AI Article Synopsis
- The tripodal ligand tris(2-pyridyl)carbinol forms a unique tetradentate coordination with homodinuclear lanthanide complexes, resulting in very short distances between metal ions.
- The Eu(III) and Tb(III) complexes featuring this ligand display strong luminescence, indicating effective energy transfer from the ligand to the metal centers.
- This suggests that the ligand is well-suited for enhancing the luminescent properties of lanthanide-based complexes.
Article Abstract
A tripodal ligand, tris(2-pyridyl)carbinol, affords a novel tetradentate coordination mode in homodinuclear lanthanide complexes, which exhibit remarkably short distances between metal ions. The strong luminescences of Eu(III) and Tb(III) complexes with the ligand demonstrate that the ligand has a suitable excited state for energy transfer from the ligand to the Eu(III) and Tb(III) centers, respectively.
