Abstract

The synthesis and crystal structures of two isostructural Mn(III)Ln(III) pivalates (Ln = Gd, Dy) are reported; magnetic data are presented for [Mn2Gd2O2(O2CCMe3)8(HO2CCMe3)2(MeOH)2], the susceptibility behaviour being dominated by strong antiferromagnetic coupling between the di-µ-oxo-bridged Mn(III) centres; this complex represents the first reported example of ferromagnetic coupling between Mn and Gd in a discrete polynuclear complex.
