RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Modifying the donor properties of tris(pyridyl)aluminates in lanthanide(II) sandwich compounds A1 García Rodríguez, Raúl A1 Kopf, Sara A1 Wright, Dominic Simon K1 Química organometálica K1 Química bioinorgánica K1 Organometallic chemistry K1 Bioinorganic chemistry AB The coordination ability of tris(pyridyl)aluminates can be modified by the steric and electronic character of substituents at the 6-positions of their pyridyl rings. Whereas [EtAl(6-Me-2-py)3]− (1) coordinates strongly to lanthanide(II) ions [Eu(II) and Yb(II)], [EtAl(6-Br-2-py)3]− (2) forms much weaker complexes, and [EtAl(6-CF3-2-py)3]− does not coordinate at all. The modification of the donor ability of these ligands is investigated by solid-state studies of the Ln(II) sandwich compounds and by competitive coordination studies in solution.
