“…Furthermore, we have found that [Cd 24 Ln 8 (ligand) 12 (OAc) 48 ] analogues may also be isolated using similar long-chain Schiff base ligands with flexible carbon–carbon backbones containing different numbers of methylene units. 29 The UV-vis absorption of the free H 2 L displays bands at 223, 262 and 329 nm, which are red-shifted in 1 (Fig. S5†).…”

Luminescent Metal Complexes as Emerging Tools for Lipid Imaging

Fluorescence microscopy is a key tool in the biological sciences, which finds use as a routine laboratory technique (e.g., epifluorescence microscope) or more advanced confocal, two-photon, and super-resolution applications. Through continued developments in microscopy, and other analytical methods, the importance of lipids as constituents of subcellular organelles, signalling or regulating molecules continues to emerge. The increasing recognition of the importance of lipids to fundamental cell biology (in health and disease) has prompted the development of protocols and techniques to image the distribution of lipids in cells and tissues. A diverse suite of spectroscopic and microscopy tools are continuously being developed and explored to add to the “toolbox” to study lipid biology. A relatively recent breakthrough in this field has been the development and subsequent application of metal-based luminescent complexes for imaging lipids in biological systems. These metal-based compounds appear to offer advantages with respect to their tunability of the photophysical properties, in addition to capabilities centred around selectively targeting specific lipid structures or classes of lipids. The presence of the metal centre also opens the path to alternative imaging modalities that might not be applicable to traditional organic fluorophores. This review examines the current progress and developments in metal-based luminescent complexes to study lipids, in addition to exploring potential new avenues and challenges for the field to take.

“…In recent years lanthanide compounds are one of the research hotspots in material science and have gained more and more interest and, up to date, a large number of investigations have been carried out on the lanthanide compounds [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. This is mainly because of the following reasons that lanthanide compounds show wide applications in many fields such as sensors, lightemitting materials, magnetic materials, cell imaging, electroluminescent devices, luminescence probes, catalysts and so forth [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

A new lanthanide compound [Gd(2,5-HPA)(2,5-PA)]n (1; 2,5-H2PA = 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid) was obtained through hydrothermal reactions and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It possesses a three-dimensional (3-D) framework structure. Solid-state photoluminescence experiment revealed that it shows dark blue emission band, which can be assigned to the characteristic emission of the 4f electron intrashell transition of 6P7/2 → 8S7/2 (Gd3+). The energy transfer mechanism was explained by an energy level diagram of the gadolinium ion and 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid ligand. It displayed remarkable CIE chromaticity coordinates of 0.1346 and 0.0678. The solid-state UV/Vis diffuse reflectance spectra unveiled that it possesses a wide optical band gap of 3.52 eV. Thermogravimetry (TG) measurements revealed that this compound is highly thermal stable up to around 500 °C. KEY WORDS: CIE, Energy transfer, Lanthanide, Photoluminescence, Thermal stability Bull.
