Abstrakt: It is reported the synthesis, characterization by elemental analysis, thermogravimetry; electronic absorption, infrared, excitation, and emission spectroscopies of the [Eu(12C4)(phen) 2 (X) n ]X 2 complexes, where 12C4 = 12-crown-4, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, and X  = F - , Cl - , Br - , SCN - , ClO 4 - , and NO 3 - . It is verified that the polarizability of the anion X - exerts remarkable effects on the emission process. As a general trend, lower wavenumbers for the 7 F 05 L 6 , 7 F 05 D 2 and 7 F 05 D 1 transitions are associated with the anions with higher volumes and, consequently, higher polarizability. The molecular modeling results performed with quantum methods (RHF and DFT) suggest some relationships between the calculated structures, electronic, and luminescence properties with the presence of the LMCT (ligand-to-metal charge transfer) states, which explains the differences in the emission spectra of these complexes due to the coordinated anion.
