title: Visible light sensitisation of europium(III) luminescence in a 9-hydroxyphenal-1-one complex.
abstract: The 9-hydroxyphenal-1-one ligand forms stable 3:1 complexes with trivalent lanthanides, in which it acts as an antenna suitable for the visible light excitation (up to 475 nm) of the trivalent europium ion.
