Abstract
The construction of homochiral zero-field single-molecule magnets (SMMs), especially with axial chiral ligands, remains a great challenge. Herein the first examples of homochiral Dy(III) Schiff base complexes based on axial chiral ligands (R)/(S)-5,5',6,6',7,7',8,8'-octahydro-1,1'-bi-2-naphthyl phosphate (R-HL/S-HL), [Dy2(R-L/S-L)2(LSchiff)2(H2O)(MeOH)]·2MeOH·CH2Cl2·2MeCN·2H2O (R-1/S-1) [H2LSchiff = (E)-N'-(5-fluoro-2-hydroxybenzylidene)pyrazine-2-carbohydrazide], were synthesized at room temperature, which show ferromagnetic coupling, and perform as zero-field SMMs, with a Ueff/k value of 61 K at 0 Oe. Ab initio calculations were used to explain their magnetic interaction and magnetic relaxation properties. Furthermore, the magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra of R-1/S-1 revealed that they display obvious magneto-optical effects.
