Mn₁₂ -Acetate Complexes Studied as Single Molecules.

ABSTRACT: The phenomenon of single molecule magnet (SMM) behavior of mixed valent Mn₁₂ coordination clusters of general formula [Mn^III ₈ Mn^IV ₄ O₁₂ (RCOO)₁₆ (H₂ O)₄ ] had been exemplified by bulk samples of the archetypal [Mn^III ₈ Mn^IV ₄ O₁₂ (CH₃ COO)₁₆ (H₂ O)₄ ] (4) molecule, and the molecular origin of the observed magnetic behavior has found support from extensive studies on the Mn₁₂ system within crystalline material or on molecules attached to a variety of surfaces. Here we report the magnetic signature of the isolated cationic species [Mn₁₂ O₁₂ (CH₃ COO)
