In the present work we present a comprehensive study of the magneto-structural correlations of a series of ferromagnetic triply heterobridged Cu(II) dinuclear compounds containing [Cu(2)(mu-O(2)CR)(mu-OH)(mu-X)(L)(2)](2+) ions (where X = OH(2), Cl(-), OMe(-) and L = bpy, phen, dpyam) which have the particularity of being all ferromagnetic. The present theoretical study, based on hybrid density functional theory (DFT) calculations, leads to strong conclusions about the role of the pentacoordination geometry of the Cu(II) ions (square base pyramidal (SP) or trigonal bipyramidal (TBP) coordination) and the nature of the third bridging ligand in determining the final value of the magnetic coupling constants in this series of compounds. These investigations point toward the existence of a maximum value for the ferromagnetic interaction and may offer some useful information to synthetic chemists aiming at obtaining new compounds with enhanced ferromagnetism.

Article Synopsis
- A novel rare-earth reduction system allows trivalent yttrium and dysprosium to behave as if they were in a divalent state, utilizing specific bridged dimers for reactions.
- The system effectively reduces various N-heterocycles, producing different rare-earth complexes with the ligands in varying reduced states.
- The dynamic magnetic properties revealed that while one dysprosium compound acts as a single-molecule magnet (SMM) with a notable energy barrier, others do not exhibit SMM characteristics due to factors like crystal field competition and ligand interactions.

We present a bifunctional heptanuclear cobalt(II)/cobalt(III) molecular complex formulated as [Co(μ-OH)(HL)(HL)](NO)·6HO () (where HL is 2,2'-(((1E,1'E)-((2-hydroxy-5-methyl-1,3-phenylene)bis(methanylylidene))bis(azanylylidene))bis(propane-1,3-diol)) and HL is 2-amino-1,3-propanediol). Compound has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis along with other spectral and magnetic measurements. Structural analysis indicates that contains a mixed-valence Co cluster where a central Co(II) ion is connected to six different Co centers (four Co and two Co ions) by four μ-OH groups, giving rise to a planar heptanuclear cluster that resembles a molecular fragment of a layered double hydroxide (LDH).

The finite Berry curvature in topological materials can induce many subtle phenomena, such as the anomalous Hall effect (AHE), spin Hall effect (SHE), anomalous Nernst effect (ANE), non-linear Hall effect (NLHE) and bulk photovoltaic effects. To explore these novel physics as well as their connection and coupling, a precise and effective model should be developed. Here, we propose such a versatile model-a 3D triangular lattice with alternating hopping parameters, which can yield various topological phases, including kagome bands, triply degenerate fermions, double Weyl semimetals and so on.

We report an unexpected rearrangement, controlled by the nature of the bridge, leading to the formation of novel, remarkably stable triply fused dinickel(II)/dicopper(II) chlorin-porphyrin dication diradical heterodimers in excellent yields. Here, a dipyrromethene bridge gets completely fused between two porphyrin macrocycles with two new C-C and one C-N bonds. The two macrocycles exhibit extensive π-conjugation through the bridge, which results in an antiferromagnetic coupling between the two π-cation radicals.
