title: Synthesis and structural characterisation of novel linked bis(beta-diketiminato) rare earth metal complexes.
abstract: Rare earth metal complexes based on novel linked bis(beta-diketiminato) ligands have been prepared via amine elimination and their structural characterisation revealed that the linker unit has significant influence on the geometry and coordination mode of the ancillary ligand.
