Quantitative determination of magnetic anisotropy and the energy level diagram in 4f monomeric complexes is key to design appropriate crystalline environments of the magnetic centers. Here, we report high-field/high-frequency electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (HF-EPR) and magnetisation studies on the phenantrolin-pyridin-triazol (PPT) complex [Er(PPTMP)₂(MeOH)][OTf]₃x3MeOH which is characterised by a muffin-shaped first coordination sphere. Our observation of a Kramer’s doublet with g_eff=8.5(4) implies a m = 7/2 ground state doublet of the 9-fold coordinated Er(III) ion. This conclusion is further supported by high-field magnetisation data. The absence of inter doublet transitions indicates that the gap to the first excited Kramers doublet exceeds 550 GHz. The anisotropic effective g-factors are compared with numerical studies and discussed with respect to related Er(III) complexes.
