No anhydrous Ln(acac)3?
At least in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), there are very, very few examples of monomeric Ln(acac)3's. So we should be cautious telling readers that these things exist. The Y(acac)3 is the only possibility: Dokl.Akad.Nauk SSSR(Russ.)(Proc.Nat.Acad.Sci.USSR) A.S.Batsanov, Yu.T.Struchkov, G.V.Trembovetskii, I.A.Murav'eva, L.I.Martynenko, V.I.Spitsin 1986, vol 289, 903. Ot is possible that such rarities would be absent from CSD, but most scholars would want their structure to be in the CSD. Probably the anhydrous derivatives are oligomers Ln4O(acac)10 (doi 10.1038/s41929-019-0405-5).--Smokefoot (talk) 22:28, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
