Rare earth (RE) ternary complexes of Eu0.5Ln0.5(NPPD)3·(DPQ) (HNPPD=1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-3-phenylpropane-1,3-dione; DPQ= dipyridobenzoquinone) and Eu1-xLax(NPPD)3·(DPQ) (Ln3+=La3+, Gd3+, Sm3+, Pr3+; x=0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9) were synthesized by the reaction of RECl3·6H2O with HNPPD and DPQ in stoichiometry. The complexes were characterized with IR, elemental analysis, TGA-DSC and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. The UV-Vis absorption spectra and fluorescence properties of the complexes were also investigated. The experimental results showed that the luminescence efficiency of Eu3+ complexes was enhanced by doping some other lanthanide ions. Eu0.7La0.3(NPPD)3·(DPQ) showed the highest luminescence efficiency.

Physico-chemical properties of 3-methoxy-2-nitrobenzoates of some rare earth elements（Ⅲ）

The complexes of 3-methoxy-2-nitrobenzoates of Pr(III), Nd(III), Sm(III), Eu(III), Gd(III), Tb(III), Er(III) and Tm(III) with the formula: Ln(C8H6NO5)3·2H2O, where Ln=lanthanides(III), were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, Forier transform irtrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, magnetic and thermogravimetric studies and also by X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. The complexes had col- ours typical for Ln(III) ions. The carboxylate groups bound as bidentate chelating. On heating to 1173 K in air they decomposed in the same way, at first, dehydrated in one step to anhydrous salts, and then decomposed to the oxides of respective metals with intermediate formation of the oxycarbonates. The enthalpy values of the dehydration process changed from 133.72 to 44.50 kJ/mol. Their solubility in water at 293 K was of the order of 10-4 mol/dm3. The magnetic moments of analysed complexes were determined by Gouy’s method in the range of 76-303 K.     

Crystal Structure and Luminescence Property of Lanthanide Complexes with 2-Fluorobenzoic Acid and 2,2''-Bipyridine

The two compounds of [Ln(2-FBA)3·2,2'-bpy]2 (2-FBA=2-fluorobenzoato, 2,2'-bpy=2,2'-bipyridine, Ln=Eu(1), Dy(2)) were synthesized and their structures were determined by X-ray diffraction method. Crystallized complexes 1 and 2 are isomorphous, monoclinic system with P21/n space group. The two complexes are binuclear molecule with an inversion center. The two lanthanide ions are linked by four bridged 2-FBA ligands and each lanthanide ion is further bonded to one chelated bidentate 2-FBA ligand and one 2,2'-bipyridine molecule. The coordination number of metal ion is eight. The europium complex exhibits strong red fluorescence. 5D0→7Fj (j= 1～4) transition emission of Eu3 ion was observed.     

A series of 3D lanthanide complexes based on H bond and halogen-halogen interactions:Synthesis,structure, spectroscopic and thermal properties

Four lanthanide coordination complexes, namely, [Ln(2,3-DClBA)_3(5,5'-dmebipy)(H_2O)]_2(Ln=Sm(1), Eu(2), Dy(3), Ho(4)); 2,3-DClBA=2,3-dichlorobenzoate; 5,5'-dmebipy=5,5'-dmethylbipyridine) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Findings indicated that complex 3 was a dinuclear molecule, and the center Dy~(3+) was eight-coordinated. Each dinuclear units could be connected by H bond and halogen-halogen interactions. Luminescent property of complex 2 suggested the typical intense emissions of Eu~(3+) ions. Thermal analysis showed that the complexes decomposed in three steps: the coordination water was lost firstly then the neutral ligand 5,5'dmebipy was lost and lastly the 2,3-DClBA ligand was lost.

Both complexes contained paddle-wheel building blocks, formed by bpdc and phen ligands. These paddle-wheel secondary building units （SBUs） were further connected to form two-dimensional （2-D） metal organic framework （MOF） networks by 2,2＇-bipyridine-3, and 3＇-dicarboxylate tinkers. A three-dimensional （3-D） supramolecular structure was formed by π-π aromatic interactions between adjacent 2-D infinite networks. Photoluminescent measurements indicated that europium compound 2 and terbium compound 3 were strong, red and green emitters, respectively.

Synthesis,characterization, biological activities and luminescent properties of lanthanide complexes with [2-thiophenecarboxylic acid, 2-(2-pyridinylmethylene)hydrazide] Schiff bases ligand

A Schiff base L [2-thiophenecarboxylic acid, 2-(2-pyridinylmethylene)hydrazide] with its lanthanide metal complexes was synthesized. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductivity measurements, spectral analysis(NMR, FT-IR, and UV-Vis), luminescence and thermal gravimetric analysis. The Schiff base ligand was a tridentate chelate and coordinates to the central lanthanide ion with 1:2 metal:ligand ratio. The conductivity data showed a 1:1 electrolytic nature with a general formula [LnL_2(NO_3)_2]NO_3. The luminescence emission properties for Sm, Tb, and Eu complexes were observed and showed that the ligand L could absorb and transfer energy to Sm(III), Tb(III) and Eu(III) ions. The complexes possessed a good antibacterial activity against different bacterial strains. In addition, the scavenging activity of the Ln(III) complexes on DPPH was concentration dependant and the complexes were significantly more efficient in quenching DPPH than the free Schiff base ligand.     

Optical analysis and separation of trivalent lanthanides in deep eutectic solvents

Deep eutectic solvents(DESs) were used for luminescence measurements in quantitative analysis of trivalent lanthanide ions and as solvents for light rare earth elements(LREE) in solid-liquid separation.The spectroscopic characteristics of lanthanide chlorides LnCl_3(Ln=Eu,Tb),respectively their aquo complexes,are described in a comprehensive study that demonstrates the significant enhancement of the phosphorescence emission intensity in DESs as polar and weakly coordinating solvent.Several DESs stabilize the lanthanide ion luminescence against changes in temperature and moisture,which is advantageous compared with the use of ionic liquids.Small amounts of water lead in certain eutectic systems even to a further increase in phosphorescence emission intensity.By investigating the solubility of lanthanide sesquioxides Ln_2 O_3(Ln=La,Nd,Sm,Eu,Gd,Tb,Dy) in DESs,selectivities are identified that may be of use for the separation of LREE.

Synthesis and spectral characteristics of La2MoO6：Ln3＋ （Ln=Eu, Sm, Dy, Pr, Tb） polycrystals

The novel phosphors of La 2 MoO 6 activated with the trivalent rare earth Ln 3+ (Ln=Eu, Sm, Dy, Pr, Tb) ions were synthesized by solid state reactions at high temperature in air atmosphere, and their phase impurities and luminescent properties were studied. The photoluminescence (PL) excitation and emission spectra, and decay curves were employed to study their luminescence properties. The lifetimes of the characteristic emissions from Ln 3+ ions were in the order of millisecond except Pr 3+ ions. (LaEu 1-x ) 2 MoO 6 was a promising phosphor for practical application and the optimum concentration was x=0.075. The concentration quenching mechanism of Eu 3+ was also discussed by theoretical fitting using Burshtein model.
