A series of di-, tri- and tetranuclear lanthanide clusters with slow magnetic relaxation for Dy2 and Dy4†
Abstract
A series of dinuclear, trinuclear and tetranuclear lanthanide complexes, formulated as [Nd2(Acc)6(H2O)4]3 [Nd2(Acc)6(H2O)6]·Cl24·8H2O (1), [Dy2(Acc)4(H2O)8]·Cl6·5.89H2O (2), [Ln3(Acc)10(H2O)6]·(ClO4)9·4H2O (Ln = La, (3); Nd, (4)) and [Ln4(μ3-OH)4(Acc)6(H2O)7(ClO4)] ·(ClO4)7·11H2O (Ln = Dy, (5); Yb, (6)), have been synthesized through the reaction of 1-amino cyclohexanel-
