Clicked dipicolinic antennae for lanthanide luminescent probes?

Dalton Transactions Pub Date: 2010-06-25 DOI: 10.1039/C002982C

Abstract

4-Triazolyl-dipicolinic acids, prepared efficiently by CuAAC, proved to act as efficient antennae for optical lanthanide probes containing Eu3+ or Tb3+, under linear and non linear excitations (one, two and three photons provided by laser induced luminescence). The versatility offered by the substitution of the triazole subunit is, in addition, useful for covalent linkage to slide glass providing luminescent films.
