Abstract

Abstract : A nano-sized hexameric [MnIII3Na]6 molecular aggregate is reported which is the second largest oxime-based Mn cluster known to date, the largest member of the family of molecular oligomers based on [Mn3 ] triangles, and the only one with a wheel-like metal topology. Abstract : A novel hexameric [MnIII18Na6 ] wheel-like aggregate consisting of [MnIII3O] triangles is reported. It is the second highest nuclearity oxime-based Mn cluster, the largest member of the recently-developed family of molecular oligomers based on [MnIII3O] triangles, and the only one with a wheel-like metal topology.
