Abstract:Since the discovery of Mn12-acetate in the early 80s and the subsequent determination of its single molecule magnet (SMM) characteristics, interest in the area of large metal clusters, particularly Mn cluster chemistry, has continued to grow. To date, several SMMs have been identified including Fe8, V4, Mn4 and Mn12 clusters but it has been found that Mn clusters often possess large values of ground state spin -an important requirement for SMM behaviour. Our group is interested in the synthesis of new Mn clust… Show more
