The magnetic interaction between a 5f element and a 3d transition metal in a molecular compound was investigated with a novel class of complexes in which the central UIV ion is associated with two MII ions by means of a hexadentate Schiff base ligand (see picture). The comparative study of the Cu2U, Zn2U, and Cu2Zr compounds revealed that the f orbitals of UIV mediate ferromagnetic interactions within the Cu-U-Cu triad.
