Dinuclear rare-earth (Tb III ,Y III )t riple-decker complexes with af used diporphyrin (FP) and two tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) ligands were synthesized in neutral, dianionic, and diprotonated forms.T he neutralf orms have large open shell biradical character,a sd etermined from the temperature dependency of the magnetic susceptibility measurements and theoretical calculations. The coupling value (J = À1.4 kcal mol À1 , À487 cm À1 )o ft he radical centersi nt he neutral form of the Y III complex indicates weak pairing interactions. Theoreticalc alculations on the neutralf orm reveal as ignificant biradical character (y = 68 %). Furthermore, the Tb III complex exhibits multi-redox states, having more than eight clear peaks in the voltammetry curves. The optical (3700 nm, 0.33 eV)a nd electrochemical measurements (3400nm, 0.36 eV) indicate that the neutral form has very small HOMO-LUMO energy gap. Despitet he large biradical character, the neutral complexes are thermally stable and do not decompose on heatingat 120 8C. These complexes with unique characteristics are promising candidates for use in molecular electronics,o ptics, and spintronics.Supporting information and the ORCID identification number(s) for the author(s) of this articlecan be found under: https://doi.
