Recent developments in single-molecule toroics

An update overview of emerging single-molecule toroics (SMTs) is expounded to elucidate the strategy to design SMTs and ultimately inspire the seeking of SMTs with enhanced toroidal moment.

A series of dysprosium-based hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (Dy–HOFs): thermally triggered off → on conversion of a single-ion magnet

A series of dysprosium-based HOFs (Dy–HOFs) were designed and synthesized for the first time under solvothermal conditions. Herein, we achieved the magnetic off → on SIM switching of Dy–HOFs under thermal driving conditions.

Formation of nanocluster {Dy12} containing Dy-exclusive vertex-sharing [Dy4(μ3-OH)4] cubanes via simultaneous multitemplate guided and step-by-step assembly

The formation of high-nuclearity clusters of lanthanide usually involved many complicated self-assembly processes. Thus, tracking the formation process is extremely difficult and research on the assembly mechanism is very rare.
