Abstract  A new single-molecule magnet [Mn11Fe1O12 (CH3COO)16(H2O)4]?2CH3COOH?4H2O (Mn11Fe1) has been synthesized.The structure has been studied by the single crystal x-ray diffraction. The difference of Jahn--Teller distortion between Fe3+ and Mn3+ ion reveals that Fe3+ ion substitutes for Mn3+ ion on the Mn(3) sites in the Mn12 skeleton. The temperature dependence of the magnetization gives a blocking temperature TB=1.9K for Mn11Fe1. Based on the magnetization process analysis of the crystal at T=2K, we suggest that Mn11Fe1 has the ground state with a total spin S= 11/2.
Keywords:  quantum tunnelling      Jahn--Teller distortion      blocking temperature
