The cube emerges from the rare Bi66− Zintl ion,bridging two erbium centers for the first time. SQUID magneto-metry and ab initio calculations uncovered dominant antiferro-magnetic coupling enabled through the chair-like hexabismuthanion. The gained insight will promote the design of futurepolynuclear magnetic molecules comprising prolate lanthanideions7enAn Organometallic Erbium Bismuth Cluster Complex Comprising a Bi $_6$ $^6–$ Zintl Ion202410.1021/acs.inorgchem.4c0263685207595802
