A dodecanuclear heterometallic dysprosium-cobalt wheel exhibiting single-molecule magnet behaviour

Chem Commun (Camb). 2011 Aug 14;47(30):8659-61. doi: 10.1039/c1cc12405f.

Abstract

A novel dodecanuclear wheel with ten Dy(III) ions and two Co(II) ions bridged by four Schiff-base ligands and sixteen acetates represents the highest-nuclearity 3d-4f example of its type displaying single-molecule magnet behaviour.
