title: A single-chain magnet based on linear [Mn(III)2Mn(II)] units.
abstract: The synthesis, structural characterization and magnetic properties of a 1D coordination polymer based on a linear mixed valent [Mn(III)2Mn(II)] repeating unit are described. It displays single-chain magnet (SCM) behaviour with an energy barrier of ∼38 K and represents the first example of a mixed valent Mn-carboxylate SCM with a linear architecture.
