title: Probing the magnetic properties of three interconvertible redox states of a single-molecule magnet with magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy.
abstract: The hysteresis of magnetization of the anionic, neutral, and cationic forms of a bis(phthalocyaninato)terbium-based complex ([Pc(2)Tb](-/0/+)) have been determined using magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectroscopy in frozen dilute solutions at low temperatures (1.5 K) showing that the three oxidation states of the complex exhibit single-molecule magnetic behaviors.
