Europium acetylacetonate is a coordination complex with formula Eu(C₅H₇O₂)₃. Although this anhydrous acetylacetonate complex is widely discussed,^[2] some sources suggest that it is really the dihydrate Eu(C₅H₇O₂)₃(H₂O)₂.^[3]^[4]

Upon attempted dehydration by heating under vacuum, the dihydrate converts to the oxo-cluster Eu₄O(C₅H₇O₂)₁₀. This behavior is also observed for gadolinium acetylacetonate, yttrium acetylacetonate, lanthanum acetylacetonate, and erbium acetylacetonate.^[5]

The electronic structure of the Eu³⁺
core gives the complex an unusual charge-transfer band absent in other lanthanide acetylacetonates.^[6] The photoluminescent emission lines occur near 465 (blue), 525 (green), and 579 nm (yellow), and are unusually sharp, especially the yellow doublet.^[7] Doping a blend of polyacrylate and polycarbonate with europium acetylacetonate enhances photoluminescence over a broad range of ultraviolet wavelengths.^[8] EuFOD is a substituted derivative.
