Inventing the double wheel : A mixed–valent [Mn 32 ] cluster with a very rare “double‐decker” wheel topology (see its metal–oxygen core: Mn III blue, Mn II pink, O red) is reported. It is by far the highest‐nuclearity example of its type, and it displays SMM behavior with the largest effective barrier to magnetization relaxation ( U eff ≈44.5 K) for any molecular wheel.
