Direct solid-phase synthesis of molecular heterooligonuclear lanthanoid-complexes
Abstract
Lanthanoid complexes are widely used for various applications but so far it is difficult to combine multiple lanthanoids into one single molecular entity with sufficient stability. Here, the authors report a method for this purpose using peptide synthesis, and show that a trinuclear lanthanoid complex can be used to create a luminescence nanocode.
