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.

ABSTRACTWe report high frequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) investigations of a series of high spin (total spin up to S = 10) manganese and nickel complexes which have been shown to exhibit single molecule magnetism, including low temperature (below ∼ 1K) hysteresis loops and resonant magnetic quantum tunneling. A cavity perturbation technique enables high sensitivity oriented single crystal EPR measurements spanning a very wide frequency range (16 to 200+ GHz). Fitting of the frequency and field orientation dependence of EPR spectra allows direct determination of the effective spin Hamiltonian parameters. Studies on a range of materials with varying (approximately axial) site symmetries facilitates an assessment of the role of transverse anisotropy (terms in the Hamiltonian that do not commute with ŝz) in the magnetic quantum tunneling phenomenon.
