A Dy(III) Fluorescent Single-Molecule Magnet Based on a Rhodamine 6G Ligand

The complexes of lanthanide metals, especially dysprosium, can generally exhibit excellent magnetic properties. By means of modifying ligands, dual functions or even multi-functions can be achieved. Here, we synthesized an eight-coordinate Dy(III) complex <b>1</b>, [Dy(HL-o)<sub>2&...
