Notes:
The crystal structures of the LaIII, EuIII, and TbIII complexes of macrobicyclic [bpy.bpy.bpy] ligands, [La3+ ⊂ 1]3 Cl- ( = 3-La), [Tb3+ ⊂ 1]3 Cl- ( = 3-Tb), and [Eu3+ ⊂ 2]3 C1- ( = 3-Eu), have been determined. They confirm the cryptate nature of these species, the cations being bound to the eight N-sites of the ligand. The macrobicycle presents two open faces, thus allowing additional coordination of two species, Cl- ions or H2O molecules, to the bound cations. These data provide structural support for the photophysical studies of the luminescent properties of the EuIII and TbIII cryptates, which indicated residual coordination of H2O molecules.
