Cover Feature: Dinuclear Dysprosium Compounds: The Importance of Rigid Bridges (Chem. Eur. J. 7/2025)
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The Cover Feature shows the influence of different bridging units between two DyIII ions on the magnetic coupling and dynamic behaviour. The peroxo-bridge is rigid because the O−O bond leads to a longer inter-Dy distance resulting in antiferromagnetic coupling and slow relaxation of magnetisation characteristic of an SMM. The bis-fluoride bridges are floppy as there is no connection between the two bridging atoms. This compound is ferromagnetically coupled but shows no SMM behaviour. The rigidity clearly influences the dynamic behaviour likely as a result of different spin–phonon coupling. More information can be found in the Research Article by M. Perfetti, J. Bendix, A. K. Powell and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202403002).
