Abstract:Anionic ancillary ligands play a critical role in the construction of rare earth (RE) metal complexes due to the large influence on the stability of the molecule and engendering emergent electronic properties that are of interest in a plethora of applications. Supporting ligands comprising oxygen donor atoms are highly pursued in RE chemistry owing to the high oxophilicity innate to these ions. The scarcely employed bis(acyl)phosphide (BAP) ligands feature oxygen coordination sites and contain a phosphide back… Show more
