P. Starynowicz, STRUCTURE AND SPECTROSCOPY OF DIAQUA(MU(3)-ACETATO)(ACETATO-O)(ACETICACID-O)EUROPIUM(II), [EU(OAC)(2)(ACOH)(H2O)(2)], Polyhedron, 14(23-24), 1995, pp. 3573-3577
The crystal structure and absorption spectrum of the title compound ar
e presented. The crystals are isomorphic with those of the analogous s
trontium compound. The spectrum shows a shift of the f-d transitions t
owards longer wavelengths as compared with Eu-II halogenide systems.
