We report on ac susceptibility, low-temperature magnetization, and specific heat measurements on molecular compounds, shortly named (Cr-6)(2), (Cr-7)(2), Cr8Cd, and (NiCr6)(2)Zn, that comprise different variants of spin arrays. These systems constitute real examples of collections of identical antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin segments. We indeed show that this picture, with dominant exchange term in the spin Hamiltonian (J/k(B) ranging from 13 to 16 K in all compounds) and weak anisotropy term, fits well the measured physical properties. The character of energy spectra and the low-lying magnetic excitations are discussed accordingly. The direct comparison of experimental results and of the energy spectra of these variants with those of similar cyclic spin systems evidences effects associated with (i) the breaking the cyclic boundary conditions and (ii) odd and even nuclearities of spin segments.
