Visible-light sensitisation of near-infrared luminescence from Yb(III), Nd(III) and Er(III) complexes of 3,6-bis(2-pyridyl)tetrazine

Reaction of the potentially bis-bidentate bridging ligand 3,6-bis(2-pyridyl)tetrazine (BPTZ) with various lanthanide complexes [Ln(tta)3(H2O)2] [Htta = thenoyl(trifluoro) acetone; Ln = La, Nd, Gd, Er, Yb] in aqueous ethanol afforded the mononuclear complexes [Ln(tta)3(BPTZ)] (Ln = La, Nd) or the din...
