One of the pathways toward luminescent single-molecule magnets (SMMs) is realized by the self-assembly of lanthanide(3+) ions with cyanido transition metal complexes. We report a novel family of emissive SMMs, {YbIII(4-pyridone)4[FeII(phen)2(CN)2]2}(CF3SO3)3·solv (solv = 2MeCN, 1·MeCN; 2AcrCN, 1·AcrCN; 2PrCN, 1·PrCN; 2MalCN·1MeOH; 1·MalCN; MeCN = acetonitrile, AcrCN = acrylonitrile, PrCN = propionitrile, MalCN = malononitrile). They are based on paramagnetic YbIII centers coordinating diamagnetic [FeII(phen)2(CN)2] metalloligands but differ in the nitrile solvents of crystallization. They exhibit a field-induced slow magnetic relaxation dominated by a Raman process, without an Orbach relaxation as indicated by AC magnetic data and the ab initio calculations. The Raman relaxation is solvent-dependent as represented by the power “n” of the BRamanTn contribution varying from 3.07(1), to 2.61(1), 2.37(1), and 1.68(4) for 1·MeCN, 1·PrCN, 1·AcrCN, and 1·MalCN, respectively, while the BRaman parameter adopts the opposite trend. This was correlated with the variation of phonon modes schemes, including the number of available vibrational modes and their energies, dependent on the increasing complexity of the applied nitrile. 1·MeCN and 1·MalCN show the additional T-independent relaxation assignable to dipole-dipole interactions as confirmed by its suppression in 1·AcrCN and 1·PrCN revealing longer Yb–Yb distances and the disappearance in the LuIII-diluted 1·MeCN@Lu. All compounds exhibit YbIII–centered near-infrared photoluminescence sensitized by organic ligands.

The single-molecule magnets (SMMs) are attracting the increasing interesting due to their potential applications in high density information storage, quantum computing, molecular spintronics, and magnetic refrigeration. This field provides scientists a possible access into the crossover of the classical and quantum world, and a wonderful model to study the fascinating magnetic properties between microscopic and macroscopic materials, such as slow magnetization relaxation and quantum tunneling effect. After the milestone discovery of the first single-molecule magnets (SMMs) Mn12ac, many new SMMs were structurally and magnetically characterized. The most studied systems are mainly traditional coordination compounds with polynuclear structures. However, for the difficulties in the control of magnetic anisotropy and exchange coupling interactions of the cluster-type molecules, Mn12ac molecule is still one of the most important SMMs with the high relaxation barrier. From 2011 [1-3], we explored an organometallic sandwich molecule, Cp*ErCOT(Cp* = pentamethylcyclopenta-dienide; COT = cyclooctatetraenide), which behaves as a single-ion magnets, into the field of molecular nanomagnets. It opened a door of SMMs to the chemists in organometallic chemistry. Recently, we found some new sandwich or half-sandwich lanthanide organometallic molecules could also show the slow relaxation of magnetization. We hope these systems can provide new understandings of slow magnetic relaxation and new clues on the design and synthesis of molecular nanomagnets.

The reactions between the bis(1,10-phenantro[5,6-b])tetrathiafulvalene triad (L) and the metallo-precursors Yb(hfac)3(H2O)2 (hfac− = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonato anion) and Dy(facam)3 (facam− = 3-trifluoro-acetyl-(+)-camphorato anion) lead to the formation of two dinuclear complexes of formula [Yb2(hfac)6(L)]·2(C7H16) ((1)·2(C7H16)) and [Dy2((+)facam)6(L)]·2(C6H14) ((2)·2(C6H14)). The X-ray structures reveal that the L triad bridges two terminal Yb(hfac)3 or Dy(facam)3 units. (1)·2(C7H16) behaved as a near infrared YbIII centered emitter and a field-induced Single-Molecule Magnet (SMM) while (2)·2(C6H14) displayed SMM behavior in both zero- and in-dc field. The magnetization mainly relaxes through a Raman process for both complexes under an optimal applied magnetic field.

Polyoxometalates are robust and versatile multidentate oxygen-donor ligands, eminently suitable for coordination to trivalent lanthanoid ions. To date, 10 very different structural families of such complexes have been found to exhibit slow magnetic relaxation due to single-molecule magnet (SMM) behaviour associated with the lanthanoid ions. These families encompass complexes with between one and four of the later lanthanoid ions: Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Yb. The lanthanoid coordination numbers vary between six and eleven and a range of coordination geometries are evident. The highest energy barrier to magnetisation reversal measured to date for a lanthanoid–polyoxometalate SMM is Ueff/kB = 73 K for the heterodinuclear Dy–Eu compound (Bu4N)8H4[DyEu(OH)2(γ-SiW10O36)2].
