Application


  • Divalent Ytterbium Iodide Supported by beta-Diketiminato Based Tridentate Ligand: Synthesis, Structure and Small Molecule Activation: This study explores the synthesis of an ytterbium(II) iodide supported by a beta-diketiminato ligand, highlighting its structure and potential in small molecule activation (X Liu, et al., 2020).

  • Chemical Engineering of Quasicrystal Approximants in Lanthanide-Based Coordination Solids: This paper discusses the use of ytterbium(II) as a building block in quasicrystal approximants with coordination solids, showing how iodide ligands contribute to the stability and assembly of these structures (L Voigt, et al., 2020).
