title: A rational synthetic route leading to 3d-3d'-4f heterospin systems: self-assembly processes involving heterobinuclear 3d-4f complexes and hexacyanometallates.
abstract: A novel heterospin system, [(CuL)Gd(H2O)3(Fe(CN)6)] x 4H2O, is obtained by reacting the mononuclear complex, [CuL], with gadolinium(III) nitrate, followed by the substitution of the nitrato groups with [Fe(CN)6](3-) ions (L2- = N,N'-propylenedi(3-methoxysalicylideneiminato)).
