Five novel Eu(III)-β-diketonate complexes containing ruthenocene ancillary ligands (1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphoryl)-ruthenocene�RcBPO) were synthesized and characterized. The coordination compounds presented the general formula [Eu(βdik) 3 (RcBPO)], where β-dik stands for 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonate (tta), 3-benzoyl-1,1,1-trifluoroacetone (btf), 2-dibenzoylmethanate (dbm), 2-acetyl-1,3-indandionate (aind), and 2-benzoyl-1,3-indandionate (bind), and RcBPO stands for 1,1′-bis-(diphenylphosphoryl)ruthenocene. The [Eu(aind) 3 (RcBPO)] complex crystallizes in a monoclinic Cc non-centrosymmetric space group with the europium site environment, assuming a bicapped trigonal prism coordination polyhedron with the symmetry point group close to C 2v . Photoluminescent properties for the solid-state samples were described in terms of excitation, emission, lifetime decay curves, and intrinsic and overall quantum yields. The replacement of the two coordinated H 2 O molecules by the RcBPO ancillary ligand leads to great enhancements of the overall quantum yields (Q Eu L ), with the minimum increment by a factor of 5 for the case of [Eu(btf) 3 (RcBPO)] and the maximum enhancement of 270 times for the case of the [Eu(dbm) 3 (RcBPO)] complex. In addition, theoretical calculations were carried out to model the spectroscopic properties of the investigated compounds. To obtain theoretical Judd−Ofelt parameters (Ω λ , λ = 2, 4, and 6) and intramolecular energy transfer rates, the JOYSpectra web platform was employed using the structure obtained from density functional theory calculations. Hence, a rate equation model provided theoretical overall quantum yields, which are in great agreement with measured data.
