Aluminium 8-Hydroxyquinolinate N-Oxide as a Precursor to Heterometallic Aluminium-Lanthanide Complexes.

ABSTRACT: A reaction in anhydrous toluene between the formally unsaturated fragment [Ln(hfac)₃] (Ln³⁺ = Eu³⁺, Gd³⁺ and Er³⁺; Hhfac = hexafluoroacetylacetone) and [Al(qNO)₃] (HqNO = 8-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide), here prepared for the first time from [Al(O^tBu)₃] and HqNO, affords the dinuclear heterometallic compounds [Ln(hfac)₃Al(qNO)₃] (Ln³⁺ = Eu³⁺, Gd³⁺ and Er³⁺) in high yields. The molecular structures of these new compounds revealed a dinuclear species with three phenolic oxygen atoms bridging the two metal atoms. While the europium and gadolinium complexes show the coordination number (CN) 9 for the lanthanide centre, in the complex featu
