Anion sensing with luminescent lanthanide complexes of tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amines: pronounced effects of lanthanide center and ligand chirality on anion selectivity and sensitivity.
Luminescent lanthanide complexes with tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine ligands exhibited anion-specific sensory functions, and their anion selectivity and response sensitivity were modulated by a combination of lanthanide center and chiral ligand.
