Six ternary lanthanide complexes formulated as [Ln(2, 4, 6-TMBA)₃(5, 5'-DM-2, 2'-bipy)]₂ (Ln = Pr 1, Nd 2, Sm 3, Eu 4, Gd 5, Dy 6; 2, 4, 6-TMBA = 2, 4, 6-trimethylbenzoate; 5, 5'-DM-2, 2'-bipy = 5, 5'-dimethyl-2, 2'-bipyridine) have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, etc. The results of crystal diffraction analysis show that complexes 1–6 are binuclear units, crystallizing in the triclinic Pī space group. Complexes 1–5 are isostructural, and each of the central metal ions has a coordination number of 9. The asymmetric unit of complexes 1–5 consists of one Ln³⁺, one 5, 5'-DM-2, 2'-bipy ligand, and three 2, 4, 6-TMBA^- moieties with three coordination modes: chelation bidentate, bridging bidentate, and bridging tridentate. The coordination geometry of Ln³⁺ is distorted monocapped square antiprismatic. The binuclear units of complexes 1–5 form a one-dimensional (1D) supramolecular chain along the c-axis via π–π stacking interactions between the 2, 4, 6-trimethylbenzoic acid rings. The 1D chains are linked to form a supramolecular two-dimensional (2D) sheet in the bc plane via π–π stacking interactions between the pyridine rings. Although the molecular formulae of complex 6 and complexes 1–5 are similar, the coordination environment of the lanthanide ions is different in the two cases. The asymmetric unit of complex 6 contains a Dy³⁺ ion coordinated by a bidentate 5, 5'-DM-2, 2'-bipy and three 2, 4, 6-TMBA^- ligands adopting bidentate and bridging bidentate coordination modes. The Dy³⁺ metal center has a coordination number of 8, with distorted square antiprismatic molecular geometry. The binuclear molecule of 6 is assembled into a six-nuclear unit by π–π weak staking interactions between two 5, 5'-DM-2, 2'-bipy ligands; then, adjacent six-nuclear units form a 1D chain via offset π–π interactions between 5, 5'-DM-2, 2'-bipy ligands on different adjacent units. The adjacent 1D chains are linked by C―H···O hydrogen bonding interactions to form a 2D supramolecular structure. The thermal stability and thermal decomposition mechanism of all the complexes are investigated by the combination of thermogravimetry and infrared spectroscopy (TG/FTIR) techniques under a simulated air atmosphere in the temperature range of 298–973 K at a heating rate of 10 K·min^-1. Thermogravimetric studies show that this series of complexes have excellent thermal stability. During the thermal decomposition of the complex, the neutral ligand is lost first, followed by the acid ligand, and finally, the complex is decomposed into rare earth oxides. The three-dimensional infrared results are consistent with the thermogravimetric results. The photoluminescence spectra of complex 4 show the strong characteristic luminescence of Eu³⁺. The five typical emission peaks at 581, 591, 621, 651, and 701 nm correspond to the ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₀, ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₁, ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂, ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₃, and ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₄ electronic transitions of Eu³⁺, respectively. The emission at 621 nm is due to the electric dipole transition ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₂, while that at 591 nm is assigned to the ⁵D₀ → ⁷F₁ the magnetic dipole transition. The lifetime (τ) of complex 4 is calculated as 1.15 ms based on the equation τ = (B₁τ₁² + B₂τ₂²))/(B₁τ₁ + B₂τ₂), and the intrinsic quantum yield is calculated to be 45.1%. Further, the magnetic properties of complex 6 in the temperature range of 2–300 K are studied under an applied magnetic field of 1000 Oe.
