Lanthanide b-diketones and their derivatives are extensively studied coordination compounds, due to their luminescent properties and many possible applications. The tetrakisNd(III) complex with phosphorylated sulfonylamides derivatives of b-diketones was synthesized. The X-ray diffraction showed that the compound of formula {[Na[Ln(SP) 4 ]} n (SP = C 6 H 5 S(O)2NP(O)(OCH 3 ) 2 ; Ln = Nd(III) crystallize in the monoclinic P2 1 /c space group with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 22.006(4)A, b = 11.075(2)A, c = 22.334(5)A, and b = 118.71(3)°. The molecular structure of the investigated compound is polymeric. The lanthanide ions as well as the sodium ions are coordinated by sulfonyl and phosphoryl groups of the ligand, and because of the bridging behavior, link different units of the polymer. High-resolution absorption, emission, and excitation spectra of neodymium crystals were measured at 298, 77, and 4K temperatures.The sensitized emission of [Na[Nd(III)(L) 4 ]} n chelate in the IR range of the spectrum was recorded. This kind of the compounds can be used in organic light emitting diodes in compact display technology. The spectral characteristic of the compound is controlled by donor-acceptor properties and electron-hole transporting chemical groups. Those factors affect the energy level location, energy transfer (ET), electron-phonon coupling, and finally the luminescence quantum yield. The optical behavior of the title compound was characterised by crystal field (CF), correlation crystal field (CCF), and electron transition probability calculations. X-ray structural data and the nephelauxetic effect check the role of the character of the bonding. The IR spectra were used to analyze the vibronic components in electronic transitions. The role of ligands, singlet and triplet states in energy transfer, are discussed. The ET mechanism and emission quenching pathways are proposed. Some spectroscopic parameters will be compared with earlier reported NaNdWo 4 9 H 2 O (Wo = CCl 3 CONPO(OCH 3 ) 2 ).
