New routes to high nuclearity cages: a fluoride-based hexaicosametallic manganese cage.
The reaction of MnF3 with benzotriazole (BTAH) in hot MeOH gives the Mn(III) complex [Mn26O16(OH)10(OMe)6(F)10(BTA)20(BTAH)2(MeOH)13(H2O)] which displays hysteresis and temperature-independent magnetisation relaxation at low temperature.
