title: Nanoscale homochiral C(3)-symmetric mixed-valence manganese cluster complexes with both ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties.
abstract: Both ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties were observed in two enantiomerically pure nanoscale manganese cluster complexes supported by chiral Schiff base ligands, each of which comprises a 22-nucleus mixed-valence manganese(II/III) supratetrahedral cluster cation and an equilateral-triangle trinuclear manganese(III) cluster anion with C(3) symmetry.
