It is a crucial challenge for chemists to modulate magnetic dynamics of SMMs. Here, we successfully synthesized two 3d-4f polynuclear compounds [Co2Dy（TTTTCl）2（MeOH）]NO3.3MeOH （1） and [Co2Dy（TTTTCl）2 （MeOH）][Co（HTTTTCl）]（NO3）z-2.5MeOH＇2H20 （2）, where H3TTTTCl=2,2＇,2＂-（（（nitrilotris（ethane-2,1-diyl）） tris（azanediyl）） tris（methylene））tris-（4-chlorophenol）. On applying the approach by co-crystallization of bulky diamagnetic moiety, the effective energy barrier enhances from 401 K （1） to 536 K （2）, which are both among the highest d-f heterometallic SMMs.展开更多
The syntheses, crystal structures, magnetic and luminescent properties of three isornorphous compounds [LnIII6（,u4-O）2（C4A）2- （NO3）2（HCOO）2（CH30）2（DMF）4（CH3OH）4] （Ln = Gd （1）, Tb （2） and Dy （3）; H...The syntheses, crystal structures, magnetic and luminescent properties of three isornorphous compounds [LnIII6（,u4-O）2（C4A）2- （NO3）2（HCOO）2（CH30）2（DMF）4（CH3OH）4] （Ln = Gd （1）, Tb （2） and Dy （3）; H4C4A = p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene） are reported. These three compounds are featured with the sandwich-like units constructed by two tail-to-tail calixarene molecules and an in-between Lnm6 octahedron. The DyTM compound exhibits both single molecule magnet behavior and photoluminescence.展开更多
