## Abstract Complexation of the lanthanides Eu^3+^, Gd^3+^, and Tb^3+^ with 1,4,7,10‐tetrakis(carboxymethyl)‐1,4,7,10‐tetraazacyclododecane (dota) has been studied in solution by using potentiometry, luminescence spectrometry, and EXAFS. Three series of successive complexes were characterized by at
