Abstract: Eight new solid complexes of rare earth ( Ⅲ ) with indole-3-butanoicacid and indole-3-bu-tanoic acid were synthesized in ethanol-water soluton. The new complexes have the composition Ln (IA)3·2H2Oand Ln(IB)3·2H2O(Ln = La,Nd,Sm,Er,IA = C10H8NO2, IB = C12H12NO2). The electronic spectra of the complexes were observed. The molar conductance data show that the complexes are non-electrolyte. IRspectra and XPSmeasurements indicate the unidentate coordination mode of carboxylate ions to rare earth (Ⅲ ) ion in Ln(IA)3 · 2H2Ocompounds and the bidentate coordination mode of carboxylate ions in Ln(IB)3 · 2H2Ocompounds, also show that nitrogen atoms in indole-3-acetates are coordinated, but nitrogen atoms in indole-3-butanoates are uncoordinated. The TG-DTAdata show that the complexes are all relatively stable thermally.
