manganese(III) Schiff base complex, Mn4, has
been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography.
Direct-current magnetization measurements were performed on the system
and proved to be insufficient for an accurate magnetic model to be
deduced. Combined inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and electron
paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments provided the necessary information
in order to successfully model the magnetic properties of Mn4. The resulting model takes into account both the magnitude
and the relative orientations of the single-ion anisotropy tensors.
