title: Design and synthesis of a near infra-red luminescent hexanuclear Zn-Nd prism.
abstract: The use of the Schiff-base ligand N,N'-bis(5-bromo-3-methoxysalicylidene)propylene-1,3-diamine (H2L) and 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (BDC) enables the construction of the hexanuclear luminescent Zn-Nd complex [Zn4Nd2L4(1,4-BDC)2].[Nd(NO3)5(H2O)].Et2O.2EtOH.3H2O.
