Synthesis, photophysical and assembly studies of novel luminescent lanthanide(III) complexes of 1,2,3-triazolyl-pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide-based ligands

The well-known lanthanide-binding motif, 2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide, has been functionalised with peripheral substituents using copper-catalysed azide alkyne coupling (CuAAC) to develop new symmetri...
