Ferromagnetism and Chirality in Two-Dimensional Cyanide-Bridged Bimetallic Compounds
2002
The combination of hexacyanoferrate(III) anions, [Fe(CN)(6)](3)(-), with nickel(II) complexes derived from the chiral ligand trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (trans-chxn) affords the enantiopure layered compounds [Ni(trans-(1S,2S)-chxn)(2)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2).2H(2)O (1) and [Ni(trans-(1R,2R)-chxn)(2)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2).2H(2)O (2). These chiral systems behave as ferromagnets (T(c) = 13.8 K) with a relatively high coercive field (H(c) = 0.17 T) at 2 K. They also exhibit an unusual magnetic behavior at low temperatures that has been attributed to the dynamics of the magnetic domains in the ordered phase.
Synthesis, crystal structures and electronic properties of imidazoline nitroxide radicals bearing active groups in electropolymerisation
2003
Thiophene-, phenylthiophene-, and indole-based nitronyl nitroxide (NN) and imino nitroxide (IN) radicals have been synthesised and their electrochemical and magnetic properties have been studied. Cyclic voltammetry measurements show that NN radicals (1–3) exhibit a one-electron quasi-reversible oxidation process that results in the formation of the corresponding nitrosonium cations. This behaviour pushes the oxidation potential of the other redox-active moiety to very high values. The oxidation of the thiophene subunit occurs at 2.35 V, whereas the oxidation of the phenylthiophene and indole moieties takes place at 1.65 and 1.39 V, respectively. Oxidation of IN radicals (4–5) is irreversibl…
