Abstract

Molecules which exhibit a macroscopically measurable slow relaxation of their magnetization are named single molecule magnets (SMMs). SMMs mainly including transition meatal SMMs (TM-SMMs) and lanthanide SMMs (Ln-SMMs) have received much attention in recent years as they can behave as quantum objects showing potential applications covering quantum computing, high-density data storage devices and spintronics. This review highlights the recent breakthroughs in the field of SMMs with special focus on synthetic strategies towards high-performance SMMs.
