Lanthanide sandwich complexes represent both a fundamental class of organometallic compounds and promising molecular magnets for information storage. Here the authors unveil a class of lanthanide sandwich complexes containing fully π-coordinated 8- and 9-membered rings, and show their slow relaxation of the magnetization.
