Magneto-chiral dichroism in chiral mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) rare earth triple-decker SMMs†
Abstract
Two new chiral mixed (phthalocyaninato)(porphyrinato) rare earth triple-decker complexes with both (R)- and (S)-enantiomers were synthesized and structurally characterized. The significant magneto-chiral cross effect revealed for the dysprosium compound suggests the great potential of sandwich-type tetrapyrrole rare earth systems in the research field of magneto-chiral dichroism.
