Solution Phase Chemistry of Lanthanide Complexes. 12. 1:1 and 1:2 Lanthanide Complexes with s-Carboxymethoxysuccinic Acid

Abstract

The solution phase coordination chemistry associated with 1:1 and 1:2 complexes of lanthanide ions with S-carboxymethoxysuccinic acid (CMOS) has been studied by spectroscopic means. The Tb(III) luminescence intensities and lifetimes were found to be sensitive towards the solution phase properties, as were the circularly polarized luminescence spectra of these complexes. It was found that below pH 6, Ln(CMOS) complexes were monomeric in nature and contained an average of 6 molecules of coordinated water. Above neutral pH, the Ln(CMOS)₂ complexes became self-associated into hydroxy-bridged, oligomeric species. The Ln(CMOS)₂ complexes were found to be oligomeric at all pH values, with ligand bridging taking place below neutral pH and hydroxy bridging taking place above neutral pH.

Computational 1H NMR: Part 1. Theoretical background

This is the first one of the three closely interrelated reviews to be published in Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry dealing with accordingly theoretical background, chemical applications, and biochemical studies of and by means of computational ¹H NMR. Presented in the first part of the review is a general outline of the modern theoretical methods and accuracy factors of computational ¹H NMR involving locally dense basis set schemes, solvent effects, vibrational corrections, and relativistic effects performed at the density functional theory and/or nonempirical levels. This review is dedicated to Prof. Stephan Sauer in view of his invaluable contribution to the field of computational nuclear magnetic resonance.
