Enhancement of Single‐Molecule Magnet Properties by Manipulating Intramolecular Dipolar Interactions by Jia‐Qi Huang, Qi‐Wei Chen, You‐Song Ding, Xiao‐Fei Zhu, Bing‐Wu Wang, Feng Pan, Zhiping Zheng

“…The two COT‐Er units in the newly formed complex are triply bridged by µ‐Cl ligands, leading to the “head‐to‐tail” alignment of the magnetic easy axes distinctly different from the “staggered” arrangement in the precursor complex. This structural transformation has led to significantly enhanced intramolecular dipolar interactions and a reduced transverse component of the crystal fields, increasing the energy barrier from 150(8) K for Er2Cl2 to 264(4) K for Er2Cl3 and extending its magnetic relaxation time at 2 K by 2500 times with respect to Er2Cl2. …”
