New dinuclear compounds of dysprosium and erbium constructed by an O-vanillin ligand and β-diketonate coligand: Synthesis, near-Infrared luminescent and magnetism

Five Dinuclear Lanthanide Complexes Based on 2,4-dimethylbenzoic Acid and 5,5'-dimethy-2,2'-bipyridine: Crystal Structures, Thermal Behaviour and Luminescent Property

A series of new complexes, [Ln (2,4-DMBA)3(5,5'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2 (Ln = Sm(1), Eu (2)), [Pr (2,4-DMBA)3 (5,5'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·0.5(C2H5OH) (3), [Ln (2,4-DMBA)3 (5,5'-DM-2,2'-bipy)]2·0.5(2,4-DMBAH)·0.25(5,5'-DM-2,2'-bipy) (Ln = Tb (4), Dy (5)) (2,4-DMBA = 2,4-dimethylbenzoate, 5,5'-DM-2,2'-bipy = 5,5'-dimethy-2,2'-bipyridine) were synthesized via hydrothermal reaction conditions. The complexes were characterized through elemental analysis, Infrared spectra (IR), Raman (R) spectra, UV-Vis spectra, single X-ray diffraction. Single crystal data show that complexes 1-5 are binuclear complexes, but they can be divided into three different crystal structures. The thermal decomposition mechanism of complexes 1-5 were investigated by the technology of simultaneous TG/DSC-FTIR. What's more, the luminescent properties of complexes 1-2 and 4 were discussed, and the luminescence lifetime (τ) of complexes 2 and 4 were calculated.

Substituent effects of auxiliary ligands in mononuclear dibenzoylmethane DyIII/ErIII complexes: single-molecule magnetic behavior and luminescence properties

The single-molecule magnetic behavior and luminescence of [(dbm)₃Ln(dmbipy)] and [(dbm)₂Ln(dmobipy)(NO₃)] are significantly modified by replacing the substituents of auxiliary ligands.
