Two dinuclear dysprosium complexes of 1 and 2 have been synthesized and both of them exhibit SMM behavior. The energy barrier is enhanced ca. 35 K by elaborately tuning the backbones of the ligands.

A dichlorido-bridged dinuclear dysprosium(III) single-molecule magnet [Dy<sub>2</sub>L<sub>2</sub>(<i>µ</i>-Cl)<sub>2</sub>(THF)<sub>2</sub>] has been made using a diamine-bis(phenolate) ligand, H<sub>2</sub>L. Magnetic studies show an energy barrier for magnetization reversal (<i>U</i><sub>eff</sub>) around 1000 K. Exchange-biasing effect is clearly seen in magnetic hysteresis with steps up to 4 K. <i>Ab</i> initio calculations exclude the possibility of pure dipolar origin of this effect leading to the conclusion that super-exchange <i>via</i> the chloride bridging ligands is important.

We report a six coordinate DyIII single-molecule magnet<br>(SMM) with an energy barrier of 1110 K for thermal relaxation of<br>magnetization. The sample shows no retention of magnetization<br>even at 2 K and this led us to find a good correlation between the<br>blocking temperature and the Raman relaxation regime for SMMs.<br>The key parameter is the relaxation time (𝜏<sub>switch</sub>) at the point where<br>the Raman relaxation mechanism becomes more important than<br>Orbach.

Polyoxometalates are robust and versatile multidentate oxygen-donor ligands, eminently suitable for coordination to trivalent lanthanoid ions. To date, 10 very different structural families of such complexes have been found to exhibit slow magnetic relaxation due to single-molecule magnet (SMM) behaviour associated with the lanthanoid ions. These families encompass complexes with between one and four of the later lanthanoid ions: Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Yb. The lanthanoid coordination numbers vary between six and eleven and a range of coordination geometries are evident. The highest energy barrier to magnetisation reversal measured to date for a lanthanoid–polyoxometalate SMM is Ueff/kB = 73 K for the heterodinuclear Dy–Eu compound (Bu4N)8H4[DyEu(OH)2(γ-SiW10O36)2].

The synthesis and magnetic characterisation of four new heterometallic {CrIII2DyIII2} complexes 2–5 are described. The present work follows on from a recently isolated complex [CrIII2DyIII2(OMe)2(O2CPh)4(mdea)2(NO3)2] (1) (mdeaH2 = N-methyldiethanolamine), which displayed impressive single molecule magnet (SMM) properties, notably highly coercive magnetic hysteresis loops below 3.5 K. Compounds 1–5 all display a planar butterfly type metallic core arrangement, with the DyIII ions occupying the central body positions and the CrIII ion the outer wing positions. The core is stabilized by the amine–diolate, and carboxylate bridging ligands. Variation of the amine–diolate ligand resulted in several structural analogues which maintain the same metallic core, but differ from the parent 1 in the outer ligand coordination environment. Magnetic studies reveal complexes 2–5 also display SMM behaviour, unambiguously confirmed via low temperature magnetic hysteresis loops, each displaying wide coercive fields, a rare occurrence for lanthanoid-based SMMs.

Since the discovery of Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) in 1993 there has been extensive interest in understanding, developing and tuning the nature of magnetic interactions within SMMs with the intention of gaining greater insight into the nature of these interactions.[1] Typically this is done synthetically using variations in ligand geometry and co-ordination environment to vary magnetic behaviour. More recently it has been demonstrated that high hydrostatic pressure are also an effective mechanism for "tuning" properties such as magnetic susceptibility in a variety of SMMs.[2] The number of studies utilising high hydrostatic pressure to investigate molecular magnetism is extremely limited due to their inherent difficulty however we report a new study investigating the pressure tunabilty of Re(IV) based SMMs. 4d and 5d metal ions such as Re are of interest due their enhanced magnetic exchanges relative to their 3d analogues and Re(IV) based complexes are of particular interest. Previous studies into [ReX6]2-(X = Cl, Br and I) anions demonstrate significant antiferromagnetic coupling, not transmitted through chemical interactions but rather through weak Re-X...X interactions in the solid state which may be easily perturbed at high pressure. [3] Therefore we report an investigation into the tunability of magnetic susceptibility in a variety of [ReX4] based compounds using high pressure magnetic susceptibility measurements and correlate the results with structure observations taken from high pressure single crystal X-ray diffraction experiments. The effects of the removal of solvent trapped in the lattice using temperature and vacuum and the corresponding effect on magnetic behaviour and chemical structure are also reported.
