The phosphinoyl-substituted macrocyclic receptor B8bL8, derived from p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene, was synthesized and its structure was studied in solution. According to temperaturedependent 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopic data, the calix[8]arene adopts a so-ca ...
New polydentate ligands (e.g., Tsox and TsoxMe) have been synthesized to take advantage of the chelating effect of bidentate 8-hydroxyquinolinate subunits connected to a N,N,N¢,N¢-tetraaminopropyl-1,2-ethylenediamine framework and with the aim of sensitizi ...
The synthesis of the potentially nonadentate ligand 1,4,7-tris[(6-carboxypyridin-2-yl)methyl]-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (H3tpatcn), a new derivative of 1,4,7-triazacyclononane N-functionalised with three pyridinecarboxylate arms, is described. The complexes ...
Ligand field effects in lanthanide ions compounds have consequences for optical and magnetic spectroscopy. In the analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of Gd3+ complexes, a major role is played by the zero field splitting (ZFS), which is a hi ...
The segmental bidentate–tridentate–bidentate ligand L2 reacts with MII (M = Cr, Zn) and LnIII (Ln = La, Eu, Gd, Tb, Lu) to give the heterotrimetallic triple-stranded helicates [MLnM(L2)3]7+. For M = ZnII, the isolated complexes ZnLnZn(L2)37 (Ln = ...
The first part of this short review focuses on the insertion of luminescent lanthanide ions into molecular compounds. The main requirements for the development of highly luminescent chelates with potential applications in biomedical analysis and time-resol ...
We investigated he effect of film orientation on piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of (Bi(3.25)Ln(0.75))Ti3O12 (Ln=La, Nd, and Sm). c-axis-oriented films were grown on (111)Pt electrodes with nondoped Bi4Ti3O12 buffer layers. The films grown on (1 ...
Recent neutron-diffraction studies on dilute solutions have shown that a change in coordination numbers from nine to eight water molecules in the first hydration sphere occurs when going from the light to the heavy lanthanide (III) ions. To acquire a deepe ...
The isolation and characterization of Ln(NO3)3 complexes (Ln=La, Pr, Nd, Eu, Tb, Lu) with 2,3-benzo-1,4,7,13-tetraoxa-10-azacyclo-penta-decane (L1) and two of its N-substituted derivatives (L2, L3) are reported. Structural information in the solid state is ...
