Abstract

The synthesis and characterisation of a large family of hexametallic [MnIII6] Single-Molecule Magnets of general formula [MnIII6O2(R-sao)6(X)2(sol)4–6] (where R = H, Me, Et; X = O2CR′ (R′ = H, Me, Ph etc) or Hal; sol = EtOH, MeOH and/or H2O) are presented. We show how deliberate structural distortions of the [Mn3O] trinuclear moieties within the [Mn6] complexes are used to tune their magnetic properties. These findings highlight a qualitative magneto-structural correlation whereby the type (anti- or ferromagnetic) of each Mn2 pairwise magnetic exchange is dominated by the magnitude of each individual Mn-N-O-Mn torsion angle. The observation of magneto-structural correlations on such large polymetallic complexes is rare and represents one of the largest studies of this kind.
