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.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
