Compounds <b>1</b> and <b>2</b> are isostructural with a T-shaped structure, in which [M(CN)<sub>6</sub>]<sup>3-</sup> assumes a <i>meridional</i>-tridentate building block to bind three [Mn(salen)(EtOH)]<sup>+</sup> units. The strong frequency dependence and observation of hysteresis on the field dependence of the magnetization indicate that <b>1</b> is a single-molecule magnet. salen;CN;Fe;NH;Mn;tridentate building block;M III;dependence;C 12 H 25;Cr 2005-08-22
