Abstract

Time-domain synchrotron Mössbauer spectroscopy (SMS) based on the Mössbauer effect of 161 Dy has been used to investigate the magnetic properties of a DyIII -based single-molecule magnet (SMM). The magnetic hyperfine field of [Dy(Cy3 PO)2 (H2 O)5 ]Br3 ⋅2 (Cy3 PO)⋅2 H2 O⋅2 EtOH is with B0 =582.3(5) T significantly larger than that of the free-ion DyIII with a 6 H15/2 ground state. This difference is attributed to the influence of the coordinating ligands on the Fermi contact interaction between the s and 4f electrons of the DyIII ion. This study demonstrates that 161 Dy SMS is an effective local probe of the influence of the coordinating ligands on the magnetic structure of Dy-containing compounds.
