Novel near-infrared (NIR) luminescent copolymerized hybrid materials were prepared by covalently grafting and physically doping Ln complexes (Ln = Er, Sm, Yb, and Nd) into a copolymer matrix built from nanobuilding blocks. The structures of the obtained hybrid materials were investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), gel permeation chromatograph...

2-Hydroxy-N-{2-[2-hydroxyethyl)amino]ethyl}benzamide (L¹H₃) and 2-hydroxy-N-{2-[2-hydroxybutyl)amino]ethyl}benzamide (L²H₃) ligands coordinate to copper ions to give anionic metalloligands, L¹Cu⁻ and L²Cu⁻, after deprotonation of their amide, alcohol and phenol functions. In presence of ancillary ligands as diketones, these metalloligands react with lanthanide salts to yield tetranuclear [Cu-Ln...

Lanthanide complexes with two push-pull diketone derivatives as sensitizers have been developed as synthons for near-infrared emitting materials. The ligand substituents consist of a carbazole moiety with hole-transport properties and an aromatic or heteroaromatic unit. According to quantitative NMR analysis and complementary HPLC experiments, the diketones are predominantly in their enolic for...

The unsymmetrical tridentate benzimidazole-pyridine-carboxamide units in ligands L1-L4 react with trivalent lanthanides, Ln(III), to give the nine-co-ordinate triple-helical complexes [Ln(Li)3]3+ (i = 1-4) existing as mixtures of C3-symmetrical facial and C1-symmetrical meridional isomers. Although the beta13 formation constants are 3-4 orders of magnitude smaller for these complexes than those...

New Cr–Fe–Ln complexes with ferrocenecarboxylate and triethanolamine ligands are obtained. Tb, Dy Ho SMMs, one has the anisotropy barrier of 75 K. Thermolysis leads to Cr 0.75 Fe 1.25 O 3 LnCr 0.25 phases.

Bis(imino)diphenylamido rare-earth metal dialkyl complexes [o-(2,6-(i)Pr(2)-C(6)H(3)-N=C-C(6)H(4))(2)-N]Ln(CH(2)SiMe(3))(2) (1: Ln = Sc; 2: Ln = Lu; 3: Ln = Y) have been synthesized in good yields and structurally characterized by elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. They serve as highly efficient single-component catalysts both for the living ring...

Two unique series of lanthanide complexes [Ln(Ph3PO)4(NCS)3] (Ln = La-Tb, except Pm) and [Ln(Ph3PO)3(NCS)3] Sm-Lu, Y) have been structurally characterised. The isomorphous crystallises in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P21/c, metals display a capped octahedral coordination geometry. In contrast, crystallise non-centrosymmetric R3, with metal displaying an geometry; fac-isomer being ...

Abstract Synthesis and structural characterization of two heterodinuclear Zn II -Ln III complexes with the formula [ZnLn(HL)(µ-OAc)(NO 3 ) 2 (H O) x (MeOH) 1-x ]NO · n H O MeOH [Ln = Pr ( 1 ), Nd )] crystal molecular structure [ZnNd(HL)(µ-OAc)(NO O)] [ZnNd(HL)(OAc)(NO O)](NO are reported. The asymmetrical compartmental ligand E )-2-(1-(2-((2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)amino)-ethyl)imidazolidi...

Lupus nephritis (LN) is an autoimmune disease that occurs when autoantibodies complex with self-antigen and form immune complexes that accumulate in the glomeruli. These immune complexes initiate an inflammatory response resulting in glomerular injury. LN often concomitantly affects the tubulointerstitial compartment of the kidney, leading first to interstitial inflammation and subsequently to ...

Two linear tetranuclear lanthanide complexes of general formula [Ln(4)(L)(2)(C(6)H(5)COO)(12)(MeOH)(4)], where HL = 2,6-bis((furan-2-ylmethylimino)methyl)-4-methylphenol, () and Ln(III) = Dy(III) (1) and Gd(III) (2), have been synthesized and characterized. The crystal structural analysis demonstrates that two Schiff-base ligands inhibit the growth of benzoate bridged 1D chains, leading to the ...
