mixed solvent in both solution and solid-state. The products were fully characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic techniques, such as UV-visible, IR, H-1 NMR, and C-13 NMR spectroscopies; XRD; SEM; TEM; and CHN elemental analysis. This work highlights that the binary solvent made of MeOH/CH2Cl2 at the molar ratio of 1:1 is an efficient media to form CT products with a highly organized and uniform morphology.
