Self-consistent calculation of the local density of states (LDOS) and the x-ray absorption coefficient of three samples of the Mn Acetate family of Single Molecule Magnets (SMM) were performed and compared to experimentally measured near edge absorption spectra (XANES). The very good agreement between the computations and the experiment gives an opportunity for systematic correlation between the electronic and magnetic properties of this rapidly developing class of nanomagnets.
