Rod MOFs are metal–organic frameworks in which the metal-containing secondary building
units consist of infinite rods of linked metal-centered polyhedra. For such materials, we …

Smart and careful design strategies need to be adopted for the synthesis of lanthanide–
organic framework materials to strike a balance between the high coordination requirement …

Providing vital knowledge on the design and synthesis of specific metal-organic framework
(MOF) classes as well as their properties, this ready reference summarizes the state of the …

We review some recent trends in an emerging field at the interface between classical
inorganic and organic materials. Hybrid inorganic–organic framework materials are …

Two ferromagnetic μ-oxoacetate-bridged gadolinium complexes [Gd2 (OAc) 2 (Ph2acac) 4
(MeOH) 2](1) and [Gd4 (OAc) 4 (acac) 8 (H2O) 4](2) and two polymeric Gd (III) chains [Gd …

Rare earth carboxylates constitute an enormous group of compounds with various structures
and properties. The carboxylate group may be bonded to the metal cations in several ways …

A series of one-dimensional complexes [Ln (L1) 3 (HOCH2CH2OH)] n (L1= 2-furoate anion;
Ln= Nd (1), Sm (2), Gd (3), Tb (4), Dy (5), Er (6)) have been synthesized. The complexes …

Reactions of lanthanide (III) nitrates with multi-donor carboxylate ligand in the presence of
