Abstract
Three dinuclear lanthanide(iii) complexes with an acetate bridge, which are synthesised by a Salen-type Schiff base and β-diketonate ligands, i.e. [Ln2L2(TTA)4(OAc)2]·CH2Cl2 (Ln = Eu (1), Gd (2), Dy (3); TTA = thenoyltrifluoroacetonate, H2L = N,N′-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine), are investigated. We obtained the structures of complexes 1–3 by X-ray crystallography. Notably, in terms of the structure of these complexes, what is intriguing is that the acetate groups link two Lniii ions, whereas the cadmium ions do not coordinate. Lanthanide-based luminescence is exhibited by complex 1, which exists in both the solid state and a methanol solution. Through magnetic analysis, it is found that a field-induced single-molecule magnet behaviour is exhibited by complex 3, and the energy barrier is shown to be Ueff = 45.97 K.
