Abstract
We report the synthesis, structure and magnetic investigations of two new Dy 3+ homoleptic ate-complexes based on different ene-diamido ligands [K(THF)2][Dy(DAD 2R)2] (R = H (1), Me (2) DAD 2R = [2,6-iPr2C6H3N-CR=CR-NC6H3iPr2-2,6 showing K + /Arene interactions. Magnetic investigations reval that both compounds exhibit a zero-field Single-Molecule Magnetic relaxation mainly governed by a Raman process.
