Single-molecule magnetism in cyclopentadienyl-dysprosium chlorides

Abstract

[Cp2Dy(thf)(μ-Cl)]2 (2) was synthesized from [Cp2Dy(μ-Cl)]n, which crystalizes as two polymorphs, with n = 2 (1a) or ∞ (1b). All three compounds show slow relaxation of magnetization, and in 2 the quantum tunnelling was found to be exchange-biased.
