Dressed up to the nines : A nonanuclear Fe II complex exhibiting rare μ 4 :η 1 azido bridges that induce ferromagnetic exchange interactions possesses a core with a very large ground‐state spin (probably S =14, see picture). The combination of a large S value and the magnetic anisotropy of iron( II ) centers endows this unique species with superparamagnetic behavior (SMM=single‐molecule magnet).
