Abstract
By reacting a 3,6-ditriazolyl-2,5-dihydroxybenzoquinone (H2trz2An) anilato linker with LnIII ions (LnIII = Dy, Tb, Ho), two different series of polymorphs, formulated as [Ln2(trz2An)3(H2O)4] n ·10H2O (DyIII, 1a; TbIII, 2a, HoIII, 3a) and [Ln2(trz2An)3(H2O)4] n ·7H2O (DyIII, 1b, TbIII, 2b, HoIII, 3b) have been obtained. In these series the two DyIII-coordination networks (1a and 1b) and the TbIII-coordination polymer (2b) show a Single Ion Magnet (SIM) behavior. 1-3a MOFs show reversible structural flexibility upon removal of a coordinated water molecule from a distorted hexagonal 2D framework to a distorted 3,6-brickwall rectangular 3D structure in [Ln2(trz2An)3(H2O)2] n ·2H2O (DyIII, 1a_des; TbIII, 2a_des, HoIII, 3a_des) involving shrinkage/expansion of the hexagonal-rectangular networks. Noteworthy, 2b represents the first example of a TbIII-anilate-based coordination polymer showing SIM behaviour to date and the best SIM properties within the polymorphs. Theoretical investigation via ab initio CASSCF calculations supports this behavior, since 2b shows less mixing between the m J states of the ground state among all the studied complexes.

Abstract
Novel heteroleptic anilate-based lanthanide MOFs (LnIII = Tb, Dy, Ho) have been obtained under hydrothermal conditions by the ancillary ligand synthetic strategy. These structurally isomorphous species contain octacoordinated LnIII ions with coordination polyhedra approaching an ideal D2d symmetry, best described by a distorted biaugmented trigonal prismatic C2v geometry. In the whole series, only the Dy-MOF exhibits SMM behaviour.

Abstract
Traditional models of lanthanide electronic structure suggest that bonding is predominantly ionic, and that covalent orbital mixing is not an important factor in determining magnetic properties. Here, 4f orbital mixing and its impact on the magnetic susceptibility of Cp'3Eu (Cp' = C5H4SiMe3) was analyzed experimentally using magnetometry and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) methods at the C K-, Eu M5,4-, and L3-edges. Pre-edge features in the experimental and TDDFT-calculated C K-edge XAS spectra provided unequivocal evidence of C 2p and Eu 4f orbital mixing in the π-antibonding orbital of a' symmetry. The charge-transfer configurations resulting from 4f orbital mixing were identified spectroscopically by using Eu M5,4-edge and L3-edge XAS. Modeling of variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility data showed excellent agreement with the XAS results and indicated that increased magnetic susceptibility of Cp'3Eu is due to removal of the degeneracy of the 7F1 excited state due to mixing between the ligand and Eu 4f orbitals.

Abstract
The electronic structure and circular dichroism spectra of the ytterbium(III) complex [Yb(DOTMA)]- are calculated using complete and restricted active space self-consistent field wavefunction methods with the spin-orbit coupling treated by the state interaction approach. The influence of the dynamical correlation effect is then included via the 2nd order perturbation method. The experimental circular dichroism spectrum is well reproduced by calculations, both in terms of relative energy excitations and in terms of rotatory strength intensities. The results allow highlighting the mechanism that drives the chiroptical properties in Yb(III) complexes and reveal the importance of taking into account the 4f125d1 electronic configurations in the calculated wavefunctions to properly describe the chiroptical properties of the 4f-4f transitions.

Abstract
Natural transition orbitals (NTOs) are in widespread use for visualizing and analyzing electronic transitions. The present work introduces the analysis of formally spin-forbidden transitions with the help of complex-valued spin-orbit (SO) NTOs. The analysis specifically focuses on the components in such transitions that cause their intensity to be nonzero because of SO coupling. Transition properties such as transition dipole moments are partitioned into SO-NTO hole-particle pairs, such that contributions to the intensity from specific occupied and unoccupied orbitals are obtained. The method has been implemented within the restricted active space (RAS) self-consistent field wave function theory framework, with SO coupling treated by RAS state interaction. SO-NTOs have a broad range of potential applications, which is illustrated by the T2-S1 state mixing in pyrazine, spin-forbidden versus spin-allowed 4f-5d transitions in the Tb3+ ion, and the phosphorescence of tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium [Ir(ppy)3].

Abstract
The synthesis, structural and photophysical characterization, and theoretical studies on homo/heteroleptic neutral 2D-layered coordination polymers (CPs), obtained by combining the ErIII ion with chlorocyananilate (ClCNAn) and/or tetrafluoroterephthalate (F4BDC) linkers, are herein reported. The structure of the heteroleptic ErIII-based CP, formulated as [Er2(ClCNAn)2(F4BDC)(DMSO)6]n (1) is also reported. 1 crystallizes in the triclinic P1̅ space group, and the structure consists of neutral 2D layers formed by ErIII ions linked through the two linkers oriented in such a way that the neighboring 2D layers are eclipsed along the a axis, leading to parallelogram-like cavities. Photophysical measurements highlight the prominent role of chlorocyananilate linkers as optical antennas toward lanthanide ions, while wave-function-theory analysis supports the experimental findings, providing evidence for the effect of ligand substitution on the luminescence properties of homo/heteroleptic 2D CPs.

Abstract
One mononuclear complex [Dy(Htpy)(NO3)2(acac)] (1) and a tpy--extended 1D chain {[Dy(CH3OH)(NO3)2(tpy)]·CH3OH}n (2) (Htpy = 4'-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine, Hacac = acetylacetone) were successfully designed to investigate the effect of bond length tuning around the DyIII cation on the magnetic dynamics of single-molecule magnets (SMMs). Interestingly, two magnetic entities possess the same local coordination sphere (N3O6-donor) as well as the configuration (Muffin, Cs) of dysprosium centers. Only a slight difference in structure results from purposefully substituting the acetylacetone ligand in 1 with hydroxyl oxygen from tpy- linkage and one methanol molecule in 2. However, the remarkable differences in dynamics behavior were clearly found between them. Compound 1 possesses a thermal-activated effective energy barrier (Ueff/kB) of 22.7 K under a 0 kOe direct current (dc) field and negligible hysteresis loop at 2.0 K, while complex 2 shows high-performance SMM behavior with the largest energy barrier of 354.36 K among the reported nine-coordinated DyIII-based systems and the magnetic hysteresis up to 4.0 K at a sweep rate of 200 Oe s-1. These experimental results combined with the previous reported data reveal that the shortest bond and the bond length difference around the DyIII center synergistically determine the dynamics of SMMs. The uniaxial anisotropy increases with the decrease of the shortest bond and the increase of the bond length difference, which is confirmed by the theoretical calculations.

Abstract
The magnetic properties of a series of organometallic complexes [LnCp3]- and Ln(CNT)2, where Cp = cyclopentadienyl and CNT = cyclononatetraenyl, of the lanthanide ions in the 2+ oxidation state, are theoretically studied in terms of the electronic structure obtained via multiconfigurational wave function-based methods. Calculations are performed for two groups of ion complexes selected based on their preferred electronic configuration 4fn+1 or 4fn5d1 (n is the number of f electrons in the 3+ ion). All the properties are discussed in terms of the electron density distribution of the ground state and ligand field effects. This analysis allows giving some molecular design strategies relevant to exploit the magnetic properties in applications like Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) for lanthanide ions in the 2+ oxidation state.

Abstract
The electronic structure of Eu2+ compounds results from a complex combination of strongly correlated electrons and relativistic effects as well as weak ligand-field interaction. There is tremendous interest in calculating the electronic structure as nowadays the Eu2+ ion is becoming more and more crucial, for instance, in lighting technologies. Recently, interest in semiempirical methods to qualitatively evaluate the electronic structure and to model the optical spectra has gained popularity, although the theoretical methods strongly rely upon empirical inputs, hindering their prediction capabilities. Besides, ab initio multireference models are computationally heavy and demand very elaborative theoretical background. Herein, application of the ligand-field density functional theory (LFDFT) method that is recently available in the Amsterdam Modeling Suite is shown: (i) to elucidate the electronic structure properties on the basis of the multiplet energy levels of Eu configurations 4f7 and 4f65d1 and (ii) to model the optical spectra quite accurately if compared to the conventional time-dependent density functional theory tool. We present a theoretical study of the molecular Eu(η9-C9H9)2 complex and its underlying photoluminescence properties with respect to the Eu 4f-5d electron transitions. We model the excitation and emission spectra with good agreement with the experiments, opening up the possibility of modeling lanthanides in complex environment like nanomaterials by means of LFDFT at much-reduced computational resources and cost.

Abstract
Single-molecule magnets based on lanthanides are very attractive due to their potential applications proposed in the area of microelectronic devices. Very recent advances in this area are due to the blend of conventional lanthanide chemistry with organometallic ligands, and several breakthrough achievements are attained with this combination. Ab initio methods based on multi-reference CASSCF calculations are playing a vital role in the design and development of such molecules. In this minireview, we aim to appraise various contributions in the area of organometallic lanthanide complexes (those containing lanthanide-carbon bonds) and describe how these robust wavefunction-based methods have played a constructive role not only in rationalizing the observed magnetic properties but also proven to be a potential predictive tool with some selected examples.

Abstract
The ground state structures of neutral and anionic Lnn(COT)m (Ln = Ce, Nd, Eu, Ho and Yb; n, m = 1, 2) complexes have been identified by density functional theory. Ln(COT)1,20/- and Ln2(COT)20/- complexes are found to possess sandwich ground state structures in which Ln atoms and COT molecules are alternately stacked except for Nd2COT20/-. Our calculated AEA and VDE values show good agreement with the available experimental values, which validates that our obtained ground state structures are credible. Based on the frontier molecular orbitals, we find that the bond formation between the 4f electrons of Ln atoms and the π clouds of COT molecules is weak. Then, the bond strength within these complexes is further analyzed based on the topological analysis of electron density at bond critical point. By analyzing Hirshfeld charge, we find Lnn(COT)m0/- are charge-transfer complexes with weak bonding feature.

Abstract
The monomer [Ce(COT)2]- and the dimer [Ce2(COT)3], with Ce(III) and COT = 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraenide, are studied by quantum chemistry calculations. Due to the large spin-orbit coupling, the ground state of the monomer is a strong mixing of σ and π states. The experimental isotropic coupling in the dimer was evaluated by Walter et al. to be J = -7 cm-1 (with a Heisenberg Hamiltonian [Formula: see text]) with a small anisotropic coupling of 0.02 cm-1. The coupling between the two Ce(III) in the dimer is calculated using CI methods. The low energy part of the spectra are modeled by spin Hamiltonians. All spin Hamiltonians parameters are deduced from ab initio calculations. g factors are calculated for both the pseudodoublet of the monomer and the pseudotriplet of the dimer and their sign have been determined. The magnetic coupling in the dimer is rationalized by a model based on crystal field theory. The kinetic and exchange contributions arising from the different configurations to the isotropic and anisotropic couplings are evaluated. It is shown that the main contribution to isotropic coupling is kinetic and originates from the fσ-fσ interaction due to the large transfer integral between those orbitals. However, the fπ-fπ interaction plays a non-negligible role. The anisotropic coupling originates from the difference of exchange energy of states arising from the fσfπ configuration and is, in no matter, related to the anisotropy of the local magnetic moments as already pointed by van Vleck for a fictitious s-p system. The analysis of the natural orbitals evidences a superexchange mechanism through a σCH* orbital of the bridging cycle favored by a local 4fσ/5dσ hybridization and that the δ type orbitals, both the HOMOs of the ligands and the virtual fδ orbitals of the cerium atoms play an important polarization role, and to a less extend the π type orbitals, the HOMOs-1 of the ligands, and the metal fπ orbitals.

Abstract
U(C7H7)2- is a fascinating 5f1 complex whose metal-ligand bonding was assigned in the literature as being very similar to 3d7 cobaltocene, based on a crystal-field theoretical interpretation of the experimental magnetic resonance data. The present work provides an in-depth theoretical study of the electronic structure, bonding, and magnetic properties of the 5f1 U(C7H7)2-vs. 3d metallocenes with V, Co, and Ni, performed with relativistic wavefunction and density functional methods. The ligand to metal donation bonding in U(C7H7)2- is strong and in fact similar to that in vanadocene, in the sense that the highest occupied arene orbitals donate electron density into empty metal orbitals of the same symmetry with respect to the rotational axis (3dπ for V, 5fδ for U), but selectively with α spin (↑). For Co and Ni, the dative bonding from the ligands is β spin (↓) selective into partially filled 3dπ orbitals. In all systems, this spin delocalization triggers spin polarization in the arene σ bonding framework, causing proton spin densities opposite to those of the carbons. As a consequence, the proton spin densities and hyperfine coupling constants are negative for the Co and Ni complex, but positive for vanadocene. The of U(C7H7)2- is negative and similar to that of cobaltocene, but only because of the strong spin-orbit coupling in the actinocene, which causes to be opposite to the sign of the proton spin density. The study contributes to a better understanding of actinide 5f vs. transition metal 3d covalency, and highlights potential pitfalls when interpreting experimental magnetic resonance data in terms of covalent bonding for actinide complexes.

RSC Adv 2018; 8:29513-29525.

Abstract
Two Dy(iii) single-ion magnets, formulated as [Dy(Phen)(Cl-tcpb)3] (Cl-1) and [Dy(Phen)(CH3O-tmpd)3] (CH3O-2) were obtained through β-diketonate ligands (Cl-tcpb = 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-1,3-butanedione and CH3O-tmpd = 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-butanedione) with different substituent groups (–Cl/–OCH3) and auxiliary ligand, 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen). The Dy(iii) ions in Cl-1 and CH3O-2 are eight-coordinate, with an approximately square antiprismatic (SAP, D4d) and trigonal dodecahedron (D2d) N2O6 coordination environment, respectively, in the first coordination sphere. Under zero direct-current (dc) field, magnetic investigations demonstrate that both Cl-1 and CH3O-2 display dynamic magnetic relaxation of single-molecule magnet (SMM) behavior with different effective barriers (Ueff) of 105.4 cm−1 (151.1 K) for Cl-1 and 132.5 cm−1 (190.7 K) for CH3O-2, respectively. As noted, compound CH3O-2 possesses a higher effective barrier than Cl-1. From ab initio calculations, the energies of the first excited state (KD1) are indeed close to the experimental Ueff as 126.7 cm−1vs. 105.4 cm−1 for Cl-1 and 152.8 cm−1vs. 132.5 cm−1 for CH3O-2. The order of the calculated energies of KD1 is same as that of the experimental Ueff. The superior SIM properties of CH3O-2 could have originated from the larger axial electrostatic potential (ESP(ax)) felt by the central Dy(iii) ion when compared with Cl-1. The larger ESP(ax) of CH3O-2 arises from synergic effects of the more negative charge and shorter Dy–O distances of the axial O atoms of the first sphere. These charges and distances could be influenced by functional groups outside the first sphere, e.g., –Cl and –OCH3. Further studies from the viewpoint of electrostatic potential demonstrate that the larger axial electrostatic potential (ESP) felt by the central Dy (iii) ion of CH3O-2 is responsible for its better SIM property when compared with Cl-1.![]()

Abstract
A method for the experimental determination of ligand-field (LF) energy splitting in mononuclear lanthanide complexes, based purely on variable-temperature NMR spectroscopy, was developed. The application of this method in an isostructural series of anionic lanthanide bis(cyclooctatetraenide) double-decker compounds bearing large rigid substituents is demonstrated. Using the three-nuclei plot approach devised by Reilley, the isostructurality of the compound series and the identical orientation of the magnetic main axis of all Ln3+ ions in the series Tb3+ to Tm3+ are demonstrated. Measurement of the 2H NMR spectra of partially deuterated analogues of the complexes permitted determination of the axial magnetic susceptibility anisotropies χax for all five ions in the temperature range from 185 to 335 K. For this purpose, analysis of the hyperfine shifts was combined with structural models derived from density functional theory calculations. In a final step, the temperature dependence of the χax values was used for determination of the three axial LF parameters, adapting a method employed previously for phthalocyanine-based systems. The temperature dependence dictated by the LF parameters determined by this NMR-based approach is compared to the results of recently published ab initio calculations of the system, indicating reasonable agreement of both methods. For all ions except Dy3+, the NMR method determines the same mJ ground state as the calculations and the order and energies of the excited states match well. However, the sign of the magnetic anisotropy of the dysprosium complex in the temperature range evaluated here is not correctly predicted by the published calculations but can be described accurately by the NMR approach. This shows that our experimental method for determination of the LF parameters is an ideal complementation to other theoretical and experimental methods.

Abstract
The reaction of 249Bk(OH)4 with iodate under hydrothermal conditions results in the formation of Bk(IO3)3 as the major product with trace amounts of Bk(IO3)4 also crystallizing from the reaction mixture. The structure of Bk(IO3)3 consists of nine-coordinate BkIII cations that are bridged by iodate anions to yield layers that are isomorphous with those found for AmIII, CfIII, and with lanthanides that possess similar ionic radii. Bk(IO3)4 was expected to adopt the same structure as M(IO3)4 (M = Ce, Np, Pu), but instead parallels the structural chemistry of the smaller ZrIV cation. BkIII-O and BkIV-O bond lengths are shorter than anticipated and provide further support for a postcurium break in the actinide series. Photoluminescence and absorption spectra collected from single crystals of Bk(IO3)4 show evidence for doping with BkIII in these crystals. In addition to luminescence from BkIII in the Bk(IO3)4 crystals, a broad-band absorption feature is initially present that is similar to features observed in systems with intervalence charge transfer. However, the high-specific activity of 249Bk (t1/2 = 320 d) causes oxidation of BkIII and only BkIV is present after a few days with concomitant loss of both the BkIII luminescence and the broadband feature. The electronic structure of Bk(IO3)3 and Bk(IO3)4 were examined using a range of computational methods that include density functional theory both on clusters and on periodic structures, relativistic ab initio wave function calculations that incorporate spin-orbit coupling (CASSCF), and by a full-model Hamiltonian with spin-orbit coupling and Slater-Condon parameters (CONDON). Some of these methods provide evidence for an asymmetric ground state present in BkIV that does not strictly adhere to Russel-Saunders coupling and Hund's Rule even though it possesses a half-filled 5f 7 shell. Multiple factors contribute to the asymmetry that include 5f electrons being present in microstates that are not solely spin up, spin-orbit coupling induced mixing of low-lying excited states with the ground state, and covalency in the BkIV-O bonds that distributes the 5f electrons onto the ligands. These factors are absent or diminished in other f7 ions such as GdIII or CmIII.

Abstract
Berkelium is positioned at a crucial location in the actinide series between the inherently stable half-filled 5f(7) configuration of curium and the abrupt transition in chemical behavior created by the onset of a metastable divalent state that starts at californium. However, the mere 320-day half-life of berkelium's only available isotope, (249)Bk, has hindered in-depth studies of the element's coordination chemistry. Herein, we report the synthesis and detailed solid-state and solution-phase characterization of a berkelium coordination complex, Bk(III)tris(dipicolinate), as well as a chemically distinct Bk(III) borate material for comparison. We demonstrate that berkelium's complexation is analogous to that of californium. However, from a range of spectroscopic techniques and quantum mechanical calculations, it is clear that spin-orbit coupling contributes significantly to berkelium's multiconfigurational ground state.

Abstract
We have performed a theoretical analysis of the recently reported photoelectron (PE) spectra of the series of sandwich complex anions Ln(COT)2- (Ln = La-Lu, COT = 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene), focusing on the Ln dependence of the vertical detachment energies. For most Ln, the π molecular orbitals, largely localized on the COT ligands, have the energy order of e1g < e1u < e2g < e2u as in the actinide analogues, reflecting the substantial orbital interaction with the Ln 5d and 5p orbitals. Thus, it would be expected that the lanthanide contraction would increase the orbital interaction so that the overlaps between the COT π and Ln atomic orbitals tend to increase across the series. However, the PE spectra and theoretical calculations were not consistent with this expectation, and the details have been clarified in this study. Furthermore, the energy level splitting patterns of the anion and neutral complexes have been studied by multireference ab initio methods, and the X peak splittings observed in the PE spectra only for the middle-range Ln complexes were found to be due to the specific interaction between the Ln 4f and ligand π orbitals of the neutral complexes in e2u symmetry. Because the magnitude of this 4f-ligand interaction depends critically on the final state 4f electron configuration and the spin state, a significant Ln dependence in the PE spectra is explained.

Abstract
A few heteroleptic, charge-separated heterobimetallic, and polymeric alkali metalate complexes of 1,2,4-diazaphospholide lanthanum(iii), cerium(iii), neodymium(iii), praseodymium(iii), and samarium(iii) were simply prepared via the metathesis reaction of MCl3 (THF)m (m = 1-2) and K[3,5-R2dp] ([3,5-R2dp](-) = 3,5-di-substituent-1,2,4-diazaphospholide; R = tBu, Ph) in a varied ratio (1 : 3, 1 : 4, and 1 : 5, respectively) at room temperature in tetrahydrofuran. All the complexes were fully characterized by (1)H, (13)C{(1)H}, (31)P{(1)H}, IR, and X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis despite their paramagnetism (excluding La(iii) complexes). The structures of the complexes were found to feature varied coordination modes. The magnetic properties of several compounds were studied by magnetic susceptibility, and the complexes presented the magnetic moments close to or lower than the theoretical values for the free ions in the trivalent oxidation states (Pr(3+), Nd(3+)).

Abstract
The electronic structures of 4f(3)/5f(3) Cp''3M and Cp''3M·alkylisocyanide complexes, where Cp'' is 1,3-bis-(trimethylsilyl)cyclopentadienyl, are explored with a focus on the splitting of the f-orbitals, which provides information about the strengths of the metal-ligand interactions. While the f-orbital splitting in many lanthanide complexes has been reported in detail, experimental determination of the f-orbital splitting in actinide complexes remains rare in systems other than halide and oxide compounds, since the experimental approach, crystal field analysis, is generally significantly more difficult for actinide complexes than for lanthanide complexes. In this study, a set of analogous neodymium(iii) and uranium(iii) tris-cyclopentadienyl complexes and their isocyanide adducts was characterized by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility. The crystal field model was parameterized by combined fitting of EPR and susceptibility data, yielding an accurate description of f-orbital splitting. The isocyanide derivatives were also studied using density functional theory, resulting in f-orbital splitting that is consistent with crystal field fitting, and by multi-reference wavefunction calculations that support the electronic structure analysis derived from the crystal-field calculations. The results highlight that the 5f-orbitals, but not the 4f-orbitals, are significantly involved in bonding to the isocyanide ligands. The main interaction between isocyanide ligand and the metal center is a σ-bond, with additional 5f to π* donation for the uranium complexes. While interaction with the isocyanide π*-orbitals lowers the energies of the 5fxz(2) and 5fyz(2)-orbitals, spin-orbit coupling greatly reduces the population of 5fxz(2) and 5fyz(2) in the ground state.
