Abstract 3d–4f heterometallic discrete complexes have enjoyed increasing attraction in
recent decades because of their potential advantages to create new single-molecule …

The phenomenon of single-molecule magnetism was established in the early 1990s with the
cluster [Mn 12 O 12 (AcO) 16 (H 2 O) 4]. Since then, a large number of compounds …

We report now the first single molecule magnet (SMM) consisting of d− f elements. The
present study demonstrates that the synthesis of the d− f polynuclear molecule is a very …

The two-volume Encyclopedia of Supramolecular Chemistry offers authoritative, centralized
information on a rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field. User-friendly and high-quality …

The first family of rare-earth-based single chain magnets is presented. Compounds of
general formula [M (hfac) 3 (NITPhOPh)], where M= Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, or Yb, and …

The cyano-bridged trinuclear compound,(NEt4)[Mn2 (salmen) 2 (MeOH) 2Fe (CN)
6](1)(salmen2-= rac-N, N '-(1-methylethylene) bis (salicylideneiminate)), reported previously …

Polynuclear coordination clusters have become of particular interest in recent times as a
result of their relevance to bioinorganic chemistry and to the special area of molecule-based …

A brief survey is provided of single-molecule magnets (SMMs), or molecular nanomagnets.
The [Mn12O12 (O2CR) 16 (H2O) 4](Mn12; R= various) family of SMMs continues to be the …

We report the synthesis of the first well-documented example of a cyano-bridged single-
molecule magnet. An assembly reaction parallel to that employed in producing the trigonal …

For single-molecule magnet (SMM) behavior, molecular clusters require Ising
magnetoanisotropy (Dmol< 0) and a large ground-state spin multiplicity.[1] These …
