Abstract

In the title centrosymmetric dinuclear complex, [Tm(2)(C(10)H(11)O(4))(6)(C(12)H(8)N(2))(2)], the unique Tm(III) ion is coordin-ated by five 3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl-acetate (DMPA) ligands and and a bis-chelating 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) ligand via seven O atoms and two N atoms, forming a distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic environment. The DMPA ligands coordin-ate in the bis-chelate, bridging and bridging tridentate modes.
