Expeditious selective access to functionalized platforms of A7B-type heteroleptic lanthanide double-decker complexes of phthalocyanine

Abstract

A one-step method to access to functionalized heteroleptic lanthanide double-decker complexes of phthalocyanine of A(7)B-type is reported. This optimized statistical method led to two hydroxylated model europium complexes, one of which was further converted into its mesylated and azido derivatives.
