Lanthanide–surfactant-combined catalysts for the allylation of benzaldehyde with tetraallyltin in aqueous solutions

Monte Carlo simulation of thermophysical properties of binary Co–Gd liquid alloys

“…It is no doubt that, at higher temperatures, the molecules or atoms have more energy to move, which reduces the formation energy of new liquid surface. For the contri- bution of the alloy composition in the multi-element liquid system, it should be ascribed to the joint of the rare earth element, which could promote the liquid surfactant formation [34] caused by the structure change of the cluster in surface layer. Based on the simulated results, the surface tension of liquid Co-Gd alloys decreases with the increase of the Gd content, suggesting that the increase of Gd atom in the liquid makes clusters in the surface layer vary.…”

Properties, Characterizations and Applications of Organometallic Surfactants—A Review

“…Transitional metal containing materials are more commonly known and these are typically first or second raw transition metals (d-block elements of the periodic table) with other accounts involving the lanthanides. Most of the surfactants that fall under the transition metal category contain one or more of elements including Scandium (Sc) [7], Titanium (Ti) [8]- [10], Vanadium (V) [10] [11], Chromium (Cr) [9], Iron (Fe) [12] [13], Cobalt (Co) [14], Nickel (Ni) [15], Copper (Cu) [16], Zinc Zn [17], Yttrium (Y) [9], Zirconium (Zr) [8] [18] [19], Niobium (Nb) [20], Palladium (Pd) [15], Silver (Ag) [6], Lanthanum (La), Europium (Eu), Gadolinium (Gd), Ytterbium (Yb) [21], Hafnium (Hf) [8] and Osmium (Os) [22]. Similarly, there are a number of reports on non-transition metal-based organometallic surfactants.…”

“…It should be noted that some reactions can require the use of inert atmosphere such as those reported by Kim et al (2003) where a Palladium surfactant was produced from a surfactant precursor in a tioctylphosphine reagent [37]. In contrast to most reports where organic solvents were used, a cheap, safer and more environmentally friendly procedure exist where water can be used as the solvent [21].…”

A Case of Self‐Organization in Highly Emissive EuIII Ionic Liquids

“…[3,4] Many Eu III containing ionic liquids show an intense photoluminescence due to the 5 D 0 → 2 F J transitions (J = 0-6) from the 5 D 0 excited state to the J levels of the ground term 7 F J . A sharp decrease in the intensity of the 5 D 0 → 7 F 2 transition with increasing temperature is observed mainly in the liquid state, whilst temperature has only a mar-for [P 6,6,6,14 ][Eu(dbm) 4 ] (3). The luminescence quantum yields determined for 1, 2, and 3 are 34, 59 %, and 64 %, respectively.…”

“…Ln(fod) 3 is used as a Lewis acid catalyst in organic reactions and as a volatile precursor for chemical deposition. [6] Recently, a 4,4′-bis(1′′,1′′,1′′,2′′,2′′,3′′,3′′-heptafluoro-4′′,6′′hexanedione-6′′-yl)chlorosulfo-o-terphenyl-diketonate-Eu III complex was presented as an Eu-based fluorescent probe for the highly sensitive and selective time-gated luminescence detection of Cu II and sulfide ions in living cells. This probe was strongly fluorescent with a high quantum yield (57.6 %) and a long luminescence lifetime (0.81 ms).…”
