In this work, the synthesis, structure, and magnetic studies of three dinuclear Dy2 compounds, namely Dy2(bpy)2(L)6 (1), Dy2(phen)2(L)6 (2), Dy2(μ-H2O)2(bpy)2(L)6 (3) are reported in detail, where HL, phen, and bpy are 4-chlorobenzoic acid, 1,10-phenanthroline, and 2,2′-bipyridine. Magnetic studies reveal the intramolecular ferromagnetic interaction and single-molecule magnetic properties of these compounds. The fine-tuned single-molecule magnet properties of compounds 1–3, mainly due to the difference of the coordination geometry of DyIII ions, are highlighted.

Single-molecule magnets involving monometallic 4f complexes have been investigated extensively in last two decades to understand the factors that govern the slow magnetization relaxation behavior in these complexes and to establish a magneto-structural correlation. The prime goal in this direction is to suppress the temperature independent quantum tunneling of magnetization (QTM) effect via fine-tuning the coordination geometry/microenvironment. Among the various coordination geometries that have been pursued, complexes containing high coordination number around Ln(III) are sparse. Herein, we present a summary of the various synthetic strategies that were used for the assembly of 10- and 12-coordinated Ln(III) complexes. The magnetic properties of such complexes are also described.

A family LnIII4 clusters were successfully synthesized and structurally characterized. Magnetic studies show that Gd4 cluster displays magnetic refrigeration, while Dy4 cluster demonstrates two distinct slow magnetic relaxation processes.

Divalent lanthanide organometallics are well known highly reducing compounds usually used for single electron transfer reactivity and small molecule activation. Thus, their very reactive nature prevented for many years the study of their physical properties, such as magnetic studies on a reliable basis. In this article, the access to rare organometallic sandwich compounds of Tm<sup>II</sup> with the cyclooctatetraenyl (Cot) ligand impacts on the use of divalent organolanthanide compounds as an additional strategy for the design of performing Single Molecule Magnets (SMM). Herein, the first divalent thulium sandwich complex with f<sup>13</sup> configuration behaving as a Single Molecule Magnet in absence of DC field is highlighted.

In this work, based on mixed N-, O-donor ligands, a series of Co(ii)-Dy(iii) compounds are synthesised and characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetic studies. These compounds include Co2(phen)2Dy(PhCOO)7 (1), Co2(phen)2Dy2(PhCOO)10 (2), Co(bpy)Dy(H2O)(CH3-PhCOO)5 (3), Co(phen)Dy(H2O)(CH3-PhCOO)5 (4), Co2(phen)2Dy(NO2-PhCOO)7 (5), Co2(phen)2Dy2(NO2-PhCOO)10 (6), and Co2(bpy)2Dy2(NO2-PhCOO)10 (7), where phen, bpy, CH3-PhCOOH, and NO2-PhCOOH are 1,10-phenanthroline, 2,2′-bipyridine, 3-methylbenzoic acid, and 3-nitrobenzoic acid, respectively. In these cases, di-, tri-, and tetranuclear Co-Dy clusters are observed. Direct current (DC) magnetic susceptibility reveals ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic behaviour, whilst dynamic magnetic studies disclose single molecule magnet (SMM)-like slow magnetic relaxation for most of these compounds.

The complexes [Dy2(tta)6(H2SQ)] (Dy-H2SQ) and [Dy2(tta)6(Q)]·2CH2Cl2 (Dy-Q) (tta− = 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetonate) were obtained from the coordination reaction of the Dy(tta)3·2H2O units with the 2,2′-benzene-1,4-diylbis(6-hydroxy-4,7-di-tert-butyl-1,3-benzodithiol-2-ylium-5-olate ligand (H2SQ) and its oxidized form 2,2′-cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-diylidenebis(4,7-di-tert-butyl-1,3-benzodithiole-5,6-dione (Q). The chemical oxidation of H2SQ in Q induced an increase in the coordination number from 7 to 8 around the DyIII ions and by consequence a modulation of the field-induced Single-Molecule Magnet behavior. Computational results rationalized the magnetic properties of each of the dinuclear complexes.

Magnetic studies on nine new octanuclear cyclic heterotrimetallic complexes reveal that in comparison with analogous octanuclear complexes [Ni4Dy2M2] (M3+ = Fe, W and Co), the [Ni4Dy2Cr2] species show the highest energy barrier and the [Ni4Tb2M2] (M = Cr or Fe) complexes display single-molecule magnetic properties.

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.
