The first three compounds were structurally characterized and feature large water clusters supported between the Eu-terpyO₃ metal–ligand complexes, and 2-D or 1-D motifs of [Au(CN)₄]⁻ anions assembled via Au···<em>N</em>-cyano interactions. <strong>1</strong>·<strong>3H₂O</strong> was amorphous. Crystallographic evidence showed that the [Au(CN)₄]⁻ <em>N</em>-cyano groups replace Eu(III)-bound aqua ligands as dehydration proceeds. The photoluminescence properties of <strong>1</strong>·<strong>9H₂O</strong> and <strong>1</strong>·<strong>3H₂O</strong> show ligand-sensitized Eu(III)-based emission with quantum yields of 20.5(11) and 49(2) % and lifetimes of 277.5(6) and 445(17) μs, respectively, with these differences likely due to the decrease in number of OH oscillators nearby the Eu(III) centres in the lower hydrate form.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":20278,"journal":{"name":"Polyhedron","volume":"274 ","pages":"Article 117494"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143696651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
