Abstract
As a monoatomic bridge, fluoride ion can transmit efficient magnetic interaction between lanthanide ions but its effect on tuning the magnetization dynamics has not been well understood. Herein, two monofluoride-bridged dinuclear dysprosium complexes [Dy2F(bbpen)2(EtOH)2]Br·EtOH (1) and [Dy2F(bbppy)2]Br·2EtOH (2) with Dy-F-Dy angles of ∼178° and their diamagnetic-ion diluted analogues 1´ and 2´ were synthesized. Magnetic studies reveal that 1 and 1´ barely show any magnetization dynamics, but 2 and 2´ exhibit strong magnetization dynamics. Systematical experimental analysis combined with ab initio calculations reveals that the different magnetization dynamics between 1 and 2 mainly originate from the effect of magnetic anisotropy by terminal ligand and bridging group of the chelating ligand, and the fluoride bridge can effectively suppress the quantum tunneling of the magnetization and turn on Orbach process in 2.
