1. A bis-imine complex of lanthanides having general formula (I): wherein:
Ln represents a metal of the series of lanthanides;n is 0 or 1;Y represents a —CHR group wherein R represents a hydrogen atom, or a linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl group;R1 and R2, equal to or different from each other, represent a hydrogen atom; or they are selected from linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups, cycloalkyl groups optionally substituted; or R1 and R2 are optionally bound to each other so as to form, together with the other atoms to which they are bound, a saturated, unsaturated or aromatic cycle containing from 4 to 6 carbon atoms, optionally substituted with linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups, said cycle optionally containing heteroatoms;R3 and R4, equal to or different from each other, represent a hydrogen atom; or they are selected from linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups, cycloalkyl groups optionally substituted, aryl groups optionally substituted;or R2 and R4 are optionally bound to each other so as to form, together with the other atoms to which they are bound, a saturated, unsaturated or aromatic cycle containing from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, optionally substituted with linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups, said cycle optionally containing other heteroatoms;or R1 and R3 can be optionally bound to each other so as to form, together with the other atoms to which they are bound, a saturated, unsaturated or aromatic cycle containing from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, optionally substituted with linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups, said cycle optionally containing other heteroatoms; andX1, X2 and X3, equal to or different from each other, represent a halogen atom; or they are selected from linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups, —OCOR5 or —OR5 groups wherein R5 is selected from linear or branched C1-C20 alkyl groups. |
