General description

4,4-Difluoro-1-phenyl-1,3-butanedione (DFPB) is a fluorinated β-diketone ligand that can be prepared by reacting acetophenone with methyl-difluoroacetate.

Application

4,4-Difluoro-1-phenyl-1,3-butanedione (DPBD) may be used as a ligand to form the following metal complexes:
  • Eu(DPBD)3·H2O
  • Eu(DPBD)3·biq (biq= 2,2-biquinoline)
  • Eu(DPBD)3·phen (phen= 1,10-phenanthroline)
  • Eu(DPBD)3·neo (neo= neocuproine)
  • Eu(DPBD)3·bipy (bipy= 2,2-bipyridyl)
  • Gd(DPBD)3·(H2O)2
