Very bright, enantiopure europium(III) complexes allow time-gated chiral contrast imaging (2016)
Journal Article
Frawley, A., Pal, D., & Parker, D. (2016). Very bright, enantiopure europium(III) complexes allow time-gated chiral contrast imaging. Chemical Communications, 52(91), 13349-13352. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6cc07313a

Chiral image contrast is demonstrated using enantiopure Eu(III) complexes that emit right or left-handed circularly polarised light of opposite sign, at selected wavelengths.

Novel aminoalkyl tris-cyclometalated iridium complexes as cellular stains (2016)
Journal Article
Sansee, A., Meksawangwong, S., Chainok, K., Franz, K., Gal, M., Palsson, L. -., …Kielar, F. (2016). Novel aminoalkyl tris-cyclometalated iridium complexes as cellular stains. Dalton Transactions, 45(43), 17420-17430. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6dt02776h

Herein we report the synthesis and investigation of the properties of two tris-cyclometalated luminescent iridium complexes. These complexes are the simple derivatives of fac-[Ir(ppy)3] bearing amino alkyl groups on one of the phenylpyridine rings. T...

New Class of Bright and Highly Stable Chiral Cyclen Europium Complexes for Circularly Polarized Luminescence Applications (2016)
Journal Article
Dai, L., Lo, W., Coates, I. D., Pal, R., & Law, G. (2016). New Class of Bright and Highly Stable Chiral Cyclen Europium Complexes for Circularly Polarized Luminescence Applications. Inorganic Chemistry, 55(17), 9065-9070. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.inorgchem.6b01546

High glum values of +0.30 (ΔJ = 1, 591 nm, in DMSO) and −0.23 (ΔJ = 1, 589 nm, in H2O) were recorded in our series of newly designed macrocyclic europium(III) complexes. A sterically locking approach involving a bidentate chromophore is adopted to co...

Induced europium CPL for the selective signalling of phosphorylated amino-acids and O-phosphorylated hexapeptides (2016)
Journal Article
Neil, E., Pal, R., Fox, M., & Parker, D. (2016). Induced europium CPL for the selective signalling of phosphorylated amino-acids and O-phosphorylated hexapeptides. Dalton Transactions, 45(20), 8355-8366. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6dt01212d

Two bright, europium(III) complexes based on an achiral heptadentate triazacyclononane ligand bearing two strongly absorbing chromophores have been evaluated for the selective emission and CPL signalling of various chiral O-phosphono-anions. Binding... Read More about Induced europium CPL for the selective signalling of phosphorylated amino-acids and O-phosphorylated hexapeptides.

Anisotropic lanthanide-based nano-clusters for imaging applications (2016)
Journal Article
Yang, X., Wang, S., King, T. L., Kerr, C. J., Blanchet, C., Svergun, D., …Huang, S. (2016). Anisotropic lanthanide-based nano-clusters for imaging applications. Faraday Discussions, 191, 465-479. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6fd00018e

We have developed a new class of lanthanide nano-clusters that self-assemble using flexible Schiff base ligands. Cd–Ln and Ni–Ln clusters, [Ln8Cd24(L1)12(OAc)39Cl7(OH)2] (Ln = Nd, Eu), [Eu8Cd24(L1)12(OAc)44], [Ln8Cd24(L2)12(OAc)44] (Ln = Nd, Yb, Sm)...

Structural Control of Cell Permeability with Highly Emissive Europium(III) Complexes Permits Different Microscopy Applications (2016)
Journal Article
Starck, M., Pal, R., & Parker, D. (2016). Structural Control of Cell Permeability with Highly Emissive Europium(III) Complexes Permits Different Microscopy Applications. Chemistry - A European Journal, 22(2), 570-580. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201504103

Four anionic europium complexes are described based on triazacyclononane tris-carboxylate or phosphinate ligands. In each case, the three sensitising chromophores comprise a substituted aryl–alkynyl pyridine group, with complex brightness in water fa...
