a X-ray crystal structure (top-down view). For clarity, all hydrogen atoms except those involved in hydrogen bonding and a disorder component of the amide arm are omitted (where shown, thermal displacement ellipsoids are drawn at 50% probability). N-H and O-H hydrogen atoms were located in the difference Fourier map and (O1)H is 50% occupied on a crystallographic special position. Atom colours: La = green; oxygen = red; nitrogen = blue; carbon = silver; hydrogen = grey. b DFT structure showing non-covalent interactions. NCI attractive hydrogen bond interactions are represented as blue disks. Atom colours: La = green; oxygen = red; nitrogen = blue; carbon = silver; hydrogen = grey.
