Syntheses, crystal structure and photophysical properties of [Sm(dbm)₃(impy)] and [Tb(dbm)₃(impy)] and their hybrid films

Abstract

This paper reports the syntheses, crystal structure and photophysical properties of eight-coordinate complexes [Sm(dbm)₃(impy)] and [Tb(dbm)₃(impy)] (dbm is the anion of 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedione and impy is 2-(1<italic>H</italic>-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine).
