Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) have potential applications in high-density data storage, but magnetic relaxation times at elevated temperatures must be increased to make them practically useful. Bis-cyclopentadienyl lanthanide sandwich complexes have emerged as the leading candidates for SMMs that show magnetic memory at liquid nitrogen temperatures, but the relaxation mechanisms mediated by aromatic C-5 rings have not been fully established. Here we synthesize a bis-monophospholyl dysprosium SMM [Dy(Dtp)(2)][Al{OC(CF3)(3)}(4)] (1, Dtp = {P((CBuCMe)-Bu-t)(2)}) by the treatment of in-situ-prepared [Dy(Dtp)(2)(C3H5)] with [HNEt3][Al{OC(CF3)(3)}(4)]. SQUID magnetometry reveals that 1 has an effective barrier to magnetization reversal of 1760 K (1223 cm(-1)) and magnetic hysteresis up to 48 K. Ab initio calculation of the spin dynamics reveals that transitions out of the ground state are slower in 1 than in the first reported dysprosocenium SMM, [Dy(Cp-ttt)(2)][B(C6F5)(4)] (Cp-ttt = (C5H2Bu3)-Bu-t-1,2,4); however, relaxation is faster in 1 overall due to the compression of electronic energies and to vibrational modes being brought on-resonance by the chemical and structural changes introduced by the bis-Dtp framework. With the preparation and analysis of 1, we are thus able to further refine our understanding of relaxation processes operating in bis-C-5/C4P sandwich lanthanide SMMs, which is the necessary first step toward rationally achieving higher magnetic blocking temperatures in these systems in the future.
