Hydrothermal Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Luminescent Properties of Three Organic‐Lanthanide Complexes with 3‐Hydroxycinnamic Acid

Three new homodinuclear lanthanide(III) complexes [Ln₂(L)₆(2,2′‐bipy)₂] [Ln = Tb^III ( 1 ), Sm^III ( 2 ), Eu^III ( 3 ); HL = 3‐hydroxycinnamic acid (3‐HCA); 2,2′‐bipy = 2,2′‐bipyridine] were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analyses, and X‐ray diffraction techniques. Complexes 1 – 3 crystallize in triclinic system, space group P$\bar{1}$ . In all complexes the lanthanide ions are nine‐coordinate by two nitrogen atoms from the 2,2′‐bipy ligand and seven oxygen atoms from one chelating L ligands and four bridging L ligands, forming distorted tricapped trigonal prismatic arrangements. The lanthanide(III) ions are intramolecularly bridged by eight carboxylate oxygen atoms forming dimeric complexes with Ln ··· Ln distances of 3.92747(15), 3.9664(6), and 3.9415(4) Å for complexes 1 – 3 , respectively. The luminescent properties in the solid state of HL ligand and Eu^III complex are also discussed.     

Two Isostructural Layered Lanthanide(III) Complexes: Syntheses,Structures, Magnetic and Luminescent Properties

Two N'-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)pyridine N-oxide-carbohydrazide (H₃L)-based coordination complexes with the formula [Ln₂(DMF)₂(OAc)₂(HL)₂]_n (Ln = Dy for 1 and Eu for 2 ) were solvothermally synthesized. Crystal structures, thermal stabilities, magnetic and luminescent properties of the two complexes were fully investigated. Both complexes are isomorphic two-dimensional layers with centrosymmetric {Ln₂} subunits extended by doubly deprotonated HL^2– connectors. Complex 1 with highly anisotropic Dy^III spin exhibits slightly frequency-dependent magnetic relaxations under zero dc field with an effective energy barrier of ca. 6.84 K. Eu^III-based complex 2 displays only one weak fluorescent emission around 532 nm with the absence of characteristic emission of Eu^III ion. These results provide helpful hints of the hydrazide Schiff-functionalized organic ligands on the function modulations of the resulting Ln complexes.     

Three Phenoxo‐Bridged Dinuclear Lanthanide Complexes: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Magnetic Properties

Three dinuclear lanthanide complexes [Ln₂(H₂L)₂(NO₃)₄] [Ln = Dy ( 1 ), Tb ( 2 ), and Gd ( 3 )] [H₃L = 2‐hydroxyimino‐N′‐[(2‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxyphenyl)methylidene]‐propanohydrazone] were solvothermally synthesized by varying differently anisotropic rare earth ions. Single‐crystal structural analyses demonstrate that all the three complexes are crystallographically isostructural with two centrosymmetric Ln^III ions aggregated by a pair of monodeprotonated H₂L^– anions. Weak intramolecular antiferromagnetic interactions with different strength were mediated by a pair of phenoxo bridges due to superexchange and/or single‐ion anisotropy. Additionally, the Dy^III‐based entity shows the strongest anisotropy exhibits field‐induced single‐molecule magnetic behavior with two thermally activated relaxation processes. In contrast, 3 with isotropic Gd^III ion has a significant cryogenic magnetocaloric effect with the maximum entropy change of 25.7 J · kg^–1 · K^–1 at 2.0 K and 70.0 kOe.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structures,and Photoluminescence of Lanthanide Coordination Polymers with 4‐Acetamidobenzoate

The reactions of Ln(NO₃)₃ · 6H₂O and 4‐acetamidobenzoic acid (Haba) with 4,4′‐bipyridine (4,4′‐bpy) in ethanol solution resulted in three new lanthanide coordination polymers, namely {[Ln(aba)₃(H₂O)₂] · 0.5(4,4′‐bpy) · 2H₂O}_∞ [Ln = Sm ( 1 ), Gd ( 2 ), and Er ( 3 ), aba = 4‐acetamidobenzoate]. Compounds 1 – 3 are isomorphous and have one‐dimensional chains bridged by four aba anions. 4,4′‐Bipyridine molecules don’t take part in the coordination with Ln^III ions and occur in the lattice as guest molecules. Moreover, the adjacent 1D chains in the complex are further linked through numerous N–H ··· O and O–H ··· O hydrogen bonds to form a 3D supramolecular network. In addition, complex 1 in the solid state shows characteristic emission in the visible region at room temperature.     

Synthesis,Structures, and Luminescent Properties of Lanthanide Complexes with Triphenylphospine Oxide

Seven lanthanide complexes [Ln(OPPh₃)₃(NO₃)₃] ( 1 – 3 ) (OPPh₃ = triphenylphosphine oxide, Ln = Nd, Sm, Gd), [Dy(OPPh₃)₄(NO₃)₂](NO₃) ( 4 ), [Ln(OPPh₃)₃(NO₃)₃]₂ ( 5 – 7 ) (Ln = Pr, Eu, Gd) were synthesized by the reactions of different lanthanide salts and OPPh₃ ligand in the air. These complexes were characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, IR and fluorescence spectra. Structure analysis shows that complexes 1 – 4 are mononuclear complexes formed by OPPh₃ ligands and nitrates. The asymmetric units of complexes 5 – 7 consist of two crystallographic‐separate molecules. Complex 1 is self‐assembled to construct a 2D layer‐structure of (4,4) net topology by hydrogen bond interactions. The other complexes show a 1D chain‐like structure that was assembled by OPPh₃ ligands and nitrate ions through C–H ··· O interactions. Solid emission spectra of compounds 4 and 6 are assigned to the characteristic fluorescence of Tb³⁺ (λ_em = 480, 574 nm) and Eu³⁺ (λ_em = 552, 593, 619, 668 nm).     

N,N′‐Bis(Salicylidene)‐1,2‐Cyclohexanediamine Lanthanide(III) Coordination Polymers: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Luminescence Properties

The salen‐type ligand H₂L [H₂L = N,N′‐bis(salicylidene)‐1,2‐cyclohexanediamine] was utilized for the synthesis of two lanthanide(III) coordination polymers [LnH₂L(NO₃)₃MeOH]_n [Ln = Eu ( 1 ) and Ln = Lu ( 2 )]. The single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses of 1 and 2 revealed that they are isomorphous and exhibit one‐dimension neutral structure, in which H₂L effectively functions as a bridging ligand and give rise to a chain‐like polymer. The luminescent properties of polymers in solid state and in solution were investigated and 1 exhibits typical red luminescence of Eu^III ions in solid state and dichloromethane solution and 2 emits the ligand‐centered blue luminescence. The energy transfer mechanisms in these luminescent lanthanide polymers were described through calculation of the lowest triplet level of ligand H₂L.     

Synthesis,Structures, and Properties of Lanthanide Complexes with Pyrimidine‐2‐carboxylic Acid

Six lanthanide complexes [Ln(pmc)₂NO₃]_n [Hpmc = pyrimidine‐2‐carboxylic acid, Ln = La ( 1 ), Pr ( 2 )], [Ln(pmc)₂(H₂O)₃]NO₃ · H₂O [Ln = Eu ( 3 ), Tb ( 4 ) Dy ( 5 ), Er ( 6 )] were synthesized by the reactions of lanthanide nitrate and pyrimidine‐2‐carboxylic acid in water at room temperature. These complexes were characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, IR, circular dichroism (CD) and fluorescence spectra. Structure analysis shows that complexes 1 and 2 are isostructural with P4₃2₁2 space group, whereas isostructural complexes 3 – 6 belong to the P2₁/c space group. In complexes 1 and 2 , the central metal atoms are coordinated by nitrates and pmc^–, which are self‐assembled to construct a 3D porous network with 6₂.6₂.6₂.6₂.6₂.6₂ (6⁶) topology. In complexes 3 – 6 , H₂O and pmc^– ligands are coordinated and the complexes exhibit a one‐dimensional zigzag chain, which is further expanded into a 3D structure by hydrogen bonding. In addition, the circular dichroism of 1 and 2 proves that the two complexes are both chiral with achiral ligand of Hpmc. Luminescent measurements of compounds 3 – 5 indicate that the characteristic fluorescence of Eu³⁺, Tb³⁺, and Dy³⁺ are observed.     

Syntheses,Structures, and Photoluminescence of Lanthanide Coordination Polymers Based on 4‐Oxo‐1,4‐dihydro‐2,6‐pyridinedicarboxylic acid

Investigating the coordination chemistry of H₂CDA (4‐oxo‐1,4‐dihydro‐2,6‐pyridinedicarboxylic acid) with rare earth salts Ln(NO₃)₃ under hydrothermal conditions, structure transformation phenomenon was observed. The ligand, H₂CDA charged to its position isomer, enol type structure, H₃CAM (4‐hydroxypyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxylic acid). Six new lanthanide(III) coordination polymers with the formulas [Ln(CAM)(H₂O)₃]_n [Ln = La ( 1 ), Pr, ( 2 )] and {[Ln(CAM)(H₂O)₃] · H₂O}_n [Ln = Nd, ( 3 ), Sm, ( 4 ), Eu, ( 5 ), Y, ( 6 )] were synthesized and characterized. The X‐ray structure analyses show two kinds of coordination structures. The complexes 1 and 2 and 3 – 6 are isostructural. Complexes 1 and 2 crystallize in the monoclinic C₂/c space group, whereas 3 – 6 crystallize in the monoclinic system with space group P2₁/n. In the two kinds of structures, H₃CAM displays two different coordination modes. The Sm^III and Eu^III complexes exhibit the corresponding characteristic luminescence in the visible region at an excitation of 376 nm.     

4,5‐Dichlorophthalate‐Extended Lanthanide Coordination Polymers with Layer and Ribbon Motifs: Synthesis,Structure, and Luminescence

Five new 4,5‐dichlorophthalate (dcpa)‐extended lanthanide coordination polymers (CPs) with formulas [Ln₂(H₂O)(dcpa)₃]_n (Ln = Tb for 1 , Sm for 2 , Pr for 3 , and Nd for 4 ) and [Yb(H₂O)₂(dcpa)(Hdcpa)]_n ( 5 ) were solvothermally synthesized. Structural determinations demonstrate that CPs 1 – 4 are crystallographically isostructural, exhibiting an infinite two‐dimensional layer with dimeric {Ln₂(COO)₃} subunits extended by aromatic skeleton of fully deprotonated dcpa^2– connectors. In contrast, complex 5 features a one‐dimensional broad ribbon with centrosymmetric {Yb₂(COO)₂} subunits propagated by pairs of ditopic dcpa^2– ligands. Interestingly, the anionic dcpa^2– connector can serve as a good antenna ligand to sensitize the characteristic emissions of the different Ln^III ions in both the ultraviolet (for 1 – 3 ) and near‐infrared (for 4 and 5 ) regions.     

Syntheses,Structures, Magnetic Properties,and NIR Emission Properties of a Series of Novel 1, 2, 4, 5‐Cyclohexanetetracarboxylate‐bridged Lanthanide Complexes with 3D Framework Structures

Solvothermal combination of trivalent lanthanide metal precursors with 1, 2, 4, 5‐cyclohexanetetracarboxylic acid (L) ligand has afforded the preparation of a family of eight new coordination polymers [Ln₄(L)₃(H₂O)₁₀] · 7H₂O (Ln = Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb) ( 1 – 8 ). Structural analyses reveal that the 1, 2, 4, 5‐cyclohexanetetracarboxylic acid ligand with e,a,a,e (L^I) conformation displays a μ₄‐(κ³O, O, O⁵)(κ²O²,O²)(κ²O⁴,O⁴)‐bridging mode to generate 3D frameworks of complexes 1 – 8 and the α‐Po topology with the short Schläfli symbol {4¹².6³} could be observed in complexes 1 – 8 . The near‐infrared luminescence properties were studied, and the results have shown that the Ho^III, Er^III, and Yb^III complexes emit typical near‐infrared luminescence in the solid‐state. Variable‐temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of complexes 2 – 7 have shown that complex 2 (Gd) shows the ferromagnetic coupling between magnetic centers, whereas the complexes 3 – 7 show the antiferromagnetic coupling between magnetic centers. Additionally, the thermogravimetric analyses were discussed.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Luminescent Properties of Three Inorganic‐Organic Hybrid Frameworks Constructed from 4,5‐Imidazoledicarboxylate

Three inorganic‐organic hybrid frameworks [Mn(HIMDC)(4,4′‐bipyo)_0.5(H₂O)]_n (1) , [Cd(H₂IMDC)₂(2,2′‐bipyo)] (2) and [Ca(HIMDC)(H₂O)₂·H₂O]_n (3) (H₃IMDC = 4,5‐imidazoledicarboxylate; 4,4′‐bipyo = 4,4′‐bipyridine‐N,N′‐dioxide; 2,2′‐bipyo= 2,2′‐bipyridine‐N,N′‐dioxide) have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by the elemental analyses, IR spectra, TG analysis and the single crystal diffraction. Both compounds 1 and 3 exhibit 2D layers while 2 is a monomer. It is noteworthy that compound 2 exhibits strong fluorescent emission in the solid state at room temperature.     

Solvothermal Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Luminescent Properties of Three Heterometallic Lanthanide‐Transition‐Metal Frameworks Constructed from Three Types of CuBr Motifs

Three three‐dimensional (3D) heterometallic lanthanide‐transition‐metal (hetero‐Ln‐TM) compounds with the formula [Ln₆(Cu₄Br₃)(Cu₂Br₂)₂(Cu₂Br)(IN)₂₀(H₂O)₁₂] · 2H₂O [Ln = Gd ( 1 ), Ln = Sm ( 2 ), Ln = Eu ( 3 )] based on the linkages of one‐dimensional Ln organic chain and Cu_mBr_n units were synthesized by mixing Ln₂O₃ with isonicotinic acid (HIN = pyridine‐4‐carboxylic acid) under hydrothermal condition. During the synthesis, two ligands were used: the isonicotinate (IN^–) stabilizes the cluster and links the one‐dimensional Ln organic chains and Cu_mBr_n motif, whereas Br^– anions play a very important role in the formation of the distinct Cu_mBr_n units. It is interesting that there are three different Cu‐Br motifs: a closed four‐membered ring [Cu₂Br₂] subunit, a linear [Cu₂Br] subunit, an S‐sharp [Cu₄Br₃] subunit. Strong fluorescence of compounds 2 and 3 suggests an efficient energy transfer from the ligand to Eu³⁺ ions. The luminescent investigation indicates that 2 and 3 are excellent candidates for fluorescent materials.     

Two Manganese(II) Complexes with a Bulky Fluorene‐Based Carboxylate Ligand: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Luminescent Properties

To explore the coordination possibilities of fluorene‐based ligands, two manganese(II) complexes with the ligand 9,9‐dibutyl‐9H‐fluorene‐2,7‐carboxylate ( L ) were synthesized and characterized: [Mn₂( L )₂(DMF)₃]_∞ ( 1 ) and [Mn₂( L )₂(DMF)]_∞ ( 2 ). X‐ray single‐crystal diffraction analyses show that complex 1 has a two‐dimensional (2D) (4,4) structure, whereas complex 2 consits of a three‐dimensional (3D) (4,5)‐connected topology framework. The results indicate that the steric bulk of the fluorene ring in H₂ L plays an important role in the formations of 1 and 2 . Additional pyridine‐based ligands govern the formation of the final frameworks of 2 . Moreover, the luminescent properties of these complexes were briefly investigated.     

Triphenylarsane Oxide Complexes of Lanthanide Nitrates: Polymorphs and Photophysics

trans‐[Ln(NO₃)₂(Ph₃AsO)₄](NO₃)₂ ( 1 ) and mer‐[Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃AsO)₃] ( 2 ) complexes were prepared from Ln(NO₃)₃ · xH₂O and Ph₃AsO in chloroform (Ln = Y, Sm, Eu, Tb, and Dy). Production of complexes 1 vs. 2 and solvent content was found to be highly dependent on crystallization solvent choice. Tb and Eu produced only 1 , while the other Ln metals produced both 1 and 2 . Solvent‐free, acetone‐, and methanol‐containing polymorph series were identified for complexes 1 . Acetone/ether‐ and CH₂Cl₂‐containing polymorph series were identified for complexes 2 . Luminescence measurements were performed on solvent‐free 1 (Ln = Y, Eu, Tb, and Dy) and 2 (Ln = Sm) at 78 K. Sensitized lanthanide emission bands via resonance energy transfer were observed in all cases, except the control (Ln = Y). The efficiency of this energy transfer process varies amongst the lanthanide metals studied and was rationalized using Latva's empirical rule and Density Functional Theory calculations.     

Triphenylphosphane Oxide Complexes of Lanthanide Nitrates: Polymorphs and Photophysics

A series of mer‐[Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃PO)₃] complexes were prepared from Ln(NO₃)₃ · xH₂O and Ph₃PO in chloroform (Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, and Er). The La and Nd complexes were 0.25 CHCl₃ solvates, whereas the others were solvent‐free. The identical reaction using Yb(NO₃)₃ · xH₂O produced the unique salt trans‐[Yb(NO₃)₂(Ph₃PO)₄][Yb(NO₃)₄(Ph₃PO)] · Et₂O. All nitrate ions in all complexes are η²‐chelating. A comparison of the various [Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃PO)₃] structures, including those in the literature, reveals at least four common polymorphs, each of which is represented by isomorphic structures of multiple Ln ions. Luminescence of mer‐[Ln(NO₃)₃(Ph₃PO)₃] (Ln = Y, La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, and Dy), trans‐[Yb(NO₃)₂(Ph₃PO)₄][Yb(NO₃)₄(Ph₃PO)] and Ph₃PO assignments are reported. Latva's empirical rule allows for the antenna effect, in which energy is transferred from the triplet state of the Ph₃PO ligand, to occur only for Tb³⁺. Excitation via Ph₃PO results in strong green luminescence for Tb³⁺ having twice the intensity as that which results from direct excitation of the f‐f transitions.     

Cadmium(II) Complexes with Mixed cis‐Epoxysuccinate and 2,2′‐Bipyridyl‐Like Ligands: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Luminescent Properties

Two new Cd^II complexes, [Cd( ces )(phen)]_∞ ( 1 ) and {[Cd( ces )(bpy)(H₂O)](H₂O)}₂ ( 2 ), were prepared by slow solvent evaporation methods from mixtures of cis‐epoxysuccinic acid and Cd(ClO₄)₂ · 6H₂O in the presence of phen or bpy co‐ligand ( ces = cis‐epoxysuccinate, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline, and bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine). Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses show that complex 1 has a one‐dimensional (1D) helical chain that is further assembled into a two‐dimensional (2D) sheet, and then an overall three‐dimensional (3D) network by the interchain C–H ··· O hydrogen bonds. Complex 2 features a dinuclear structure, which is further interlinked into a 3D supramolecular network by the co‐effects of intermolecular C–H ··· O and C–H ··· π hydrogen bonds as well as π ··· π stacking interactions. The structural differences between 1 and 2 are attributable to the intervention of different 2,2′‐bipyridyl‐like co‐ligands. Moreover, 1 and 2 exhibit intense solid‐state luminescence at room temperature, which mainly originates from the intraligand π→π* transitions of aromatic co‐ligands.     

Cadmium(II) Complexes with a Bulky Anthracene‐based Carboxylate Ligand: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Luminescent Properties

To explore the coordination possibilities of anthracene‐based ligands, three cadmium(ιι) complexes with anthracene‐9‐carboxylate ( L ) and relevant auxiliary chelating or bridging ligands were synthesized and characterized: Cd₂( L )₄(2bpy)₂(μ‐H₂O) ( 1 ), Cd₂( L )₄(phen)₂(μ‐H₂O) ( 2 ), and {[Cd₃( L )₆(4bpy)]}_∞ ( 3 ) (2bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline, and 4bpy = 4,4′‐bipyridine). Structural analyses show that complexes 1 and 2 both take dinuclear structures by incorporating the chelating 2bpy or phen ligand, which are further interlinked by intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding, π ··· π stacking, and/or C–H ··· π supramolecular interactions to generate higher‐dimensional supramolecular frameworks. Complex 3 has a one‐dimensional (1D) ribbon‐like structure, which is further assembled into a two‐dimensional (2D) layer, and a three‐dimensional (3D) framework by the co‐effects of interchain C–H ··· O hydrogen‐bonding and C–H ··· π supramolecular interactions. Moreover, the luminescent properties of these complexes were further investigated in detail.     

Lanthanide Complexes with 2,3‐Dimethoxybenzoic Acid and Terpyridine: Crystal Structures,Thermal Properties,and Antibacterial Activities

The lanthanide coordination complexes Er(2,3‐DMOBA)₃(terpy)(H₂O) ( 1 ) and [Nd(2,3‐DMOBA)₃(terpy)(H₂O)]₂ ( 2 ) (2,3‐DMOBA = 2,3‐dimethoxybenzoate; terpy = 2,2′:6′,2′′‐terpyridine) were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD), single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis. Complex 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, and the mononuclear subunits form a 1D chain structure along the a axis by hydrogen bonds. Complex 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c, and the dinuclear subunits are further linked via the offset face‐to‐face π ··· π weak stacking interactions to form a supramolecular 2D layered structure. Thermal analysis showed that the complexes have three decomposition steps. The first step is the loss of coordination water molecules. The neutral terpy ligands and partial 2,3‐DMOBA ligands are lost in the second step. The remaining 2,3‐DMOBA ligands are lost in the third step. The 3D stacked plots for the FT‐IR spectra of the evolved gases are recorded and the gaseous products are identified by the typical IR spectra obtained at different temperatures from the 3D stacked plots. Meanwhile, the results of the antibacterial action tests show that 1 and 2 have better antibacterial activities to Candida albicans than to Escherichia coli or Staphylococcus aureus. In addition, complex 2 has better antibacterial action to Candida albicans than complex 1 .     

One‐dimensional Salen‐type Chain‐like Lanthanide(III) Coordination Polymers: Syntheses,Crystal Structures,and Fluorescence Properties

Four salen‐type lanthanide(III) coordination polymers [LnH₂L(NO₃)₃(MeOH)_x]_n [Ln = La ( 1 ), Ce ( 2 ), Sm ( 3 ), Gd ( 4 )] were prepared by reaction of Ln(NO₃)₃ · 6H₂O with H₂L [H₂L = N,N′‐bis(salicylidene)‐1,2‐cyclohexanediamine]. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis revealed that H₂L effectively functions as a bridging ligand forming a series of 1D chain‐like polymers. The solid‐state fluorescence spectra of polymers 1 and 2 emit single ligand‐centered green fluorescence, whereas 3 exhibits typical red fluorescence of Sm^III ions. The lowest triplet level of ligand H₂L was calculated on the basis of the phosphorescence spectrum of Gd^III complex 4 . The energy transfer mechanisms in the lanthanide polymers were described and discussed.

The syntheses and crystal structures of eight lanthanide complexes with formula [Ln(2,5‐DCB)_x(phen)_y] are reported, which are characterized via single‐crystal, powder X‐ray diffraction, elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, photoluminescence measurement, and DC/AC magnetic measurement. These eight complexes are isostructural, and possess a discrete dinuclear structure. The adjacent dinuclear molecules are linked by the hydrogen bonding interactions into a one‐dimensional (1D) supramolecular chain. The neighboring 1D chains are further extended into a two‐dimensional (2D) supramolecular layer by the π–π stacking interactions. The photoluminescent properties of complexes 1 (Nd^III), 2 (Sm^III), 3 (Eu^III), 5 (Tb^III), 6 (Dy^III), and 8 (Yb^III) were investigated. Magnetic investigations also reveal the presence of ferromagnetic interactions in complexes 4 (Gd^III), 6 (Dy^III), and 7 (Er^III). Additionally, complex 6 (Dy^III) demonstrates field‐induced slow magnetic relaxation behavior.
