Solid state reaction between La (Ac)3·3/2H2O and 8-hydroxyquinoline (Oxine)was studied at a low heating temperature. La (Oxine)3 was synthesized by one step solid state reaction at 60℃, and the product is characterized by elementary analysis, IR, XRD,photoacoustic spectra and flourenscence spectra. The influence of the temperature on solid state reaction was discussed.
