N2 - Carbonato-bridged ZnII2LnIII2 complexes [(μ4-CO3)2{ZnIIL nLnIII(NO3)}2]·solvent were synthesized through atmospheric CO2 fixation reaction of [Zn IILn(H2O)2]·xH2O, LnIII(NO3)3·6H2O, and triethylamine, where LnIII = GdIII, TbIII, by a spin Hamiltonian including the crystal field effect on the Ln III ions and the LnIII-LnIII magnetic interaction. The Stark splitting of the ground state was so evaluated, and the energy pattern indicates a strong easy axis (Ising type) anisotropy. Luminescence spectra of ZnII2TbIII2 complexes were observed, while those of ZnII2Dy III2 were not detected. The fine structure assignable to the 5D4 → 7F6 transition of ZnTb1 and ZnTb2 is in good accord with the energy pattern from the magnetic analysis. The ZnII2LnIII2 complexes (LnIII = TbIII, DyIII) showed an out-of-phase signal with frequency-dependence in alternating current susceptibility, indicative of single molecule magnet. Under a dc bias field of 1000 Oe, the signals become significantly more intense and the energy barrier, Δ/k B, for the magnetic relaxation was estimated from the Arrhenius plot to be 39(1) and 42(8) K for ZnTb1 and ZnTb2, and 52(2) and 67(2) K for ZnDy1 and ZnDy2, respectively.
