Pentagonal-bipyramid Ln(III) complexes exhibiting single-ion-magnet behavior: A rational synthetic approach for a rigid equatorial plane
Résumé
A pentadentate chelating ligand is employed for the facile synthesis of air-stable pentagonal-bipyramid Ln(III) complexes with a rigid equatorial plane. The Dy(III) analogue exhibits single-ion-magnet behavior with Ueff/kB = 70 K under Hdc = 500 Oe.
