Two symmetric ligands harbouring two TEMPO radicals and two functionalized acetamide arms (R = OMe (L1), CF (L2)) were prepared and chelated to lanthanide ions (Eu, Yb for both L1 and L2, Dy for L1). Luminescence measurements on the europium complexes support the coordination of a single water molecule. The TEMPO arms are magnetically interacting in L1 (and its complexes) but not in L2. The TEMPO moieties can be reversibly oxidized into an oxoammonium (0.33-0.36 V Fc/Fc) or reduced into a hydroxylamine (ill-defined redox wave, reduction by ascorbate), which are both diamagnetic. The europium complexes [Eu(L1)]3+ and [Eu(L2)]3+ in their hydroxylamine form exhibit a temperature dependent CEST effect, which is maximal at 25 °C (30%) and 37 °C (12%), respectively. The CEST activity is dramatically reduced in the corresponding nitroxide forms due to the paramagnetism of the ligand. The europium complexes show no cytotoxicity against M21 cell lines over long incubation times (72 h) at high concentration (40 μM).

A sensitized dual-response ratiometric fluorescent sensor integrated smartphone platform for accurate discrimination and detection of tetracycline (TC) homologues was fabricated based on N-CDs-Eu complex. In the sensing system, N-CDs act as a sensitizer of Eu and significantly enhance the fluorescence of TC-Eu complex approximate 40-fold owing to the synergistic effect of antenna effect (AE) and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). A paper sensor integrated with a smartphone platform is further fabricated for on-site measurement of TC.

High-charge micas exhibit improved adsorption properties and are a promising alternative clay material for the engineered barrier in deep geological repositories. When combined with Eu cations, they serve as an in situ luminescent probe for tracking the physical-chemical changes occurring in this engineered barrier over the long term. Therefore, a better understanding of the local environment of the lanthanide is highly desirable to comprehend the specific behavior of these systems.

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.

We developed a systematic polarizable force field for molten trivalent rare-earth chlorides, from lanthanum to europium, based on first-principle calculations. The proposed model was employed to investigate the local structure and physicochemical properties of pure molten salts and their mixtures with sodium chloride. We computed densities, heat capacities, surface tensions, viscosities, and diffusion coefficients and disclosed their evolution along the lanthanide series, filling the gaps for poorly studied elements, such as promethium and europium.

Cobalt-based metal-organic framework (MOFs)-derived catalysts are acknowledged for their effectiveness in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the treatment of persistent pollutants. However, the limited adsorption of PMS on the catalyst surface markedly reduces its degradation efficiency. To overcome this limitation, nanoflower-like EuO/CoO-0.
