Preparation, crystal structures and magnetic properties of a series of four binuclear Cu-Ln complexes are reported (Ln = Gd-III, Tb-III, and Dy-III). These are based on a bicompartmental Schiff-base ligand formed by condensation of 1,3-diaminopropan-2-ol with ortho-vanillin. This Schiff-base is known to usually involve its deprotonated alcohol group in metal coordination, which is not the case here. Instead the OH unit is engaged in H-bonding interactions. Intra-and inter-molecular H-bonds are formed when the alcohol group is located in axial position of the six-member ring formed by the diamino moiety and the Cu atom. In equatorial position, this group is only involved in intermolecular bonding. The corresponding Cu-Tb derivative is shown to behave as a Single Molecule Magnet with Delta k(B) = 24.6 K and tau(0) = 2.1 x 10(-8) s (HDC = 1.5 kOe). (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
