Abstrakt: An organometallic erbium bismuth cluster complex, [K(THF)4]2[Cp*2Er2Bi6] (1), featuring a heterometallocubane core was isolated. The cube emerges from the rare Bi66–Zintl ion, bridging two erbium centers for the first time. SQUID magnetometry and ab initiocalculations uncovered dominant antiferromagnetic coupling enabled through the chair-like hexabismuth anion. The gained insight will promote the design of future polynuclear magnetic molecules comprising prolate lanthanide ions.
