Cartoon representation of the proposed inner-sphere environments of Gd3+ and Er3+ in H2O–EMIES, where n represents for the number of anions (ethyl sulfate or triflate) minus three in the inner-sphere of LnIII. These are simplified depictions for illustration: for example, ethyl sulfate can also bind to lanthanide ions in a monodentate fashion,20 and other species (such as triflate) might be bound.
