title: A hybrid organic-inorganic molecular daisy chain.
abstract: A hybrid organic-inorganic molecular daisy chain has been synthesised in one pot reaction. The molecule contains two {Cr6Zn2} rings linked through an organic molecule that acts as both template and ligand. Magnetic and spectroscopic data reveal the magnetic complexity of the daisy chain, which can be casted to two magnetic isomers through comparison of experimental and simulated data for Cr(III) chains.
