Complex 1 is characteristic of a novel one-dimensional polycationic chain-like structure and unprecedented ZnCl53~species. Optical absorption spectra of 1 reveal the presence of an optical gap of 3.35 eV. Photoluminescent investigation reve¨˘is that the title complex displays a strong blue-light fluorescent emission band. %K gadolinium %K lanthanide %K photoluminescence %U http://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0717-97072008000400007
