Résumé

The careful monitoring of crystallization conditions of a mixture made of a Tb building block and a substituted nitronyl-nitroxide that typically provides infinite coordination polymers (), affords a remarkably stable linear hexanuclear molecule made of six Tb ions and five NIT radicals. The are double-bridged by water molecules but calculations demonstrate that this bridge is inefficient in mediating any magnetic interaction other than a small dipolar antiferromagnetic coupling. Surprisingly the , despite being finite molecules, show a single-chain magnet (SCM) behavior. This results in a magnetic hysteresis at low temperature whose coercive field is almost doubled when compared to the . We thus demonstrate that finite linear molecules can display SCM magnetic relaxation, which is a strong asset for molecular data storage purposes because 1D magnetic relaxation is more robust than the relaxation mechanisms observed in single-molecule magnets (SMMs) where under-barrier magnetic relaxation can operate.
