A rigid pentadentate chelating ligand (H 2 L) has been utilized to synthesize a series of octacoordinate mononuclear complexes, [Dy(L)(Ph 3 PO)(OOCR)] (where R = C 6 H 5 (1), C(CH 3 ) 3 (2), CF 3 (3)) and a dinuclear complex, [Dy 2 (L) 2 (Ph 3 PO) 2 {(OOC) 2 C 6 H 4 }] (4) based on the highly anisotropic Dy(III) ion. All the complexes were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The complexes were formed by the coordination action of the dianionic pentadentate ligand [L] 2- , one phosphine oxide, and carboxylate ligands. DC and AC magnetic measurements were performed on 1-4. Complexes 1-4 show SMM behaviour, under zero DC field for 1 and 4, and under 500 Oe and 1000 Oe DC fields for 2 and 3 respectively, with thermally activated, Raman, and Raman and quantum tunnelling dominant relaxation mechanisms for 1 and 2, 3 and 4, respectively.
