Abstract
Abstract The compound β-dissulfoxide bis(ethylsufinyl)methane (besm) was prepared by oxidation of bis(ethylthio)methane with hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid, and obtained as a mixture of its meso and d,1 diastereomers. An analytical sample was obtained by recrystallization from chloroform-diethyl ether. The racemic-bis(ethylsulfinyl)methane was characterized and studied by CHS elemental analysis, high resolution mass spectrometry, infrared spectra, 1H and 13C NMR. A series of compounds with composition RE(pic)32rac-besm [RE = La, Ce, Nd, Eu, Gd, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu and Y; pic = picrate and rac-besm = racemic-bis(ethylsulfinyl)methane] were synthesized and characterized by CHNS elemental analysis and rare earths complexometric titration with EDTA, conductance measurements, X-ray powder patterns, infrared spectra, visible absorption of the neodymium and emission spectra of the europium materials. The coordination polyhedron around the Eu3+ center is probably a dodecahedron with coordination number eight.
