摘要

Dysprosium complexes based on [F-Dy] or near-linear [F-Dy-F] unit are of great concern in the field of single-molecule magnets due to their large magnetic anisotropy.Here,the crystal structure and the magnetic relaxation dynamics were reported for a three-dimensional(3 D) metal-organic framework(MOF):[DyF(C2 O4)(H2 O)2]n·2 nH2 O(1),which is the unique MOF containing zig-zag [Dy-F]n chains.Magnetic susceptibility characterization reveals that 1 is one of the few 3 D MOFs which show slow magnetic relaxation under zero dc field.And the effective energy barrier of 72 K for 1 is also higher than most Dy-based 3 D MOFs.The diamagnetic ion dilution study shows that the ferromagnetic exchange couplings mainly transmitted by F-bridges in 1 contribute little to the energy barrier,but effectively suppress the quantum tunneling process and result in a smooth hysteresis loop with no waist-restricted step.
