Lanthanide(III)-Based Single-Ion Magnets

Mononuclear lanthanide-based single-ion magnets (SIMs) are known since 2003 with the discovery of SIM properties in a bis-(phthalocyaninato)­lanthanide complex. A recent report on [Dy­(Cpttt)2]­[BC6F5] indicating that it exhibits the highest known blocking temperature (60 K) has spurred fresh intere...

Description
Summary:Mononuclear lanthanide-based single-ion magnets (SIMs) are known since 2003 with the discovery of SIM properties in a bis-(phthalocyaninato)­lanthanide complex. A recent report on [Dy­(Cpttt)2]­[BC6F5] indicating that it exhibits the highest known blocking temperature (60 K) has spurred fresh interest in this area. In this article, we discuss about the various requirements of lanthanide-based SIMs along with representative examples. Specifically, we describe the complexes whose coordination numbers vary from 2 to 8. We also discuss the representative examples of organometallic lanthanide complexes that can function as molecular magnets.
