Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of a trinuclear [Mn(III)Mn(II)2] single-molecule magnet

Ferromagnetic exchange between the three Mn ions in the complex [Mn3(Hcht)2(bpy)4](ClO4)3 leads to a spin ground state of S = 7; single crystal studies reveal the temperature and sweep rate dependent hysteresis loops expected for a single-molecule magnet.
