A series of lanthanide dinitrosalicylates M₃Ln(3,5-NO₂-Sal)₃ · nH₂O (Ln = Eu, Gd; M = Li, Na, K, Cs) was synthesized. It was found that the luminescence efficiency of some M₃Eu(3,5-NO₂-Sal)₃ · nH₂O compounds was near to the high efficiency of europium dibenzoylmethanate with 1,10-phenanthroline, Eu(DBM)₃ · Phen. The luminescence excitation spectra, electron-vibrational luminescence spectra, and vibrational IR spectra were investigated. The energy of the lowest excited triplet state of the ligand was obtained from phosphorescence spectra of M₃Gd(3,5-NO₂-Sal)₃ · nH₂O, M(3,5-NO₂-HSal) · nH₂O, and M₂(3,5-NO₂-Sal) · nH₂O. The details of the structure of compounds were discussed. The influence of different M-cations on the Eu³⁺ luminescence efficiency and on the processes of excitation energy transfer to a Eu³⁺ ion was analyzed. The presence of large alkali metal cations in lanthanide dinitrosalicylates and an increase in the temperature weaken the network of hydrogen bonds and, to some extent, the “ligand–metal” bonds. This is a cause of a long-wavelength shift of the intraligand charge transfer (ILCT) band in Eu³⁺ excitation spectra arising at inclusion of Cs⁺ instead of Li⁺ cations in the crystal lattice and at the heating of compounds. A change of the energies of ligand electronic states at substitution of Li⁺ and Na⁺ for Cs⁺ can give a tenfold enhancement of the Eu³⁺ luminescence efficiency at 300 K.
