Slow Magnetization Relaxation in Unprecedented Mn^III₄Dy^III₃ and Mn^III₄Dy^III₅ Clusters from the Use of <i>N</i>-Salicylidene-<i>o</i>-aminophenol

Abstract

The first use of N-salicylidene-o-aminophenol in 3d/4f chemistry has led to Mn(III)(4)Dy(III)(5) and Mn(III)(4)Dy(III)(3) clusters with unprecedented metal topologies and stoichiometries; both compounds exhibit out-of-phase signals indicative of the slow magnetization relaxation of a single-molecule magnet.
