Chemiluminescence of Pr3+ is observed upon decomposition of adamantylideneadamantane-1,2-dioxetane (AAD) catalysed by β-diketonates Pr(L)3 (L = fod or dpm), the excitation of Pr3+ occurring through intracomplex energy transfer from the excited adamantanone formed upon decomposition of AAD in the complex Pr(L)3·AAD.
