The hunt for high-performance single-molecule magnets (SMM) revealed that lanthanide systems combining 4f- and valence-shells show magnetic bistability up to very high temperatures. We rationalize magnetism in such systems from first principles.

The geometric and electronic structures of [Mn44+Mn3+3(µ3-L2 -)3(µ3-X -(OAc) - 3(dbm) -3] (L = O, X = F, dbmH = dibenzoyl-methane) molecule has been studied by first-principles calculations. It was shown in our previous paper that the ferrimagnetic structure of Mn$^{4 + }$Mn$^{3 + }_{3}$ molecules is determined by the $\pi $ type hybridization between the $d_{z^2}$ orbitals at the three high-spin Mn$^{3 + }$ ions and the $t_{2g}$ orbitals at the Mn$^{4 + }$ ion by the $p$ orbitals at the $\mu _{3}$-L$^{2 - }$ ions. To design new Mn$^{4 + }$Mn$^{3 + }_{3}$ molecules having much more stable ferrimagnetic state, one approach is suggested. That is controlling the Mn$^{4 + }$-($\mu _{3}$-L$^{2 - })$-Mn$^{3 + }$ exchange pathways by rational variation in $\mu _{3}$-L ligands to strengthen the hybridization between Mn ions. By this ligand variation, $J_{AB}$ can be enhanced by a factor of 3. Our results should facilitate the rational synthesis of new single-molecule magnets.

Relaxation mechanisms limiting the blocking temperature for high-performance single molecule magnets (SMMs) are investigated. Best SMMs are limited by the exponential regime. Current ab initio methods can yield accurate estimations for this limit.

Erbium(III) complexes are the most interesting candidates for high-performance single molecule magnets (SMMs) just after dysprosium(III). Herein, we thoroughly explore the underrepresented class of neutral pseudo-tetrahedral erbium(III) SMMs and demonstrate their exceptional slow magnetization dynamics controlled by the Raman relaxation mechanism and the molecular magnetic memory effect in the form of a waist-restricted magnetic hysteresis loop. The influence of the coordinated TEMPO radical on the slow magnetization relaxation performance is also demonstrated and discussed.<br>

Local eight-coordination of the Dy(III) with D<sub>6h</sub> symmetry receives much expectation for high-performance single-molecule magnets (SMMs) due to the simultaneous fulfillment of the magnetic axiality and high coordination number (a requisite for the air stability). But the experimental realization is challenging due to the required restriction of six coordination atoms in the equatorial plane of the hexagonal-bipyramid, which is usually too crowded for the central Dy(III) ion. Here we show by using the hexaaza macrocyclic Schiff base ligand and fine-tuning the axial alkoxide/phenol type ligands, a family of hexagonal-bipyramidal Dy(III) complexes, namely [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L)(Cl)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O/CH<sub>3</sub>OH)]Cl <b>1</b>, [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L)(C<sub>6</sub>F<sub>5</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>(H<sub>2</sub>O)](BPh<sub>4</sub>)·<b>2</b>, [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L)(PhO)<sub>2</sub>](BPh<sub>4</sub>) <b>3</b>, [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L)(4-MeO-PhO)<sub>2</sub>](BPh<sub>4</sub>) <b>4</b>, [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L)(naPhO)<sub>2</sub>](BPh<sub>4</sub>) <b>5 </b>and [Dy<sup>III</sup>(L)(Ph<sub>3</sub>SiO)<sub>2</sub>](BPh<sub>4</sub>) <b>6</b><b> </b>, can be isolated. Among them, complexes <b>3</b>, <b>4</b> and <b>5</b> possess nearly perfect D<sub>6h</sub> local symmetry. Complex <b>4</b> shows the highest effective magnetic reversal barrier 1338 K and an open hysteresis temperature 6 K at the field sweeping rate of 1.2 mT/s, which represents a new record for D<sub>6h</sub> SMMs.
