title: An unprecedented decanuclear Gd(III) cluster for magnetic refrigeration.
abstract: An unprecedented decanuclear Gd(III) cluster composed of the [Gd10(μ3-OH)8](22+) core has been hydrothermally synthesized. Magnetic analyses indicate that this complex shows weak antiferromagnetic behavior with a relatively large magnetocaloric effect (-ΔS(m)(max) = 31.22 J kg(-1) K(-1)).
