Abstract:We have previously reported the stability of europium oxalate compared to ammonium europium bis-salen and europium benzoate. We now extend the dicoarboxylic acid chain of the oxalate by introducing additional-CH 2 -groups in the dicarboxylate ligands by using malonate, succinate, glutarate and adipate. Additionally, we have examined the effect of alterations in the succinate dianion by introducing functional groups such as [C = C]in the case of the maleide and-OH group in the case of the malide. This study is … Show more
