title: Interaction of saccharides with rare earth metal ions: synthesis and characterisation of Pr(III)- and Nd(III)-saccharide complexes.
abstract: A number of complexes are synthesised with Pr(III) and Nd(III) employing the mono- and disaccharides, D-glucose, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-arabinose, D-ribose, D-xylose, maltose and lactose. The complexes are characterised by various spectral and analytical techniques, and based on these data, appropriate structures were assigned for all complexes.
