E. Coronado et al., Toward multifunctional single-molecule magnets: Characterization of dodecanuclear manganese complexes by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, INORG CHEM, 40(24), 2001, pp. 6084
Single-molecule magnets (SMM) based on the dodecanuclear manganese complexe
s Mn12O12(RCOO)(16) can be readily characterized by electrospray ionization
mass spectrometry. This facilitates the synthesis of complex multifunction
al molecules that have potential use in the organization of SMM into films
or surfaces.
