ABSTRACT
Eight isostructural lanthanide coordination polymers [Ln(bptc)(phen)(H2O)]n (Ln = Dy for , Eu for , Tb for , Gd for , Sm for , Nd for , Yb for , Pr for ) were successfully prepared based on bridging asymmetric polycarboxylate ligand biphenyl-3,2',5'-tricarboxylic acid (H3bptc) and chelating 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) coligand. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals that complexes have a (3,6)-connected CdI2-type coordination network consisting of paddle-wheel dimers [Ln2(CO2)4]. The magnetic and fluorescent properties of have been investigated. Significantly, the Dy(iii) complex behaves with slow relaxation of the magnetization, where the frequency-dependent out-of-phase signals are noticed.
