Abstract

A linear trinuclear ferrous complex [FeII3(pymp)4(MeOH)2][BPh4]2·2MeOH (1) (Hpymp = 2-[(pyridine-2-ylimine)-methyl]phenol) was isolated and characterized both structurally and magnetically. A magnetic study revealed the ferromagnetic coupling (J = +3.54 cm−1) within the [FeII3] units and uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (D = −1.21 cm−1) of the molecule. Slow relaxation of the magnetization at below 5 K and an effective energy barrier of 26.0(2) cm−1 under a 1200 Oe applied dc field were evidenced. Moreover, clear magnetic hysteresis loops were observed at below 2.5 K, which further corroborated the single-molecule magnet behavior of 1.
