2011 unpublished
The first section of the present chapter illustrates the general features of single molecule magnets: the class of compounds to which the cyclic metal structures studied in the present thesis belong. The second section describes the properties of antiferromagnetic molecular rings focusing on the compounds studied in the present work: Cr 8 homometallic ring and Cr 7 M heterometallic rings, where M = Cd, Ni. The chemical structure and synthesis of these macrocycles are briefly described together
