Abstract
Terdentate ligands L10-L14 and their heteroleptic [LkLn(hfac)3] complexes (Ln = La, Eu, Gd, Er, or Y; H-hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoropentane-2,4-dione) exhibit multifactorial correlations between the ligand's structural frameworks, including their level of preorganization and steric congestion and their affinities and selectivities for catching the trivalent lanthanide containers [Ln(hfac)3]. The polyaromatic ligand scaffolds could be stepwise modulated via lanthanide-template synthetic strategies, using intermolecular rhodium-catalyzed insertion reactions. The increasing level of preorganization along the L10 → L11 → L12 series leads to a duality in which larger thermodynamic formation constants with lanthanides in CD2Cl2 are accompanied by an unexpected decrease in the Ln-N affinities in the solid state, which could be assigned to a limited match between the lanthanide size and the enlarged preorganized cavities. On the contrary, a reduced stability is induced by the connection of additional methyl groups at position 1 of the benzimidazole moieties in L13 and L14, which is accompanied by an optimization of metal-nitrogen bond lengths. This study contributes to the rational design of highly stable neutral heteroleptic lanthanide β-diketonate adducts that resist dissociation in solution, a prerequisite for photophysical applications using these highly luminescent systems at the molecular level.

Abstract
Although metal-containing organic polymers are becoming essential for modern applications in lighting, catalysis, and electronic devices, very little is known about their controlled metallic loading, which mainly limits their design to empirical mixing followed by characterization and often hampers rational developments. Focusing on the appealing optical and magnetic properties of 4f-block cations, the host-guest reactions leading to linear lanthanidopolymers already display some unexpected dependence of the binding-site affinities on the length of the organic polymer backbone: a drift usually, and erroneously, assigned to intersite cooperativity. Taking advantage of the parameters obtained for the stepwise thermodynamic loading of a series of rigid linear multi-tridentate organic receptors with increasing length, N = 1 (monomer L1), N = 2 (dimer L2), and N = 3 (trimer L3), with [Ln(hfa)3] containers in solution (Ln = trivalent lanthanide cations, hfa- = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-pentane-2,4-dione anion), it is demonstrated here that the site-binding model, based on the Potts-Ising approach, successfully predicts the binding properties of the novel soluble polymer P2N made up of nine successive binding units . An in-depth examination of the photophysical properties of these lanthanidopolymers shows impressive UV→vis downshifting quantum yields for the europium-based red luminescence, which can be modulated by the length of the polymeric chain.

Abstract
The concept of preorganization is famous in coordination chemistry for having transformed flexible bidentate 2,2'-bipyridine scaffolds into rigid 1,10-phenanthroline platforms. The resulting boosted affinities for d-block cations has successfully paved the way for the design of a wealth of functional complexes, devices and materials for analysis and optics. Its extension toward terdentate homologues adapted for the selective complexation of f-block cations with larger coordination numbers remains more overlooked. The resulting rigidification of 2,6-bis(1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pyridine ligands (L1-L7) produces the highly preorganized and extended polyaromatic benzo[4',5']imidazo[1',2' : 1,2]pyrido[3,4-b]benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-h][1,7]naphthyridines (L8-L11) receptors, which offer some novel and rare opportunities for efficiently complexing trivalent lanthanides with polyaromatic soft terimine ligands. The crystal structures of the stable heteroleptic [LkLn(hfac)3 ] adducts (Lk=L1, L8, L9; Ln=La, Eu, Gd, Er, Yb, Y; H-hfac=1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoropentane-2,4-dione) show a drastic decrease in the Ln-N bond valences upon replacement of the flexible ligand L1 with its preorganized counterparts L8 and L9. This points to a limited match between the preorganized cavity and the entering [Ln(hfac)3 ] lanthanide containers. However, thermodynamic studies conducted in dichloromethane reach the opposite conclusion, with an improved affinity, by up to three orders of magnitude for catching Ln(hfac)3 when L1 is replaced by the preorganized L8-L9 receptors. The key to the enigma lies in the removal of the energy penalty which accompanies the formation of flexible [L1Ln(hfac)3 ] complexes in solution. This driving force overcomes the poor match between the preorganized terdentate N∩ N∩ N cavity in L8 and L9 and the size of trivalent lanthanides. As planned, the rigid, planar and extended π-conjugated system found in L8 and L9 shifts the ligand-centered absorption bands by about 5000 cm-1 toward lower energies, a crucial point if these stable [L8Ln(hfac)3 ] and [L9Ln(hfac)3 ] platforms have to be considered for the visible sensitization of luminescent lanthanides in metallopolymers.

Abstract
The adducts between luminescent lanthanide tris(β-diketonate)s and diimine or triimine ligands have been explored exhaustively for their exceptional photophysical properties. Their formation, stability, and structures in solution, together with the design of extended metallopolymers exploiting these building blocks, remain, however, elusive. The systematic peripheral substitution of tridentate 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine binding units (Lk = L1-L5), taken as building blocks for linear oligomers and polymers, allows a fine-tuning of their affinity toward neutral [Ln(hfa)3] (hfa = hexafluoroacetylacetonate) lanthanide containers in the [LkLn(hfa)3] adducts. Two trends emerge with (i) an unusual pronounced thermodynamic selectivity for midrange lanthanides (Ln = Eu) and (ii) an intriguing influence of remote peripheral substitutions of the benzimidazole rings on the affinity of the tridentate unit for [Ln(hfa)3]. These trends are amplified upon the connection of several tridentate binding units via their benzimidazole rings to give linear segmental dimers (L6) and trimers (L7), which are considered as models for programming linear Wolf-Type II metallopollymers. Modulation of the affinity between the terminal and central binding units in the linear multitridentate ligands deciphers the global decrease of metal-ligand binding strengths with an increase in the length of the receptors (monomer → dimer → trimer → polymer). Application of the site binding model shed light onto the origin of the variation of the thermodynamic affinities: a prerequisite for the programmed loading of a polymer backbone with luminescent lanthanide β-diketonates. Analysis of the crystal structures for these adducts reveals delicate correlations between the chemical bond lengths measured in the solid state (or bond valence parameters) and the metal-ligand affinities operating in solution.

Abstract
The coordination properties of the ligand 2,2'-bipyrimidine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (H2bpd) with lanthanide(III) ions (Ln = Eu, Tb, or Lu) were investigated. The syntheses of the H2bpd ligand and its salts, [K2(bpd)(H2O)2] (1) and [(AlkNH)Lu(bpd)2] (Alk = Et, Hex, or en), are described. In the presence of LnCl3 salts (Ln = Lu, Eu, or Tb), the formation of [Ln(bpd)2]- and [Ln(bpd)(H2O)x]+ species was assessed by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), spectrophotometry, and spectrofluorometric titrations in aqueous solution. The solid state structure of 1, [K(H2O)2][Lu(bpd)2] (2), and [(Et3NH)Lu(bpd)2] (3) could be determined by X-ray diffraction, showing the ligand to act as a tetradentate unit with formation of three five-membered chelate rings around the central Ln(III). With the aim of building polynuclear assemblies, the coordination between [Lu(bdp)2]- and [Lu(tta)3(H2O)] units (tta = thenoyltrifluoroacetylacetonate) was also investigated. In methanol, 1H NMR titration experiments revealed the formation of complex mixtures from which two new species could be identified, [Lu2(bpd)(tta)4] (4) and H[Lu(bpd)(tta)2] (5), as confirmed by their solid state structure analysis. Using highly lipophilic cations in chloroform, the octametallic complex [enH]4[Lu8(bpd)4(tta)18] (6) could be isolated and its X-ray structure determined.

Abstract
Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is the gold standard for accurate measurement of thermodynamic parameters in solution reactions. In the data processing of ITC, the non-constant variance of the heat requires special consideration. The variance function approach has been successfully applied in previous studies, but is found to fail under certain conditions in this work. Here, an explicit ITC measurement model consisting of main thermal effects and error components has been proposed to quantitatively evaluate and predict the non-constant variance of the heat data under various conditions. Monte Carlo simulation shows that the ITC measurement model provides higher accuracy and flexibility than variance function in high c-value reactions or with additional error components, for example, originated from the fluctuation of the concentrations or other properties of the solutions. The experimental design of basic error evaluation is optimized accordingly and verified by both Monte Carlo simulation and experiments. An easy-to-run Python source code is provided to illustrate the establishment of the ITC measurement model and the estimation of heat variances. The accurate and reliable non-constant variance of heat is helpful to the application of weighted least squares regression, the proper evaluation or selection of the reaction model.

Abstract
Metallopolymers (MPs) or metal-containing polymers have shown great potential as new drug delivery systems (DDSs) due to their unique properties, including universal architectures, composition, properties and surface chemistry. Over the past few decades, the exponential growth of many new classes of MPs that deal with these issues has been demonstrated. This review presents and assesses the recent advances and challenges associated with using MPs as DDSs. Among the most widely used MPs for these purposes, metal complexes based on synthetic and natural polymers, coordination polymers, metal-organic frameworks, and metallodendrimers are distinguished. Particular attention is paid to the stimulus- and multistimuli-responsive metallopolymer-based DDSs. Of considerable interest is the use of MPs for combination therapy and multimodal systems. Finally, the problems and future prospects of using metallopolymer-based DDSs are outlined. The bibliography includes articles published over the past five years.
