Unveiling the Werner-Type Cluster Chemistry of Heterometallic 4f/Post-Transition Metals: A {Dy₃Bi₈} Complex Exhibiting Quantum Tunneling Steps in the Hysteresis Loops and its 1-D Congener.

ABSTRACT: A new [Dy₃Bi₈O₆Cl₃(saph)₉] (1) Werner-type cluster has been prepared, which is the first Dy^III/Bi^III polynuclear compound with no metal-metal bond and one of the very few Ln^III-Bi^III (Ln = lanthanide) heterometallic complexes reported to date. The molecular compound 1 has been deliberately transformed to its 1-D analogue [Dy₃Bi₈O₆(N₃)₃(saph)₉]_n (2) via the replacement of the terminal Cl^- ions by end-to-end bridging N₃^- groups. The overall metallic skeleton of 1 (and 2) can be described as consisting of a diamagnetic {Bi₈} unit with an elon
