[Ni(cyclam)(μ1,3-dca)2Cu(μ1,5-dca)2]:  A Genuine 3D Bimetallic Coordination Polymer Containing Both μ1,3- and μ1,5-Bidentate Dicyanamide Bridges and a Ferromagnetic Interaction between Copper(II) and Nickel(II) Ions

The structure of [Ni(cyclam)(μ 1 , 3 -dca) 2 Cu(μ 1 , 5 -dca) 2 ], a genuine 3D dicyanamide-bridged bimetallic coordination polymer, is made up of 2D [Cu(μ- 1 , 5 dca) 2 ] n layers connected by [Ni(cyclam)(μ 1 , 3 -dca) 2 ] bridging moieties; it exhibits a ferromagnetic exchange interaction between copper(ll) and nickel(ll) ions through the μ 1 , 3 -bidentate dicyanamide bridges.

Two polymorphs Ni(II) complexes containing the dicyanamide ligand: syntheses, structures and magnetic properties of {[Ni(meso-CTH)(μ1,5-dca)]ClO4}n and [Ni(meso-CTH)][Ni(meso-CTH)(dca)2](ClO4)2 (dca=dicyanamide; CTH=meso-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraaza cyclotetradecane)

Abstract Two polymorphs Ni(II) complexes {[Ni(meso-CTH)(μ1,5-dca)]ClO4}n (1) and [Ni(meso-CTH)][Ni(meso-CTH)(dca)2](ClO4)2 (2) have been obtained in the same synthesis from dicyanamide (dca) and [Ni(meso-CTH)](ClO4)2 and have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and magnetic measurements. Complex 1 is a 1D cationic polymeric zig-zag chain with single end-to-end dca bridges connecting Ni(II) ions in trans positions, whereas in compound 2 coexist two different types of Ni(II) mononuclear units, cationic square-planar and neutral octahedral. Variable-temperature magnetic measurements reveal weak ferromagnetic interactions across the single end-to-end dca bridges in 1, while for 2 the ma…

Novel Bimetallic-Dicyanamide Extended Two- and Three-Dimensional Networks through [Cu(rac-CTH)]2+ Cation Templation

Reaction of [Cu(rac-CTH)]2+ with dicyanamide and Mn2+ or Fe2+ produces three bimetallic extended structures. Complexes 1 and 2, both obtained in the same reaction pot, consist of two different (4,4) two-dimensional (2D) layers, with the [Cu(rac-CTH)(dca)]+ cations noncoordinated and coordinated to the Mn(μ1,5-dca) network for 1 and 2, respectively (rac-CTH = racemic-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane). Complex 2 shows an unusual monodentate coordination mode through the central amide nitrogen of the dca ligand which is first reported for a polynuclear complex. The structure of 3 consists of a three-dimensional network which can be described as a stacking of layers m…
