Abstract

We prepared three structurally related Mn3 IIIMn 2 II complexes that possess S ≈ 1-11 spin ground states as a result of variations in the geometry and identity of μ 2-η 11 bridging groups. These complexes function as single-molecule magnets yet demonstrate other interesting behavior such as quasi-classical magnetization hysteresis and comparable magnetization reversal barriers (Ueff).
