title: Nine members of a family of nine-membered cyclic coordination clusters; Fe6Ln3 wheels (Ln = Gd to Lu and Y).
abstract: We report a family of isostructural nonanuclear Fe(III)-Ln(III) cyclic coordination clusters [Fe(III)(6)Ln(III)(3)(μ-OMe)9(vanox)6(benz)6]. (Ln = Tb (1), Dy (2), Ho (3), Er (4), Tm (5), Yb (6), Lu (7), Y (8) and Gd (9)), containing an odd number of metal ions. The planar cyclic coordination cluster cores are built up from three [Fe2Ln] subunits.
