Abstract

Dissolution of FeBr<subscript>3</subscript> in a mixture of acetonitrile and 3,4-lutidine in the presence of an amine results in the formation of an [Fe<subscript>30</subscript>] molecular metal oxide containing alternating layers of tetrahedral and octahedral Fe<superscript>III</superscript> ions. Mass spectrometry suggests the cluster is formed quickly and remains stable in solution, while magnetic measurements and DFT calculations reveal competing antiferromagnetic exchange interactions.
