Molecule-based magnetic materials, coordination networks, coordination clusters, solvothermal synthesis.

• Metallo-supramolecular strategy: synthesis, characterisation and investigation of novel multidimensionnal magnetic systems based on polyoxamate ligands.
• Solvothermal synthesis: a new route towards porous magnetic coordination networks.
• Polymetallic starting materials: preparation and use of pre-formed coordination clusters as building blocks for the elaboration of magnetic materials.
