The reaction of lanthanide(III) nitrates with 4-(pyridin-2-yl)methyleneamino-1,2,4-triazole (L) was studied. The compounds [Ln(NO ) (H O) ]⋅2 L, in which Ln=Eu (1), Gd (2), Tb (3), or Dy (4), obtained in a mixture of MeCN/EtOH have the same structure, as shown by XRD. In the crystals of these compounds, the mononuclear complex units [Ln(NO ) (H O) ] are linked to L molecules through intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions to form a 2D polymeric supramolecular architecture. An investigation into the optical characteristics of the Eu -, Tb -, and Dy -containing compounds (1, 3, and 4) showed that these complexes displayed metal-centered luminescence. According to magnetic measurements, compound 4 exhibits single-ion magnet behavior, with ΔE /k =86 K in a field of 1500 Oe.

Lanthanide (Ln) tetrakis complexes, C[Ln(L)], are important for applications due to their high quantum yields, solubility, and stability. Their luminescent properties depend on the structure, particularly the coordination polyhedron, the assessment of computational methods for calculating their structures is paramount. Usually, this assessment uses the RMSD of distances in the [Ln(L)] complex or {LnO} polyhedron between crystallographic and calculated structures.

The nucleotides play multiple fundamental roles that are essential in biochemical enzymatic reactions and signaling pathways. Many diseases are closely associated with their dysregulation. Therefore, reliable and sensitive optical probes to discriminate various nucleotides are essential in biochemistry, drug discovery, and disease diagnosis.

The design and synthesis of novel lanthanide-based coordination polymers (Ln-CPs) from flexible organic ligands is still attractive and challenging. In this work, two isostructural Ln-CPs with a unique 2D network, namely, [Ln(HL)(DMF)]] (Ln = Dy for , Tb for ) based on a flexible polycarboxylic acid ligand hexakis(4-carboxylato-phenoxy)cyclotriphosphazene (HL), have been solvothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Significantly, it is the first observation of polycarboxylic acid ligands participating in coordination in the construction of coordination polymers in the form of semi-deprotonation.

Radical lanthanide complexes are appealing platforms to investigate the possibility to engineer relevant magnetic couplings between the two magnetic centers by exploiting the strongly donating magnetic orbitals of the radical. In this paper, we report a spectroscopic and magnetic study on [LnRad(NO)], where Ln = Eu or Lu and Rad is the tridentate tripodal nitroxyl radical 4,4-dimethyl-2,2-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,3-oxazolidine-3-oxyl. A thorough magnetic investigation by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and magnetometry, fully supported by calculations, allowed us to unravel an unprecedentedly large antiferromagnetic coupling between the Eu and the radical ( = +19.

Modulation of the crystal field (CF) in lanthanide (Ln) complexes can enhance optical and magnetic properties, and large CF splitting can be achieved with low coordination numbers in specific geometries. We previously reported that the homoleptic near-linear Sm complex [Sm{N(SiPr)}] () is oxidized by the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy (TEMPO) radical to give the heteroleptic, approximately trigonal planar Sm complex, [Sm{N(SiPr)}(TEMPO)] (). Here, we report the synthesis of homologous [Ln{N(SiPr)}(TEMPO)] (; Ln = Tm, Yb) complexes by the oxidation of the parent [Ln{N(SiPr)}] (; Ln = Tm, Yb) with TEMPO; complexes all contain TEMPO anions.
