title: Lanthanide based coordination polymers chill, relax under magnetic field and also fluoresce.
abstract: Three lanthanide one-dimensional coordination polymers, obtained using Ln(3+) salts and croconate dianion, were structurally characterized. Magnetic studies reveal that the gadolinium analogue exhibits a large magnetocaloric effect while single-molecule magnet behaviour is observed in the dysprosium analogue.
