Ever since the discovery that certain manganese clusters retain their magnetisation for
months at low temperatures, there has been intense interest in molecular nanomagnets …

Lanthanide compounds show much higher energy barriers to magnetic relaxation than 3d-
block compounds, and this has led to speculation that they could be used in molecular …

The actinide elements are attractive alternatives to transition metals or lanthanides for the
design of exchange-coupled multinuclear single-molecule magnets. However, the synthesis …

A series of compounds [ADyL4]·[solvent] composed of a dysprosium (III) ion coordinated by
four chelated naphthyridine-like ligands (L= 4-hydroxy-8-methyl-1, 5-naphthyridine-3 …

A molecular dysprosium (III) complex [Dy (DClQ) 3 (H2O) 2](1) was used as a building unit
for the construction of lanthanide SMMs, leading to the isolation of two dinuclear Dy (III) …

An asymmetrical dysprosium trimer with a molecular formula of [Dy3 (hq) 7 (hqH)(NO3) 2
(H2O)] was obtained through a reflux reaction employing as starting material Dy (NO3) 3 …

A new family of lanthanide complexes,[Ln2 (hfac) 4L2](Ln= Eu (1), Gd (2), Tb (3), Dy (4), Ho
