Abstract:Chiral lanthanide clusters have promising applications in chiral recognition, magneto‐optical memories, and spintronic devices. Nonetheless, the precise prediction and controlled development of homochiral polynuclear Ln‐complexes is still a challenge. Herein, through multidentate chelate synthetic strategy, a new homochiral hexagadolinium phosphonate cluster designated as R/S‐[Gd6(pmhpH)8(NO3)2(H2O)8]·19H2O (R/S‐1) was successfully obtained by reacting chiral phosphonomethylhomoproline(pmhpH3) with Gd(III) sal… Show more
