Abstract
The complex hydrolysis process and strong uncertainty of self-assembly rules have led to the precise synthesis of lanthanide clusters still being in the "blind-box" stage and simplifying the self-assembly process and developing reliable regulation strategies have attracted widespread attention. Herein, different anions are used to induce the construction of a series of dysprosium clusters with different shapes and connections. When the selected anion is NO3-, it blocks the coordination of metal sites around the cluster through the terminal group coordination mode, thereby controlling the growth of the cluster. When NO3- was changed to OAc-, OAc- adopted a bridging mode to induce modular units to build dysprosium clusters through an annular growth mechanism. Specifically, we selected 2-amino-6-methoxybenzoic acid, 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde, and Dy(NO3)3·6H2O to react under solvothermal conditions to obtain a pentanuclear dysprosium cluster (1). The five Dy(III) ions in 1 are distributed in upper and lower planes and are formed by the tight connection of nitrogen and oxygen atoms, and μ3-OH- bridges on the ligand. Next, octa-nuclear dysprosium cluster (2) were obtained by only regulating ligand substituents. The eight Dy(III) ions in 2 are tightly connected through ligand oxygen atoms, μ2-OH-, and μ3-OH- bridges, forming an elliptical {Dy/O} cluster core. Furthermore, only by changing NO3- to OAc-, a wheel-shaped tetradeca-nuclear dysprosium cluster (3) was obtained. Cluster 3 is composed of OAc- bridged multiple template Dy3L3 units and pulling of these template units connected by an annular growth mechanism forms a wheel-shaped cluster. The angle of the coordination site on NO3- is ∠ONO = 115°, which leads to the further extension of the metal sites on the periphery of clusters 1 and 2 through the terminal group coordination mode, thereby regulating the structural connection of the clusters. However, the angle of the coordination site on OAc- is ∠OCO = 128°, and a slightly increased angle leads to the formation of a ring-shaped cluster 3 by connecting the template units through bridging. This is a rare example of the controllable construction of lanthanide clusters with different shapes induced by the regulation of different anions, which provides a new method for the precise construction of lanthanide clusters with special shapes.

Abstract
There is an unmet need for easy-to-visualize drug carriers that can deliver therapeutic cargoes deep into solid tumors. Herein, we report the preparation of ultrasmall luminescent imine-based lanthanide nanocages, Eu60 and Tb60 (collectively Ln60 ), designed to encapsulate anticancer chemotherapeutics for tumor therapy. The as-prepared nanocages possess large cavities suitable for the encapsulation of doxorubicin (DOX), yielding DOX@Ln60 nanocages with diameters around 5 nm. DOX@Ln60 are efficiently internalized by breast cancer cells, allowing the cells to be visualized via the intrinsic luminescent property of Ln(III). Once internalized, the acidic intracellular microenvironment promotes imine bond cleavage and the release of the loaded DOX. DOX@Ln60 inhibits DNA replication and triggers tumor cell apoptosis. In a murine triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) model, DOX@Ln60 was found to inhibit tumor growth with negligible side effects on normal tissues. It proved more effective than various controls, including DOX and Ln60 . The present nanocages thus point the way to the development of precise nanomedicines for tumor imaging and therapy.

Abstract
The first coordination-saturated buckyball with a C60 molecule totally encased in an icosidodecahedral Cu30 in a (μ30 -(η2 )30 )-fashion, namely C60 @Cu30 @Cl36 N12 , has been successfully realized by a C60 -templated assembly. The 48 outmost coordinating atoms (36Cl+12N) comprise a new simple polyhedron that is described by a ccf topology. Charge transfer from (CuI , Cl) to C60 explains the expansion of the light absorption up to 700 nm, and accounts for an ultrafast photophysical process that underpins its high photothermal conversion efficiency. This work makes a giant step forward in exohedral metallofullerene (ExMF) chemistry.

Abstract
Composition control is a powerful tool for obtaining high-performance lanthanide (Ln) luminescent materials with adjustable optical outputs. This strategy is well-established for hierarchically structured nanoparticles, but it is rarely applied to molecular compounds due to the limited number of metal centers within a single unit. In this work, we present a series of molecular cluster-aggregates (MCAs) with an icosanuclear core {Ln2Eu2Tb16} (Ln = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Yb) in which we explore composition control, akin to nanoparticles, to modulate the optical output. More specifically, we target to understand how the presence of a third LnIII doping ion would impact the well-known TbIII → EuIII energy transfer and the ratiometric optical thermometry performance based on the TbIII/EuIII pair. Photophysical properties at room and at varying temperatures were investigated. Based on experimental data and well-established intrinsic features, such as spin-orbit coupling strength and LnIII 4f energy levels' structure, we discuss the possible luminescent processes present in each MCA and provide insight into qualitative trends that can be rationally correlated throughout the series.

Abstract
In this perspective, we provide an overview of the recent achievements in luminescent lanthanide-based molecular cluster-aggregates (MCAs) and illustrate why MCAs can be seen as the next generation of highly efficient optical materials. MCAs are high nuclearity compounds composed of rigid multinuclear metal cores encapsulated by organic ligands. The combination of high nuclearity and molecular structure makes MCAs an ideal class of compounds that can unify the properties of traditional nanoparticles and small molecules. By bridging the gap between both domains, MCAs intrinsically retain unique features with tremendous impacts on their optical properties. Although homometallic luminescent MCAs have been extensively studied since the late 1990s, it was only recently that heterometallic luminescent MCAs were pioneered as tunable luminescent materials. These heterometallic systems have shown tremendous impacts in areas such as anti-counterfeiting materials, luminescent thermometry, and molecular upconversion, thus representing a new generation of lanthanide-based optical materials.

Abstract
Luminescence thermometry with trivalent lanthanide ions is a promising avenue for contactless temperature probing. The area has been growing exponentially for the last two decades, and its viability has been successfully demonstrated in various research domains. However, moving from laboratory equipment to real-life applications remains a challenging task. One of the reasons is the possibility of a background luminescence from the probing device or probed environment. To tackle this issue, we elegantly incorporate a rarely explored thermometric approach called time-gated luminescence thermometry (TGLT). Furthermore, we demonstrate an enhanced relative sensitivity through this innovative approach and a path to move toward practical application.

Abstract
The self-assembly of the high-nuclearity Ln-exclusive nanoclusters is challenging but of significance due to its aesthetically pleasing architectures and far-reaching latent applications in magnetic cooling technologies. Herein, two novel high-nuclearity lanthanide nanoclusters were successfully synthesized under solvothermal conditions, formulated as {[Gd18(IN)20(HCOO)8(μ6-O)(μ3-OH)24(H2O)4]·4H2O}n and {[Eu18(IN)16(HCOO)8(CH3COO)4(μ6-O)(μ3-OH)24(H2O)4]·5H2O}n (abbreviated as Gd18 and Eu18, HIN = isonicotinic acid). Both of them possess novel and exquisite windmill-shaped cationic cores in the family of high-nuclearity Ln-exclusive nanoclusters. Remarkably, the adjacent second building units are interconnected into a three-dimensional (3D) metal-organic framework by IN- ligands. As expected, the abundant existence of GdIII ions endows Gd18 with a favorable magnetic entropy change at 2.0 K for ΔH = 7.0 T (-ΔSmmax = 40.0 J kg-1 K-1), and Eu18 displays the typical luminescence of EuIII ions.

Abstract
Metal-containing clusters have attracted increasing attention over the past 2-3 decades. This intense interest can be attributed to the fact that these discrete metal aggregates, whose atomically precise structures are resolved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), often possess intriguing geometrical features (high symmetry, aesthetically pleasing shapes and architectures) and fascinating physical properties, providing invaluable opportunities for the intersection of different disciplines including chemistry, physics, mathematical geometry and materials science. In this review, we attempt to reinterpret and connect these fascinating clusters from the perspective of Platonic and Archimedean solid characteristics, focusing on highly symmetrical and complex metal-containing (metal = Al, Ti, V, Mo, W, U, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu, Ag, Au, lanthanoids (Ln), and actinoids) high-nuclearity clusters, including metal-oxo/hydroxide/chalcogenide clusters and metal clusters (with metal-metal binding) protected by surface organic ligands, such as thiolate, phosphine, alkynyl, carbonyl and nitrogen/oxygen donor ligands. Furthermore, we present the symmetrical beauty of metal cluster structures and the geometrical similarity of different types of clusters and provide a large number of examples to show how to accurately describe the metal clusters from the perspective of highly symmetrical polyhedra. Finally, knowledge and further insights into the design and synthesis of unknown metal clusters are put forward by summarizing these "star" molecules.

Abstract
Starting from a dinuclear complex {Gd2(L)2(NO3)4(H2O)2}·2(CH3CN) (1) based on 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (HL), a nonanuclear cluster {Gd9(L)4(μ4-OH)2(μ3-OH)8(μ2-OCH3)4(NO3)8 (H2O)8}(OH)·2H2O (2) was obtained via modulating the amount of the ligand and base. Both of them have been structurally and magnetically characterized. Complex 1 decorates the Gd2 core bridged by double μ2-phenoxyl oxygen atoms and coordinated neutral CH3CN molecules, while 2 features the Gd9 core with a sandglass-like topology. Magnetic investigations reveal that the weaker antiferromagnetic interactions between adjacent metal ions exist in complex 2 than in 1, which is in agreement with the theoretical results. Meanwhile, the magnetocaloric effect with a maximum -ΔS m value changes from 27.32 to 40.60 J kg-1 K-1 at 2 K and 7 T.

Abstract
Upconversion (UC) is a fascinating process in which higher energy photons can be emitted from excitation by lower energy photons. The current challenge remains in downscaling and effectively achieving upconversion with lanthanide ions at the molecular scale. Here, using a rationally designed molecular cluster-aggregate (MCA), we demonstrate for the first time HoIII ion molecular upconversion. The synthesized MCA exhibits identifiable HoIII green and red UC emissions with a uniquely enhanced red to green ratio as well as a conventional near-infrared (NIR) emission. A combined rigid spherical cluster core with reduced molecular vibrations, ideally matched donor and acceptor excited levels via a phonon-assisted mechanism, led to an upconversion quantum yield of 5.24 × 10-6%.

A family of nanoclusters, [Ln33(EDTA)12(OAc)2(CO3)4(μ3-OH)36(μ5-OH)4(H2O)38]·OAc·xH2O (x ≈ 50, Ln = Sm for 1; x ≈ 70, Ln = Eu for 2) and [Gd32(EDTA)12(OAc)2(C2O4)(CO3)2(μ3-OH)36(μ5-OH)4(H2O)36]·x(H2O) (x ≈ 70 for 3; H4EDTA = ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid), was prepared through the assembly of repeating subunits under the action of an anion template. The analysis of the structures showed that compounds 1 and 2 containing 33 Ln3+ ions were isostructural, which were constructed by three kinds of subunits in the presence of CO32- as an anion template, while compound 3 had a slightly different structure. Compound 3 containing 32 Gd3+ ions was formed by three types of subunits in the presence of CO32- and C2O42- as a mixed anion template. The CO32- anions came from the slow fixation of CO2 in the air. Meanwhile, one kind of high-nuclearity lanthanide clusters showed high chemical stability. The quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculation suggested that weak antiferromagnetic interactions were dominant between Gd3+ ions in 3. Magnetocaloric studies showed that compound 3 had a large entropy change of 43.0 J kg-1 K-1 at 2 K and 7 T. Surprisingly, compound 2 showed excellent recognition and detection effects for permanganate in aqueous solvents based on the fluorescence quenching phenomenon.

Abstract
To meet the challenges in resolving the complex morphologies of emergent nanoparticles, a program with a user-friendly graphical user interface has been developed for calculating small-angle scattering curves from custom shapes. The software allows STL-format 3D models, models defined by mathematical functions or combinations of the two as initial input. As a transitional stage, lattice models are generated and the orientation-averaged small-angle scattering data can be calculated using typical spherical harmonics expansion. The validity of the protocol is verified by demonstration models with Protein Data Bank structures and known scattering functions. The software is applied to successfully calculate the scattering curves of a porous spherical shell model where traditional mathematical derivation fails.

Abstract
The discovered giant clusters are always highly symmetric owing to the spontaneous assembly of one or two basic units. Herein we report the Gd44 Co28 crown and Gd95 Co60 cage, formulated as [Gd44 Co28 (IDA)20 (OH)72 (CO3 )12 (OAc)28 (H2 O)64 ]⋅(ClO4 )24 and [Na4 Gd95 Co60 (IDA)40 (OH)150 (CO3 )40 (OAc)58 (H2 O)164 ] ⋅ (ClO4 )41 (H2 IDA=iminodiacetic acid), respectively, by providing a library containing multiple low-nuclearity units. The heart-like units and crown-like tetramer found in both compounds indicate unprecedented assembly levels, leading to an atypical geometry characteristic compared to the giant clusters directly assembled by regular units. These two clusters not only significantly increase the size of Ln-Co clusters but also exhibit the enhanced magnetic entropy change at ultra-low temperatures. This work provided an effective way to fabricate cluster compounds with giant size and geometry complexity simultaneously.

Abstract
The level of L-kynurenine (L-kyn) can reflect the health state of human body, and the determination of L-kyn can be used for the medical diagnosis of several cancers and neurological diseases. In this work, a series of air-, water-, and thermo-stable dinuclear lanthanide nanoclusters [Ln2(2,5-DFBA)6(phen)2] (Tb 1, Eu 2, Gd 3, 2,5-DFBA = 2,5-difluorobenzoic acid, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) are obtained by a facial method. 1 and 2 show very high luminescence quantum yields (QYs) of 71.7% and 81.8%, respectively. Interestingly, investigation reveals that 1 is a quick, highly sensitive and selective sensor for L-kyn in real samples of urine and serum. Furthermore, transmission electron microscope (TEM) results reveal that nanocluster 1 is stable in solution and can be uniform distributed on the base, suggesting it can be deposited on various supports to fabricate sensing devices. Thus, 1 is fabricated into a sensitive test paper for the eye-readable detection of L-kyn in real samples of human urine and serum. The limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.3 μM, which is enough to rapidly determine L-kyn in human body liquor (usually 5 μM in healthy human body).

Abstract
The understanding of the hydrolysis mechanism of lanthanide ions is limited by their elusive coordination configuration and undeveloped technology. A potential solution by high-resolution mass spectroscopy studies is hindered by the lack of a stable model under electrospray ionization (ESI) conditions and the complexity of the spectra. Herein, it is demonstrated that diketonate ligands can efficiently stabilize the hydrolyzed intermediate cluster of Ln3+ under ESI conditions, and an effective mass difference fingerprint of isomorphism (MDFI) method is proposed, which can allow the determination of the nuclearity-number of the species without depth resolution. Thus, the hydrolysis of Ln3+ into an atomically precise hydroxide cluster is observed at the level of precise formulae. The species evolution upon hydrolysis is along the dominant path of {Eu3}-{Eu4}-{Eu9}-{Eu10}-{Eu11}-{Eu15}-{Eu16} and a nondominant path of {Eu3}-{Eu4}-{Eu8-1}-{Eu8-2} under the investigated conditions. The crystal of the {Eu16} species was obtained via low-temperature crystallization, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies show that its structure contains three octahedral {o-Ln6} units. The contradiction between multiple {o-Ln6} units in the structure and the absence in the formation process indicates that the repetitive subunit observed in the structure does not necessarily correspond to the construction units of high-nuclearity clusters. Photophysical measurements indicate that Eu16 cluster has a high total emission quantum efficacy of 12.8% in the solid state. This study provides fundamental insights into the formation, evolution, and assembly of small lanthanide hydroxide units upon hydrolysis, which is vital for the goal of directional synthesis of lanthanide hydroxide clusters.

Abstract
We investigated the gas phase fragmentation events of highly symmetric fullerene-like (FN-like) titanium oxo-cluster anions, [H12Ti42O60(OCH3)42(HOCH3)10(H2O)2]2- (1) and [H7Ti42O60(OCH3)42(HOCH3)10(H2O)3]1- (2). These oxo-clusters contain a closed cage Ti42O60 core, protected by a specific number of methoxy, methanol, and water molecules acting as ligands. These dianionic and monoanionic species were generated in the gas phase by electrospray ionization of the H6[Ti42(μ3-O)60(OiPr)42(OH)12] (TOF) cluster in methanol. Collision induced dissociation studies of 1 revealed that upon increasing the collision energy, the protecting ligands were stripped off first, and [Ti41O58]2- was formed as the first fragment from the Ti42O60 core. Thereafter, systematic TiO2 losses were observed giving rise to subsequent fragments like [Ti40O56]2-, [Ti39O54]2-, [Ti38O52]2-, etc. Similar fragments were also observed for monoanionic species 2 as well. Systematic 23 TiO2 losses were observed, which were followed by complete shattering of the cage. We also carried out computational studies using density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the structures and fragmentation mechanism. The fragmentation of TOF was comparable to the fragmentation of C60 ions, where systematic C2 losses were observed. We believe that this is a consequence of topological similarity. The present study provides valuable insights into the structural constitution of TOF clusters and stability of the parent as well as the resulting cage-fragments in the gas phase.

Abstract
Lanthanide-oxo/hydroxo clusters (LOCs) in this mini-review refer to polynuclear complexes featuring a polyhedral metal-oxo/hydroxo cluster core of lanthanide ions exclusively or with coexisting 3d metal ions. We summarize herein the recent works using this unique family of cluster complexes for catalysis; this aspect of research stands in stark contrast to their extensively studied synthetic and structural chemistry as well as the much-researched magnetic properties. Following a brief introduction of the synthetic strategies for these clusters, pertinent results from available literature reports are surveyed and discussed according to the types of catalyzed reactions. Particular attention was paid to the selection of a cluster catalyst for a specific type of reactions as well as the corresponding reaction mechanism. To the end, the advantages and challenges in utilizing LOCs as multifunctional catalysts are summarized, and possible future research directions are proposed.

Abstract
Accurately controlling the hydrolysis of metal ions can not only yield the desired structure of metal hydroxide clusters but also provide a deeper understanding of the formation process of natural hydroxide minerals. However, the capture of hydrolysis intermediates remains a significant challenge, and metal hydroxide clusters are mainly obtained by employing adventitious hydrolysis. In this study, we realized a hierarchical building block assembly from Y3+ ions to large Y12, Y34, and Y60 clusters by controlling the hydrolysis process of lanthanide ions under different pH conditions. Single-crystal structural analysis showed that the Y12 wheel, Y34 ship, and Y60 sodalite cage contain 4, 12, and 24 cubane-like [Y4(μ3-OH)4]8+ units, respectively. The structure of the Y60 cluster can be attributed to two Y34 clusters or six Y12 clusters linked by vertices. These clusters can be synthesized through the hydrolysis of Y3+ under different pH conditions, and Y60 can be prepared from the obtained Y12 or Y34 crystals by the simple addition of Y3+ ions. The capture and conversion of the intermediates of lanthanide series hydroxide clusters, Y12 or Y34, during the assembly from Y3+ ions to Y60 can facilitate an understanding of the formation process of high-nuclearity lanthanide clusters.

Abstract
Modulating the optical property of a material via structural modification is a powerful tool for obtaining the desired optical output. If a material can be tuned inside (core) and outside (outer shell), then the degree of control is greater toward application. Herein, we present a lanthanide-based nanosized molecular cluster aggregate (MCA) that allows fine-tuning of the inner core via composition control akin to nanoparticles. At the same time, the tunable outer shell enables light-harvesting properties similar to molecular systems. As such {Eu4Tb16}, {Eu3Gd5Tb12}, {Eu2Gd10Tb8}, and {Eu1Gd15Tb4} compositions were synthesized, and their photophysical properties were investigated in solution and in the solid state. Controlling the composition and spacing of the emitter ions with the optically silent GdIII ions results in a decrease in the TbIII → EuIII energy-transfer process efficiency. Consequently, ratiometric luminescence thermometry performance is fine-tuned to reach a maximum relative sensitivity of 4.17% °C-1 at 36 °C for the {Eu4Tb16} MCA. This study demonstrates that the optical properties are intrinsic to individual MCA species rather than a collective intermolecular effect. The color change observed close to room temperature for {Eu2Gd10Tb8} suggests potential applications such as multistage anticounterfeiting technology.

Abstract
A series of tetranuclear lanthanide-based clusters [Ln4(dbm)6(L)2(CH3OH)4]·2CH3OH (Ln(III) = Gd (1), Dy (2), and Ho (3); H3L = 2-[(2-(hydroxyimino)propanehydrazide)methyl]-2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde, Hdbm = dibenzoylmethane) and octanuclear lanthanide-based clusters [Ln8(HL)10(CH3O)4(CH3OH)2]·6CH3OH (Ln(III) = Gd (4), Dy (5)) were assembled using a polydentate Schiff-base ligand H3L and two different β-diketone salts via a solvothermal method, and their structures and magnetic properties have been characterized. Interestingly, β-diketones play an important role in assembling and affecting the structures of Ln4 to Ln8 clusters. This is the first use of β-diketone to affect the structures of polynuclear Ln(III)-based clusters from linear-shaped Ln4 clusters to Ln8 clusters. Magnetic studies revealed that antiferromagnetic interactions exist in clusters 1-Gd4 and 4-Gd8. More importantly, clusters 1-Gd4 and 4-Gd8 display significant cryogenic magnetic refrigeration properties (-ΔSm = 24.88 J kg-1 K-1 for 1-Gd4 and -ΔSm = 32.52 J kg-1 K-1 for 4-Gd8); the results show that cluster 4-Gd8 exhibits a larger magnetocaloric effect than 1-Gd4. Cluster 2-Dy4 shows remarkable single-molecule magnet (SMM) behavior (ΔE/kB = 67.5 K and τ0 = 3.06 × 10-7 s) under a zero dc field, and 5-Dy8 exhibits a field-induced SMM-like behavior (ΔE/kB = 39.83 K and τ0 = 2.12 × 10-7 s) under a 5000 Oe dc field.

Abstract
A high-nuclearity 3d-4f cluster of [Gd30CoII6CoIII6(OH)56(NO3)12(CH3COO)30(H2O)30]·(NO3)22·(en)3·(H2O)3 (1) was synthesized through the reaction of Gd(NO3)3·6H2O, Co(NO3)2·6H2O, and sodium acetate in a mixture of ethanediamine (en), ethanol, and deionized water. The cluster core in 1 features a double-shell structure with a Co12 icosahedron encapsulating a Gd30 icosidodecahedron. A magnetic study reveals that separating Co2+ ions with Gd3+ ions can effectively reduce the magnetic interaction of 3d-4f clusters. Significantly, the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of 1 at 2 K and 7 T is up to 44.7 J kg-1 K-1, the largest MCE reported to date in the 3d-4f metal clusters.

Abstract
Real-time and visual monitoring of pollutants in the air is of great importance since they are usually cannot be seen, smelled, or touched. Lanthanide nano-cluster is a kind of luminescent sensor for various species. However, controlling synthesis of lanthanide nano-cluster remains experimentally challenging. In this work, four series of lanthanide-barium (Ln-Ba) nano-clusters of Dy2Ba (1), Tb2Ba2 (2), Ln4Ba3 (Ln = Tb, 3a; Eu, 3b), Tb4Ba4 (4) were assembled through precisely controlling the pH of the reactant solutions. The work features the first example that the number of cluster's nuclei changes regularly with the pH. Moreover, investigation reveals that nano-cluster 3a is a highly selective and sensitive sensor towards acetylacetone (acac) and aniline. Interestingly, easy-to-use sensing devices of test paper, agarose gel, and five kinds of film on CaCO3, polyfoam, coin, mask, and wall that based on 3a were fabricated by facile methods. The seven sensing devices showed remarkable ability to sense aniline and acac vapors with visibility to the naked eyes. This is the first work on multiple real-time and visual sensing devices based on the lanthanide nano-cluster.

Abstract
Counterfeit goods represent a major problem to companies, governments, and customers, affecting the global economy. In order to protect the authenticity of products and documents, optical anti-counterfeit technologies have widely been employed via the use of discrete molecular species, extended metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and nanoparticles. Herein, for the first time we demonstrate the potential use of molecular cluster-aggregates (MCA) as optical barcodes via composition and energy transfer control. The tuneable optical properties for the [Ln20 (chp)30 (CO3 )12 (NO3 )6 (H2 O)6 ], where chp- =deprotonated 6-chloro-2-pyridinol, allow the fine control of the emission colour output, resulting in high-security level optical labelling with a precise read-out. Moreover, a unique tri-doped composition of GdIII , TbIII , and EuIII led to MCAs with white-light emission. The presented methodology is a unique approach to probe the effect of composition control on the luminescent properties of nanosized molecular material.

Abstract
Tetramethylaluminato/halogenido(X) ligand exchange reactions in half-sandwich complexes [CpR La(AlMe4 )2 ] are feasible in non-coordinating solvents and provide access to large coordination clusters of the type [CpR LaX2 ]x . Incomplete exchange reactions generate the hexalanthanum clusters [CpR 6 La6 X8 (AlMe4 )4 ] (CpR =Cp*=C5 Me5 , X=I; CpR =Cp'=C5 H4 SiMe3 , X=Br, I). Treatment of [Cp*La(AlMe4 )2 ] with two equivalents Me3 SiI gave the nonalanthanum cluster [Cp*LaI2 ]9 , while the exhaustive reaction of [Cp'La(AlMe4 )2 ] with the halogenido transfer reagents Me3 GeX and Me3 SiX (X=I, Br, Cl) produced a series of monocyclopentadienyl rare-earth-metal clusters with distinct nuclearity. Depending on the halogenido ion size the homometallic clusters [Cp'LaCl2 ]10 and [Cp'LaX2 ]12 (X=Br, I) could be isolated, whereas different crystallization techniques led to the aggregation of clusters of distinct structural motifs, including the desilylated cyclopentadienyl-bridged cluster [(μ-Cp)2 Cp'8 La8 I14 ] and the heteroaluminato derivative [Cp'10 La10 Br18 (AlBr2 Me2 )2 ]. The use of the Cp' ancillary ligand facilitates cluster characterization by means of NMR spectroscopy.

Abstract
We report here that energy migration during luminescence can be extremely minimized by caging the fluorescent centers in a molecular cluster of [Tb6(μ3-F)8(piv)10(Hpiv)4DMF]·xDMF·yH2O 1. Experimental and theoretical simulations reveal that bonding terbium with fluoride is the key to reducing the non-radiative multi-phonon relaxation processes, which is disparate to the common hydroxy-based lanthanide clusters.

Abstract
Near-Infrared emissions are highly important in biological and telecommunications technology. For the first time, NIR-to-NIR emission was achieved in a water-soluble molecular cluster-aggregate. The erbium analogue of the highly tunable [Ln6(teaH)6(NO3)6] complex emits at 1530 nm with direct excitation at 980 nm, and can be boosted by replacing three erbium ions with three ytterbium(iii), in the molecular structure. The presented methodology is a unique approach to probe the effect of composition control and harness the luminescence properties of nanoscale molecular material.

Abstract
Magnetic properties of three variants of MOF-76(Gd), {[Gd(BTC)(H2O)]·G}n (BTC = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate, G = guest molecules) were investigated by static susceptibility, isothermal magnetization and specific heat capacity measurements. In the study we used as synthesized MOF-76(Gd)-DMF (1) (G = DMF = dimethylformamide), containing DMF molecules in the cavity system, compound MOF-76(Gd) (2), activated complex without solvents in the cavities and water exchanged sample MOF-76(Gd)-H2O (3). A pronounced change in the magnetic entropy was found near the critical temperature for all three compounds. It was shown, that magnetic entropy change depends on the solvatation of the MOF. The highest value entropy change, ΔSMpk(T) was observed for compound 2 (ΔSMpk(T) = 42 J kg-1 K-1 at 1.8 K for ΔH = 5 T). The ΔSMpk(T) for the compounds 1, 2 and 3 reached 81.8, 88.4 and 100% of the theoretical values, respectively. This suggests that in compound 3 Gd3+···Gd3+ antiferromagnetic interactions are decoupled gradually, and higher fields promote a larger decoupling between the individual spin centers. The observed entropy changes of compounds were comparable with other magnetic refrigerants proposed for low-temperature applications. To study the magnetothermal effect of 2 (the sample with largest -ΔSMpk), the temperature-dependent heat capacities (C) at different fields were measured. The value of magnetic entropy S obtained from heat capacities (39.5 J kg-1 K-1 at 1.8 K for an applied magnetic field change of 5 T) was in good agreement with that derived from the magnetization data (42 J kg-1 K-1 at 1.8 K).

Abstract
The development of science and technology of advanced materials using nanoscale units can be conducted by a novel concept involving combination of nanotechnology methodology with various research disciplines, especially supramolecular chemistry. The novel concept is called 'nanoarchitectonics' where self-assembly processes are crucial in many cases involving a wide range of component materials. This review of self-assembly processes re-examines recent progress in materials nanoarchitectonics. It is composed of three main sections: (1) the first short section describes typical examples of self-assembly research to outline the matters discussed in this review; (2) the second section summarizes self-assemblies at interfaces from general viewpoints; and (3) the final section is focused on self-assembly processes at interfaces. The examples presented demonstrate the strikingly wide range of possibilities and future potential of self-assembly processes and their important contribution to materials nanoarchitectonics. The research examples described in this review cover variously structured objects including molecular machines, molecular receptors, molecular pliers, molecular rotors, nanoparticles, nanosheets, nanotubes, nanowires, nanoflakes, nanocubes, nanodisks, nanoring, block copolymers, hyperbranched polymers, supramolecular polymers, supramolecular gels, liquid crystals, Langmuir monolayers, Langmuir-Blodgett films, self-assembled monolayers, thin films, layer-by-layer structures, breath figure motif structures, two-dimensional molecular patterns, fullerene crystals, metal-organic frameworks, coordination polymers, coordination capsules, porous carbon spheres, mesoporous materials, polynuclear catalysts, DNA origamis, transmembrane channels, peptide conjugates, and vesicles, as well as functional materials for sensing, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, photovoltaics, charge transport, excitation energy transfer, light-harvesting, photocatalysts, field effect transistors, logic gates, organic semiconductors, thin-film-based devices, drug delivery, cell culture, supramolecular differentiation, molecular recognition, molecular tuning, and hand-operating (hand-operated) nanotechnology.

Abstract
Depending on the reaction conditions, either guest or host truncation is observed upon self-assembly of [Cp*Fe(η5-P5)], [(CpCr)2(η5-As5)] and copper halides.
Pentaphosphaferrocene [Cp*Fe(η5-P5)] in combination with Cu(i) halides is capable of a template-directed synthesis of fullerene-like spheres. Herein, we present the use of a triple decker complex as template that leads to the formation of unprecedented ‘nano-bowls’. These spherical domes resemble the truncated fullerenes Ih-C80 and represent a novel spherical arrangement in the chemistry of spherical molecules.
