Abstract

The structures and magnetic properties of a series of hexacyanometalate-based trinuclear complexes with linear or bent geometries is analyzed with an orbital-dependent extended Heisenberg Hamiltonian. The absence of SMM behavior is shown to be due to the large angular distortions of the hexacyanoferrate centers.
