Abstract:
The reaction of [Mn3O(OAc)6(py)3] with 1,1,1-tris(hydroxymethyl)ethane (H3thme) gives the Mn(IV)3Mn(III)4Mn(II)2 complex [Mn9O7(OAc)11(thme)(py)3(H2O)2], which has an S = 17/2 ground state and displays strong out-of-phase signals in ac susceptibility studies that establish it as a new class of single-molecule magnet.
