C. Piguet et al., SELF-ASSEMBLY OF THE FIRST HETERODINUCLEAR-D-F TRIPLE-HELIX IN SOLUTION, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (4), 1995, pp. 491-493
The segmental bidentate-tridentate ligand L(2) reacts with Ln(III) and
Zn-II in acetonitrile to give the first self-assembled heterodinuclea
r d-f triple-helical complexes [LnZn(L(2))(3)](5+) (Ln = La, Eu), as d
etermined from solution-phase studies.
