Slow relaxation of the magnetization, reversible solvent exchange and luminescence in 2D anilato-based frameworks

Abstract

A series of multifunctional 2D frameworks prepared with Dy(iii) and the bromanilato ligand, formulated as: [Dy₂(C₆O₄Br₂)₃(G)_n]·nG with G = H₂O, dimethylformamide (dmf) and dimethylsulfoxide (dmso), can exchange the coordinated and non-coordinated solvent molecules (G) in a reversible way. These multifunctional frameworks show field induced slow relaxation of the magnetization and luminescence that can be easily and reversibly modified by solvent exchange.
