Abstract:Amino acid lanthanide complexes are a promising class of environmentally friendly and non-toxic optical organic materials that find extensive applications in biomedicine, molecular probes, and optical devices. In this study, three amino acid lanthanide complexes, octanoyl glycine gadolinium (Gd(oct-ala)3×H2O), octanoyl serine gadolinium (Gd(oct-ser)3×H2O), and octanoyl phenylalanine gadolinium (Gd(oct-phe)3×H2O), were synthesized by reacting octanoyl amino acid ligands with gadolinium chloride. The coordinatio… Show more
