Abstract

A large [Mn10Na]4 loop-of-loops aggregate was prepared from the use of 1,3-propanediol (pdH2) in manganese carboxylate chemistry. It is constructed from four [Mn10(mu3-O)2(O2CMe)13(pd)6(py)2]- loops linked through Na+ ions and exhibits a saddlelike topology. Magnetic characterization showed that the Mn10 loop has an S approximately 4 ground-state spin and displays frequency-dependent in-phase and out-of-phase alternating current signals and also hysteresis loops that, however, are not typical of single-molecule magnets because of the existence of intermolecular interactions between the Mn10 units.
