Dinuclear triple stranded phenyl-spaced 1,3-bis-β-diketonato lanthanide(iii) complexes: synthesis, structures and spectroscopy

Abstract

The synthesis and crystal structures of a series of Ln(iii) complexes of a bis-β-diketone ligand (1,1′-(1,3-phenylene)bis(4,4-dimethylpentane-1,3-dione), H₂L1) is reported.
