A new 3D complex namely [Gd 4 (C 7 H 7 N 2 O 4) 6 (H 2 O) 12 ·Cl 6 ·9H 2 O (1) was solvothermally synthesized by using 1,3-bis (carboxymethyl) imidazolium cation as a ligand. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals that 3D positive charged framework was formed by Gd–O coordination bonds,and Gd3+ ions have two kinds of coordination environments. The free counter Cl− ions and lattice H 2 O locate in cavities of 1 through extensive H-bonds and electrostatic attractions between the Cl−/H 2 O and the positive framework. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) shows the organic framework decomposed at temperature above 345 °C, giving the final products Gd 2 O 3. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility displays antiferromagnetic interaction at temperature below 15.2 K, once above 15.2 K, compound 1 converts into paramagnetic interaction. The gadolinium-based MOF with 1, 3-bis(carboxymethyl)imidazolium Chloride ionic liquid as ligand has good thermal stability and magnetic property. There is Neel temperature at 15.2 K in compound 1 when study its magnetic, at temperature below 15.2 K there is antiferromagnetic interaction, but at temperature above 15.2 K, it converts into paramagnetic interaction.

A new lanthanide metal organic framework, namely [Eu(C 7 H 7 O 4 N 2)(H 2 O) 2 (Cl 0.38) 2 Cl 1.24 (1), was solvothermally synthesized using 1,3-bis(carboxymethyl)imidazolium chloride ([H 2 imdc]Cl) ionic liquid as a ligand. This compound was structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and its properties were analyzed spectroscopy and theoretical studies. In 1 , Eu (III) ions have only one coordination environment, and the ligands exhibit one coordination mode. The Eu3+ ions and ligands are connected to construct wavelike 2D cationic layers through coordination bonds, and then the 2D networks further interconnected through hydrogen bonds. The luminescent properties were studied at 77 K. The emission spectrum shows that there is one Eu3+ ion site in asymmetric unit, which is consistent with the results of the X-ray crystal structure analysis. Compound 1 exhibits characteristic emission bands of Eu3+ with emission lifetime of 0.336 ms. Single crystal of metal organic framework: [Eu(C 7 H 7 O 4 N 2)(H 2 O) 2 (Cl 0.38) 2 Cl 1.24 1 was solvothermally synthesized by 1,3-bis(carboxymethyl)imidazolium ionic liquid. The single crystal data indicate Eu3+ ions have only one nine-coordinate chemical environment, which is accordance with the results of the luminescence analysis of 1. FT-IR, PXRD, thermogravimetric analysis are also in accordance with the result of single crystal structure data. The time-resolved spectra further display that there is only one Eu3+ ion site in 1 and it has the lifelime of 0.336 ms. The thermal analysis results show the organic framework of 1 can sustain until 299 °C and completely decomposed into Eu 2 O 3 at about 589 °C.

• Two new two dimensional metal organic frameworks namely {Er 2 [(C 9 N 2 O 4 H 11) 3 ·H 2 O·Br]Br·Cl} n (1) and {Yb 2 [(C 9 N 2 O 4 H 11) 3 (H 2 O) 2 ]Br·Cl 2 } n (2) were solvothemally synthesized with Brønsted ionic liquid as ligand. • The effects of the reaction conditions to the growth of 1 and 2 , such as temperature, reaction solvents, as well as the ratio of solvents were explored. • 1 and 2 display good thermal stability and hydrophilicity in this work. • The magnetic measure of 2 shows its antiferromagnetic interaction via the Yb/O-C-O/Yb pathways. Two lanthanide metal organic frameworks (MOFs) {Er 2 [(C 9 N 2 O 4 H 11) 3 (H 2 O)Br]Br·Cl} n (1) and {Yb 2 [(C 9 N 2 O 4 H 11) 3 (H 2 O) 2 ]Br·Cl 2 } n (2) were solvothermally synthesized using Brønsted acidic ionic liquid: 1,3-bis(1-dicarboxylatoethyl) imidazolium bromide ([H 2 bcei]Br) as ligand. The results of single crystal X-ray diffraction show that Er3+ and Yb3+ both possess two different seven-coordinated chemical environments in 1 and 2 , respectively. While coordinating to Er3+ and Yb3+, [bcei]‒ displays same coordination mode because of their similar ionic radius. Although Er3+ and Yb3+ display different chemical environments, they are all linked by [bcei]− via Ln−O coordination bonds affording two three-dimensional structures with Cl− or Br− in the frameworks through H-bonds and electrostatic interaction. Considering the effect of the reaction temperature, solvents and solvent volume ratio on the crystal growth, the optimized synthesis conditions of 1 and 2 were explored. The magnetic behaviors of 2 were measured in the temperature range 2–300 K, which reveals its antiferromagnetic interaction between Yb3+ions. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
