Abstract
As a starting point, a new 3D porous framework with the {[CoL]·0.5DMF·H2O}n chemical formula (where L = 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoate) is described. Its performance as a single molecule magnet was explored. The study of magnetic properties reveals that Co-MOF shows no frequency-fdependant alternating current (ac) signals under zero direct current (dc) magnetic field, whereas single-molecule magnet behaviour is achieved when CoII ions are diluted in a ZnII based matrix. Interestingly, this strategy renders a bifunctional [CoxZn1-xL]n material that is also characterized by a strong photoluminescent emitting capacity.
