Binuclear complexes with general formula [Ln(hfac)(HO)(dppnTEMPO)] (Ln = Gd, Tb, and Dy) have been obtained using the paramagnetic ligand 1-piperidinyl-4-[(diphenylphosphinyl)amino]-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl (dppnTEMPO) as a bridge. One of the lanthanide ions is ferromagnetically coupled with the TEMPO moiety. Two of the complexes (Dy and Tb) show slow relaxation of the magnetization, and the non-magneto-equivalence of the two Ln ions was clearly observed. The ab initio CASSCF calculations were employed to confirm this behavior, as well as to rationalize the Ln-Rad interaction. The simulations of the magnetic properties were allowed by the insights given by the calculations. The inequivalence of the Tb ions was also proved by emission spectroscopy.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
