We report inelastic neutron-scattering measurements of crystal-field transitions in PrFeAsO, PrFeAsO0.87F0.13, and NdFeAsO0.85F0.15. Doping with fluorine produces additional crystal-field excitations, providing evidence that there are two distinct charge e ...
A facile synthesis of benzothiazole- and benzoxazole-substituted pyridine-2-carboxylic acids has been developed. These ligands form mononuclear nine-coordinate complexes [Ln(κ3-ligand)2(κ1-ligand)(H2O)2] with light and heavy trivalent lanthanides, as estab ...
An Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) study of glasses and magnetically dilute powders of [Gd(DTPA)(H2O)]2−, [Gd(DOTA)(H2O)]-, and macromolecular Gd-P792 complexes was carried out at X-, Q-band and 240 GHz DTPA=diethylenetriaminepentaacetato; DOTA=1,4,7 ...
The connection of three tridentate 2,6-bis(1-ethyl-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine binding units to an extended sulfurcontaining tripodal anchor in the ligand L9 yields nine-coordinate podates [Ln(L9)]3+ upon reaction with trivalent lanthanides, Ln(III). Struct ...
The coordination ability of the hexaphosphinoylated p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene B6bL6 toward actinides is established, as well as its good separation ability of the actinide ions UO22+ and Th(IV) over trivalent rare earths such as La(III), Eu(III) ...
The knowledge and understanding of the mechanism as well as the rate constant of the solvent exchange reactions are fundamental, since these reactions represent an important step in complex formation reactions on metal ions. Solvent exchange reactions in a ...
Phosphorescent composition comprises an alkaline earth metal silicate doped with europium fluoride and another lanthanide fluoride. Independent claims are also included for: (1) producing a composition as above by grinding a mixture of alkaline earth metal ...
