The title compound, [Eu(III)(NO(3))(2)(C(24)H(28)Cl(2)N(6)O(2))]NO(3)·0.5CH(3)OH, is isostructural with the Gd(III) and Ho(III) complexes of the analogous macrocyclic ligand, with both Cl atoms replaced by methyl groups. The Eu atom exhibits a nine-coordinate distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic coordination geometry. The methanol solvent mol-ecule is disordered about a twofold rotation axis ...
