In this sense, we have prepared an adenine based homometallic wheel-shaped heptameric [Cu₇(μ-adeninato)₆(μ₃-OH)₆(μ-OH₂)₄]²+ entity containing two metal coordination environments: CuO₆ at the core of the wheel with an unusually modest Jahn-Teller distortion and six peripheral CuN₂O₄ with a more pronounced elongation. The difference in the coordination environments of this compound facilitates the selective replacement of the central metal position by other metal centers (ZnII, NiII, CoII and CrIII) and boosts the magnetic properties of the homometallic heptameric entity. The nature of the central metal modulates the complex net of ferro- and antiferromagnetic superexchange pathways within the heptameric entity to tune the total spin (ST = 3 (Cu6Zn), 5/2 (Cu6Cu), 2 (Cu6Ni), 3/2 (Cu6Co), and 9/2 (Cu6Cr)). No evidence of single-molecule magnet behavior has been observed at 2 K, but at room temperature, where these compounds are still in the paramagnetic regime, the attraction force exerted by an external magnetic field (H) on particles immersed in a liquid is enough to keep them attached to an electromagnet pole. The 4S(S + 1) value of the central metal follows a linear dependence with respect to the 1/[H·∇(H)] value at which the particles are detached from the pole of the electromagnet. There is also a linear dependence of the H·∇(H) term with respect to the adsorbate mass incorporated inside the pores of the paramagnetic adsorbent which has allowed performing straightforward sorption selectivity experiments on Cu6Cu directly in solution, which are based on a property of the adsorbent and not as usually based on an indirect assessment of the adsorbate remaining in solution.}, organization = {This work has been funded by Eusko Jaurlaritza/Gobierno Vasco (IT1291-19; IT1722-22; ELKARTEK program KK-2022/00032), Ministerio de Universidades and the European Union-Next Generation EU (marsa21/52, R.
