What is another word for organolanthanide chemistry?
Pronunciation: [ɔːɡˌanə͡ʊlˈanθɐnˌa͡ɪd kˈɛmɪstɹi] (IPA) 
Organolanthanide chemistry, also known as lanthanide organometallic chemistry, is the study of the chemical properties of compounds that contain both lanthanides and organic molecules. The term organolanthanide chemistry is often used to describe the study of the coordination chemistry of lanthanide metals. Other synonyms for organolanthanide chemistry include lanthanide organic chemistry and lanthanide metal-organic chemistry. This field of study is important for a variety of applications, including catalysis, luminescence and magnetic materials. The properties of organolanthanide compounds are highly dependent on the coordination geometry of the metals, which can be tuned by modifying the organic ligands.
