Fulvalene as a platform for the synthesis of a dimetallic dysprosocenium single-molecule magnet

Abstract

and Cp* ligands, with the barrier height and hysteresis properties being attenuated by the equatorial borohydride ligands. The experimental and theoretical results described in this study furnish a blueprint for the design and synthesis of poly-cationic dysprosocenium SMMs with properties that may surpass those of benchmark systems.
