Slow relaxation of magnetization in a {Fe6Dy} complex deriving from a family of highly symmetric metallacryptands

Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of a new family of isostructural {Fe6Ln} complexes, (pipH)3{Fe6Ln(shiH)3(shi)6}·1.5 pip·xH2O (Ln = Gd (1), Dy (2), Tb (3) and Y (4), pip = piperidine, and shi3− = salicylhydroxamic acid) is reported. The resulting compounds possess an exceptionally unique structure of a metallacrown-like motif while the overall complexes feature more the structure of metallacryptates. Magnetic studies are reported and reveal that the {Fe6Dy} analogue belongs to the single-molecule magnet (SMM) family.
