Recent advances in the synthesis of 3d/4f Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs) have revealed the effective role of incorporating diamagnetic Co or Zn ions to enhance the magnetic properties of Ln ions. This concept highlights notable examples of Co/Ln and Zn/Ln SMMs documented in the recent literature, illustrating how the selection of various peripheral and/or bridging ligands can modulate the magnetic anisotropy of 4f metal ions, thereby increasing their energy barriers.

Controllable synthesis of sophisticated aggregations has attracted wide attention from scientists. In this work, homo- and heterometallic {CoCoM} ( = Co/Cd) aggregates with similar skeletons, composed of two [CoM(dpbt)] peripheries and a central [Co(OH)] vertex-fused double-cubane, were constructed from prefabricated {Co} clusters and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and XPS, ICP-MS, SEM (EDX), and so on. And then, the structure and magnetic differences of them had been further analyzed under dotted with paramagnetic Co ions and/or diamagnetic Cd ions.

Mn coordinated by orthophosphate (Pi), metabolites, or peptides acts as a superoxide dismutase (SOD), and these Mn antioxidant complexes are universally accumulated in extremely radiation-resistant cell types across the tree of life. This behavior prompted design of decapeptide DP1 (DEHGTAVMLK) as a Mn ligand, and development of a highly potent Mn-antioxidant (MDP) containing [Pi] = 25 mM, and [DP1] = 3 mM, the ratio found in the radioresistant bacterium , with [Mn] = 1 mM. MDP is an exceptional antioxidant, both in vitro and in vivo, and has reinvigorated the development of radiation-inactivated whole-cell vaccines.

To synthetically target a specific material with select performance, the underlying relationship between structure and function must be understood. For targeting magnetic properties, such understanding is underdeveloped for a relatively new class of layered hexagonal perovskites, the 12R-BaMnO family. Here, we perform a detailed magnetostructural study of the layered hexagonal perovskite materials 12R-BaMnO, where = diamagnetic Ce or paramagnetic ≈ 1/2 Pr.

A relatively unexplored approach in heterometallic chemistry of transition metals and lanthanides has been developed toward the controlled synthesis of a new family of linear heterotrinuclear Ln(III)-Pd(II)-Ln(III) complexes with the general formula [LnPd(pao)(NO)(MeOH)(HO)]·[Pd(pao)], where Ln = Dy (2), Gd (3), Er (4) and Yb (5). This strategy was based on the diamagnetic 'metalloligand' [Pd(pao)] (1), where pao is the anion of 2-pyridinealdoxime, containing two dangling oximate O-atoms which were to each other and available for binding with oxophilic lanthanide ions. Because of their -configuration, the [Pd(pao)] 'metalloligand' was able to direct the binding of two {Ln(NO)(MeOH)(HO)} units on opposite sites, thus yielding the reported trinuclear {Ln-Pd-Ln} clusters.
