New preprint! 🧲🥵 Mo(pyrazine)₃ is a crystallographically well-defined molecular magnet showing nearly compensated ferrimagnetism and magnetic hysteresis up to at least 625 K (352 °C), before the framework itself begins to degrade. chemrxiv.org/doi/abs/10.2...

👋 Our new paper in @natchem.nature.com shows a molecular ferrimagnet that produces almost no external magnetic field and persists well above room temperature.🧲🌡️ Cr(pyrazine)₃ is a simple metal-organic framework with magnetic interactions comparable to the strongest known in inorganic materials. 🔗👇

🧪 Simplicity engineered for magnetism 🧲 📢 Preprint: Cr(pyrazine)₃ - maybe the simplest MOF with potential voids known. Built from Cr(III) + radical pyrazine linkers, this perovskite analogue shows magnetic interactions rivaling the strongest known in inorganic materials, stabilizing order above RT.
