Herein, we communicate the synthesis and structural characterization of the next
generation of potential cerium-based scintillators. Three intriguing structural motifs
have been achieved through the use of various alcohols, wherein BuOH and PrOH
lead to 1-D chains of tetradecanuclear rings, isoBuOH leads to 2-D parquet
patterned sheets of tetradecanuclear rings and secBuOH leads to a zig-zag
1-D chain.
