First lanthanide dipolar complexes for second-order nonlinear optics.
New push-pull NLO-phores based on lanthanide complexes (Ln = La, Gd, Dy, Yb) featuring an annelated dibutylaminophenyl functionalised terpyridyl ligand have been synthesised and shown to exhibit large first-order hyperpolarizability.
