Dinuclear lanthanide(III)/zinc(II) complexes with methyl 2-pyridyl ketone oxime

Dalton Trans. 2015 Dec 14;44(46):19791-5. doi: 10.1039/c5dt03663a.

Abstract

The first use of methyl 2-pyridyl ketone oxime (mpkoH) in zinc(II)/lanthanide(III) chemistry leads to the [ZnLn(mpko)3(mpkoH)3](ClO4)2 and [ZnLn(NO3)2(mpko)3(mpkoH)] families of dinuclear Zn(II)Ln(III) complexes displaying blue-green, ligand-based photoluminescence; the Zn(II)Dy(III) compound shows field-induced relaxation of magnetization.
