Abstract
<p indent=0mm>Molecular magnetic materials, assembled by spin carriers and organic ligands, are a class of compounds with specific magnetic properties. The [Mo(CN)<sub>7</sub>]<sup>4−</sup> building block with a trivalent Mo<sup>III</sup> center has unique significance in this area. On one hand, strong magnetic coupling between the Mo<sup>III</sup> spin and other metal ions through the bridging cyanide groups is promising for the preparation of high <italic>T</italic><sub>c</sub> magnets. On the other hand, the strong magnetic anisotropy, arising from both the single-ion magnetic anisotropy of the Mo<sup>III</sup> center and also the strong anisotropic exchange interaction between other metal centers, provides new ideas for the construction of molecular nanomagnets. In this review, we summarized the research progress in the [Mo(CN)<sub>7</sub>]<sup>4−</sup>-based molecular magnetic materials, including high-dimensional magnets, low-dimensional magnets and guest-switchable magnetic materials. Prospects of future studies in this specific field are also proposed.
