Reversible ON-OFF switching of single-molecule-magnetism associated with single-crystal-to-single-crystal structural transformation of a decanuclear dysprosium phosphonate.

ABSTRACT: {Dy₅(EDDC)₂(μ₃-AcO)₂(μ₅-C₁₅H₁₁PO₃)(μ₄-C₁₅H₁₁PO₃)(μ₂-AcO)₂(AcO)₂(H₂O)(CH₃OH)₂}₂(μ₄-C₂O₄)·xH₂O (I), where H₂EDDC is N',N'',E,N',N'',E-N',N''-(ethane-1,2-diylidene)dipyrazine-2-carbohydrazide and C₁₅H₁₁PO₃H₂ is 9-anthrylmethylphosphonic acid, is found to undergo two consecutive single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations. The first is under UV irradiation (λ = 365 nm for 3 d in air) to {Dy₅(EDDC)₂
