Slow magnetic relaxation in a mixed-valence Mn(II/III) complex: [Mn-2(II)(bispicen)(2)(mu(3)-Cl)(2)Mn-II(Cl(4)Cat)(2)Mn-III(Cl(4)Cat)(2)(H2O)2](infinity)
A layered mixed-valence manganese complex, [Mn-2(II)(bispicen)(2)-(mu(3)-Cl)(2)Mn-III (Cl(4)Cat)(2)Mn-III (Cl(4)Cat)(2)(H2O)(2)](infinity), is synthesized and characterized structurally. It displays a slow magnetic relaxation and hysteresis effect.
