Synthesis of Eu （III） and Tb （III） Complexes with New Aryl Amide Type Tetrapodal Ligand and Their Luminescence Properties

A new aryl amide type tetrapodal ligand L (1,1,1,1-tetrakis-{[(2-benzylaminoformyl) phenoxyl] methyl} methane) and its europium and terbium nitrate complexes were synthesized. The luminescence properties of these complexes were also studied.
