Organic/inorganic molecular conductors based upon perylene and Lindquist-type polyoxometalates
The preparation, structures and physical properties of the organic/inorganic radical salts based upon perylene (per) and Lindquist type polyoxometalates (POMs) are reported. Three new hybrid salts have been prepared: (per)5[Mo6O19] (1), (per)5[W6O19] (2), and (per)5[VW5O19] (3). Only structures 1 (P, Z = 2) and 3 (P, Z = 2) were fully determined as compound 2 was found to have unit cell parameters practically identical to 1 and, therefore, is considered isostructural with the latter. The structures consist of interpenetrated organic and mixed organic/inorganic layers in the ac plane alternating along the a direction. The organic layers present a novel packing mode of the perylene molecules …
Hybrid materials containing organometallic cations and 3-D anionic metal dicyanamide networks of type [Cp*2M][M′(dca)3]
A new series of hybrid materials of type [Cp*2M][M′(dca)3] has been prepared by cation templation and structurally characterised (M = Fe(III), Co(III); M′ = Mn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cd(II); dca− = N(CN)2−). The crystallographic analysis of [Cp*2Fe][Cd(dca)3] showed that the [Cd(dca)3]− anionic framework is of a symmetrical 3-D α-polonium type, containing octahedral Cd nodes and μ1,5-dca bridging ligands. The [Cp*2Fe]+ cations occupy the cube-like cavities within the framework. The cationic and anionic-framework sublattices remain magnetically independent and display susceptibilities, over the range 300 to 2 K, of a Curie–Weiss nature obtained by adding a S = 1/2 (Cp*2Fe+) or a S = 0 …
New conducting radical salts based upon Keggin-type polyoxometalates and perylene
Three new radical salts, Per6[PMo12O40]·CH2Cl2 (1), Per6[PMo12O40]·CH3CN (2), and Per9(NBu4)4[SiW12O40]2 (3) (Per = perylene), have been synthesised and their electrical and magnetic properties characterised. These three salts are diamagnetic and they behave as semiconductors with room temperature conductivities of 69, 3.6 and 0.85 S cm−1. While salt 2 presents hole-type conduction and 3 exhibits electron-dominated electrical transport properties, salt 1 shows at 150 K an abrupt change in the thermal dependence of the electrical conductivity and the Seebeck coefficient suggesting a phase transition.
Oxalate‐Based 3D Chiral Magnets: The Series [Z II (bpy) 3 ][ClO 4 ][M II Fe III (ox) 3 ] (Z II = Fe, Ru; M II = Mn, Fe; bpy = 2,2'‐Bipyridine; ox = Oxalate Dianion)
The synthesis, structure, and physical properties of the oxalate-based molecular magnets with the formula [ZII(bpy)3][ClO4][MIIFeIII(ox)3] (ZII = Fe, Ru; MII = Mn, Fe; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; ox = oxalate dianion) are presented here. All compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the chiral cubic space group P4132, and contain three-dimensional dimetallic networks formed by alternating MII and MIII ions that are connected by oxalate anions. These compounds exhibit strong antiferromagnetic interactions that give rise to magnetic ordering as ferrimagnets or weak ferromagnets, with critical temperatures of up to 20 K, which is twice as high as those found for the isostructural magnets based…
A Mononuclear Uranium(IV) Single-Molecule Magnet with an Azobenzene Radical Ligand
A tetravalent uranium compound with a radical azobenzene ligand, namely, [{(SiMe2NPh)3‐tacn}UIV(η2‐N2Ph2.)] (2), was obtained by one‐electron reduction of azobenzene by the trivalent uranium compound [UIII{(SiMe2NPh)3‐tacn}] (1). Compound 2 was characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and 1H NMR, IR, and UV/Vis/NIR spectroscopy. The magnetic properties of 2 and precursor 1 were studied by static magnetization and ac susceptibility measurements, which for the former revealed single‐molecule magnet behaviour for the first time in a mononuclear UIV compound, whereas trivalent uranium compound 1 does not exhibit slow relaxation of the magnetization at low temperatures. A first approxim…
A magnetic study of a layered lanthanide hydroxide family: Ln8(OH)20Cl4·nH2O (Ln = Tb, Ho, Er)
Three layered lanthanide hydroxides (LLHs), with the general formula Ln8(OH)20Cl4·nH2O (Ln = Tb (1), Ho (2), Er (3)), were prepared and magnetically characterized. These compounds were further diluted within a yttrium diamagnetic matrix, LYH:xLn, LYH:0.044Tb (1’), LYH:0.045Ho (2’), and LYH:0.065Er (3’), being the study complemented with theoretical calculations in order to understand the electronic configuration and the contributions to the slow relaxation behavior. In the pure compounds dominant 3D ferromagnetic interactions are observed, with a small magnetization hysteresis at 1.8 K for 1, while the magnetically diluted solid solutions display slow relaxation of the magnetization at low …
Magnetic properties of the layered lanthanide hydroxide series Y(x)Dy(8-x)(OH)20Cl4·6H2O: from single ion magnets to 2D and 3D interaction effects.
The magnetic properties of layered dysprosium hydroxides, both diluted in the diamagnetic yttrium analogous matrix (LYH:0.04Dy), and intercalated with 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylate anions (LDyH-2,6-NDC), were studied and compared with the recently reported undiluted compound (LDyH = Dy8(OH)20Cl4·6H2O). The Y diluted compound reveals a single-molecule magnet (SMM) behavior of single Dy ions, with two distinct slow relaxation processes of the magnetization at low temperatures associated with the two main types of Dy sites, 8- and 9-fold coordinated. Only one relaxation process is observed in both undiluted LDyH and intercalated compounds as a consequence of dominant ferromagnetic Dy-Dy intera…
Layered Molecule-Based Magnets Formed by Decamethylmetallocenium Cations and Two-Dimensional Bimetallic Complexes [MIIRuIII(ox)3]−(MII=;Mn, Fe, Co, Cu and Zn; ox=oxalate)
Abstract A new series of hybrid organometallic-inorganic layered magnets with formula [Z III Cp * 2 ] [M II Ru III (ox) 3 ] ( Z III =Co and Fe; M II =Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, and Zn; ox=oxalate: Cp * =pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) has been prepared. All of these compounds are isostructural to the previously reported [ Z III Cp * 2 ] [ M II M III (ox) 3 ] ( M III =Cr, Fe) series and crystallize in the monoclinic space group C 2/ m , as found by powder X-ray diffraction analysis. They are novel examples of magnetic materials formed by bimetallic oxalate-based extended layers separated by layers of organometallic cations. The magnetic properties of all these compounds have been investigated (ac and dc m…
( n -Bu 4 N) 2 [Fe(dcbdt) 2 ] 2 . Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic characterisation
Abstract The ( n -Bu 4 N) 2 [Fe(dcbdt) 2 ] 2 complex, where 4,5-dicyanobenzene-1,2-dithiolate (dcbdt), was prepared and characterised by X-ray diffraction, Mossbauer spectroscopy and magnetisation measurements. The crystal structure as determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction is triclinic, space group P 1 with cell parameters a =9.5660(1) A, b =13.0200(2) A, c =16.0850(2) A, α =67.554°(1), β =86.797°(1), γ =70.523°(1), V =1738.77(4) A 3 and it consists in strongly dimerised [Fe(dcbdt) 2 ] − units, which are stacked side by side as chains along a . The magnetic susceptibility shows that the [Fe(dcbdt) 2 ] − units have a low spin S =1/2 configuration and, besides a strong intradimer ant…
Spin crossover FeII complexes as templates for bimetallic oxalate-based 3D magnets
Abstract We present the synthesis and structural characterization of the salt [Fe(bpp)2][MnCr(ox)3]2 · bpp · CH3OH. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group. This material contains an anionic [MnCr(ox)3]− 3D 10-gon ferromagnetic network, that orders below 3.0 K. The channels created by this architecture are filled by the spin crossover cations [Fe(bpp)2]2+ (bpp = 2,6(bispyrazol-3-yl)pyridine), free ligand and solvent molecules. No spin transition has been observed at ambient pressure.
