We report here investigations into the sensitization of lanthanide luminescence with a phenyl substituted carbamoylmethylphosphine oxide (CMPO) ligand. This new ligand sensitizes the luminescence of all four lanthanides that emit in the visible region (Sm3+, Eu3+, Tb3+, Dy3+). The most intense emission is seen from the Tb3+complex. The resulting metal-ligand complexes have been studied in both the solution and solid state (including x-ray crystallography).
