Based on enantiopure S- or R-(1-phenylethylamino)methylphosphonic acid (pempH(2)), homochiral lanthanide phosphonates (S)-[Ln(pempH)(NO(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)] (S-Ln) and (R)-[Ln(pempH)(NO(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)] (R-Ln) (Ln = Eu, Tb, Ho) are obtained successfully. All six compounds are isostructural, showing chiral brick-wall-shaped layer structures. They are all optically active, exhibiting second harmonic generation responses 0.7 times that of urea. The Eu and Tb compounds display strong red and green luminescent properties, respectively, with long luminescent lifetimes at the level of milliseconds. The catalytic properties of the dehydrated S-Tb are studied.

Hierarchical self-assembly driven by non-covalent interactions is a prevalent strategy employed by nature to construct sophisticated biomacromolecules, such as proteins. However, the construction of protein-like superstructures that rely on weaker dispersion forces-driven hierarchical assembly remains largely unexplored. Here, we report the first example of dispersion forces driving the high-order assembly of the lanthanide trinuclear circular helicate [HNEt₃]₃[Eu₃(L)₆] (ΔΔΔ-1) into a protein-like lanthanide octamer ((ΔΔΔ-1)₈-2).

Lanthanide-based molecular materials showing efficient circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) activity with a high quantum yield are attractive due to their potential applications in data storage, optical sensors, and 3D displays. Herein we present an innovative method to achieve enhanced CPL activity and a high quantum yield by doping a chromophore ligand into a coordination polymer superhelix. A series of homochiral europium(III) phosphonates with a helical morphology were prepared with the molecular formula -, -[Eu(cyampH)(nempH)]·3HO (/, = 0-5%).

Lanthanide peroxides show high reactivity in oxidative coupling of methane (OCM). However, the number of isolated and structurally characterized molecular species remains relatively small. To the best of our knowledge, homochiral molecule-based lanthanide peroxides have not been reported.

Two pairs of chiral end-on azido-bridged dinuclear hexaazamacrocycles, [Dy (L ) (N ) Cl ](BPh ) (1R/1S) and [Dy (L ) (N ) ]Cl (2R/2S) (L is hexaazamacrocyclic neutral Schiff base ligand derived from 2,6-diformylpyridine and (1R, 2R)/(1S, 2S)-diaminocyclohexane), were constructed by adjusting the molar ratio of sodium azide to Dy(III) macrocycle precursor. Structural analyses reveal that all Dy(III) centers in complexes 1R/1S and 2R/2S are nine-coordinate with hula-loop coordination geometry, and the differences between 1R/1S and 2R/2S are the terminal coordination anion and counter anion. Magnetic studies indicate that complex 2S displays typical SMM behaviors under a zero dc field, whereas 1S just shows slow relaxation of magnetization resulting from a relatively weak axial crystal field.

It is extremely difficult to anticipate the structure and the stereochemistry of a complex, particularly when the ligand is flexible and the metal node adopts diverse coordination numbers. When trivalent lanthanides (Ln) and enantiopure amino acid ligands are utilized as building blocks, self-assembly sometimes yields rare chiral polynuclear structures. In this study, an enantiopure carboxyl-functionalized amino acid-based ligand with symmetry reacts with lanthanum cations to give a homochiral porous coordination cage, (Δ/Λ)-.
