Abstract: | We synthesized and characterized a new compound {Dy(hfac)3}2Pd(dpk)2] (Dy2Pd]; Hdpk = di-2-pyridyl ketoxime), which is isostructural with the known Dy2Cu] and Dy2Ni]. The study of the Dy2Pd] compound containing diamagnetic Pd ion is indispensable to clarify a contribution of the exchange coupling for a 4f-3d single-molecule magnet behavior. From the ac susceptibility measurements on Dy2Pd], we obtained Δ/kB = 28.6(11) K and TB = 1.1 K. In accordance with the blocking behavior, the pulsed-field magnetization showed the hysteresis behavior below 1.1 K. These parameters on Dy2Pd] having SPd = 0 was compared with those of the derivatives having SCu = 1/2 (Δ/kB = 47 K and TB = 1.8 K) and SNi = 1 (Δ/kB = 62(4) K and TB = 2.5 K). The TB and Δ steadily increase with the increasing 3d(4d) spin quantum number. |
