Popis: - We propose a strategy to design molecular based ferromagnets, consisting of assembling ferrimagnetic chains within the crystal lattice in a ferromagnetic fashion. The chains may be either regular or alternating. Examples of both situations are presented. The magnetic properties are discussed. One of the compounds orders ferromagnetically at 14 K, which is the highest ordering temperature reported so far for this kind of molecular materids One of the main challenges in the field of molecu- lar materials is the design of molecular based ferro- magnets. The first compounds of this kind have been reported in the last two years [I-41. Our basic strat- egy along this line consists of assembling ferrimagnetic chains within the crystal lattice in a ferromagnetic fashion. This can be achieved owing to the (almost) limitless flexibility of the molecular chemistry. In this paper, we present some of the results obtained so far. We will first consider the case of regular'ferrimagnetic chains, then that of alternating ones.
