Coexistence of long-range antiferromagnetic order and slow relaxation of the magnetization in the first lanthanide complex of a 1,2,4-benzotriazinyl …

2017

The first lanthanide complex of a 1,2,4-benzotriazinyl radical (1), Dy(1)(tbacac)3 (2, tbacac = 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptane-dionato), was synthesised and found to have an antiferromagnetically ordered ground state with a metamagnetic phase diagram and a critical field of 0.91 T at 1.85 K. The application of a small dc field revealed the single-molecule magnet behaviour of 2, illustrating the coexistence of long-range antiferromagnetic order and slow relaxation of the magnetization. peerReviewed

Custom coordination environments for lanthanoids: tripodal ligands achieve near-perfect octahedral coordination for two dysprosium-based molecular na…

2017

Controlling the coordination sphere of lanthanoid complexes is a challenging critical step toward controlling their relaxation properties. Here we present the synthesis of hexacoordinated dysprosium single-molecule magnets, where tripodal ligands achieve a near-perfect octahedral coordination. We perform a complete experimental and theoretical investigation of their magnetic properties, including a full single-crystal magnetic anisotropy analysis. The combination of electrostatic and crystal-field computational tools (SIMPRE and CONDON codes) allows us to explain the static behavior of these systems in detail.

Coordinatively Unsaturated Lanthanide(III) Helicates: Luminescence Sensors for Adenosine Monophosphate in Aqueous Media

2016

Coordinatively unsaturated double-stranded helicates [(H2 L)2 Eu2 (NO3 )2 (H2 O)4 ](NO3 )4 , [(H2 L)2 Tb2 (H2 O)6 ](NO3 )6 , and [(H2 L)2 Tb2 (H2 O)6 ]Cl6 (H2 L=butanedioicacid-1,4-bis[2-(2-pyridinylmethylene)hydrazide]) are easily obtained by self-assembly from the ligand and the corresponding lanthanide(III) salts. The complexes are characterized by X-ray crystallography showing the helical arrangement of the ligands. Co-ligands at the metal ions can be easily substituted by appropriate anions. A specific luminescence response of AMP in presence of ADP, ATP, and other anions is observed. Specificity is assigned to the perfect size match of AMP to bridge the two metal centers and to replac…

Gas-phase hydrogenation of propionitrile on copper-lanthanide oxides

2009

Abstract The hydrogenation of propionitrile on copper-lanthanide oxide catalysts (2Cu·CeO 2 and 4Cu·Ln 2 O 3 (Ln = La, Pr, Nd)) was studied in the gas phase. The activity of the catalysts varies with the lanthanide in the order 2Cu·CeO 2  > 4Cu·Pr 2 O 3  > 4Cu·La 2 O 3  ≥ 4Cu·Nd 2 O 3 , while the activation energies varies in the opposite order, except for 2Cu·CeO 2 . The main product was the primary amine, n -propylamine. The formation of the unstable imine CH 3 CH 2 N CHCH 3 as a major product over 2Cu·CeO 2 seems to be consistent with the acidity of the catalyst. The catalysts were more selective than conventional copper impregnation catalysts, Cu (10 wt.%) on SiO 2 , La 2 O 3 or CeO 2 ,…

X-ray powder diffraction data for five lanthanoid chromates [Ln2(CrO4)3(H2O)5]·2H2O (Ln=La,Pr,Nd,Sm,Eu)

1994

X-ray powder diffraction data are reported for a series of isomorphous compounds of [Ln2(CrO4)3(H2O)5]·2H2O, where Ln=La, Pr, Nd, Sm, or Eu. The compounds crystallize in monoclinic space group P21/c (No: 14) with Z=4. Refined unit cell parameters and indexed powder diffraction patterns are given.

Fast volatilization of some lanthanide and actinide elements from titanium surfaces

1989

The ad- and desorption of trace quantities of the lanthanide elements lanthanum, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, dysprosium, and ytterbium and of the actinide elements americium and curium were investigated by thermochromatographic and isothermal measurements with hot titanium columns. The adsorption enthalpies deduced from the experimental data are in reasonable agreement with calculated values which indicate considerable variations in volatility under such conditions. More volatile elements can quickly be separated from less volatile elements by heating the mixture on titanium in high vacuum.

Production and Radiochemical Separation of the Auger Electron Emitter140Nd

2000

Among the Auger electron emitters, the radiolanthanide 140Nd has some unique nuclear properties with potential for endoradiotherapeutic applications. In the present study, 140Nd was produced via the 140Ce(3He,3n) nuclear process at the FZ Julich CV28 cyclotron, irradiating CeO2 with 3He particles of 36 MeV primary energy. Yields of about 5 MBq 140Nd per microAh were experimentally obtained. Batch yields of > 100 MBq 140Nd were reached. 140Nd was separated in 75 +/- 5% radiochemical yield using a two-step process, first by extracting the bulk of the target material according to a Ce(IV)/Nd(III) separation, then by final ion exchange purification.

New 3d–4f supramolecular systems constructed by [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]− and partially blocked lanthanide cations

2009

Abstract The reaction of acetonitrile (1–5) and mixed acetonitrile/water 1:1 (6–9) solutions containing the cyanide-bearing [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]− building block (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) and the partially blocked [Ln(bpym)]3+ cation (Ln = lanthanide trivalent cation and bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine) has afforded two new families of 3d–4f supramolecular assemblies of formula [Ln(bpym)(NO3)2(H2O)3][Fe(bipy)(CN)4] · H2O · CH3CN [Ln = Sm (1), Gd (2), Tb (3), Dy (4) and Ho (5)] and [Ln(bpym)(NO3)2(H2O)4][Fe(bipy)(CN)4] [Ln = Pr (6), Nd (7), Sm (8), Gd (9)]. They crystallize in the P21/c (1–5) and P2/c (6–9) space groups and their structures are made up of [Fe(bipy)(CN)4]− anions (1–9) and [Ln(bpym)(NO3)2(…

[Fe(phen)(CN)4]−: a suitable metalloligand unit to build 3d–4f heterobimetallic complexes with mixed bpym-cyano bridges (phen = 1,10-phenantroline, b…

2010

The synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new series of mixed 3d–4f complexes with the formula [{FeIII(phen)(CN)3(μ-CN)}4Ln2III(NO3)2(H2O)6(μ-bpym)]·nH2O [Ln = Eu (1), Gd (2), Dy (3) and Ho (4); n = 8 (1, 3 and 4) and 11 (2); phen = 1,10-phenantroline; bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine] are discussed here. Compounds 1–4 are centrosymmetric hexanuclear species whose structure is made up of two cyano-bridged {Fe2IIILnIII} heterobimetallic moieties which are connected through a bis-bidentate bpym molecule between the two rare-earth centers. The values of the iron–lanthanide distance across the single cyano-bridge are Fe(1)⋯Eu(1) = 5.5587(8) and Fe(2)⋯Eu(1) = 5.4908(8) A (1), Fe(1)⋯G…
