Abstract:
One Yb42 nanowheel [Yb42L14(OH)28(OAc)84] was constructed using a tridentate vanillin ligand. The external diameter of the wheel-like structure is about 3.6 nm, which allows direct visualization by TEM. It shows interesting NIR lanthanide luminescence sensing towards anions, especially to fluoride at the ppm level.
