Abstract

The first use of N-salicylidene-o-aminophenol in 3d/4f chemistry has led to Mn(III)(4)Dy(III)(5) and Mn(III)(4)Dy(III)(3) clusters with unprecedented metal topologies and stoichiometries; both compounds exhibit out-of-phase signals indicative of the slow magnetization relaxation of a single-molecule magnet.
