Attempting to understand (and control) the relationship between structure and magnetism in an extended family of Mn6 single-molecule magnets†
Abstract
The synthesis and characterisation of a large family of hexametallic [MnIII6] Single-Molecule Magnets of general formula [MnIII6O2(R-sao)6(X)2(sol)4–6] (where R = H, Me, Et; X = −O2CR′ (R′ = H, Me, Ph etc) or Hal−; sol =
