Investigation of magneto-structural correlation based on a series of seven-coordinated β-diketone Dy(iii) single-ion magnets with C2v and C3v local symmetry

Four field-induced single-ion magnets based on seven-coordinated Dy(iii) complexes have been prepared to explore the magnetism–structure relationship.

The effect of additional methyl on the magnetic relaxation and toroidal moment of Dy6 complex

A new μ₄-O bridged Dy₆ complex has been successfully synthesized by using methyl modified Schiff-base ligand, which shows SMM behaviour with a non-ignorable QTM and SMT behaviour with a large conventional magnetization.
