We report on the synthesis and magnetic properties of Mn12-based single molecular magnets (SMMs) with benzene and pentafluorobenzene carboxylate ligands. The changes in ligand structure are shown to have a decisive effect on magnetic properties of produced complexes. The compound with benzene demonstrates unusual magnetic behaviour, namely, temperature dependencies of magnetization taken under the zero field cooled and field cooled conditions are split below 10 K and furthermore remnant magnetization and coercive force remain nonzero in this temperature range. In contrast, compound with pentafluorobenzene displays the customary signatures of a blocking temperature at 3K. The effect of ligand substitution was theoretically studied within local density approximation taking into account on-site Coloumb repulsion. Calculation results confirm that the electronic structure and the magnetic exchange interactions between different Mn atoms strongly depend on the type of ligands.
