title: Reversible luminescence switching of a redox-active ferrocene-europium dyad.
abstract: The copper-catalyzed cycloaddition reaction between a propargyl-appended europium complex and azidomethylferrocene yields a d-f dyad whose photophysical properties can be reversibly switched by varying the oxidation state of the ferrocene chromophore.
