Abstract
AbstractA new family of heptanuclear lanthanide complex [Ln7(L)2(LH)4(dbm)5(OH)2(CH3OH)4]⋅xCHCl3⋅yCH3OH⋅zH2O {Ln=TbIII (1), DyIII (2) and ErIII (3) and LH3=(E)‐2‐(hydroxymethyl)‐6‐(((2‐hydroxyphenyl) imino) methyl)‐4‐methylphenol} [in 1, x=6, y=3, z=3; in 2, x=5, y=1, z=6; and in 3, x=4, z=2] has been prepared in presence of lanthanide chloride(III) salts and β‐diketonate co‐ligand dibenzoylmethane (dbm). Single crystal XRD reveals heptanuclear ensemble formed by collective action of two fully deprotonated [L]3− ligands, four double deprotonated [LH]2−, two μ3‐OH− ligands, five anionic [dbm]− β‐diketonate co‐ligands and two terminal methanol solvent molecules. This heptanuclear unit comprises of two [Dy4(μ2‐O)5(μ3‐OH)]+6 core sharing a common metal vertex Dy1 through which centre of inversion has passed for overall molecule. All the complexes have been magnetically characterized and dynamic AC magnetic studies reveals slow relaxation of magnetism present in dysprosium analogue (2).
