Isolation, characterization, and computational studies of the novel [Mo3(mu3-Br)2(mu-Br)3Br6]2- cluster anion.

The novel trimolybdenum cluster [Mo(3)(mu(3)-Br)(2)(mu-Br)(3)Br(6)](2-) (1, {Mo(3)}(9+), 9 d-electrons) has been isolated from the reaction of [Mo(CO)(6)] with 1,2-C(2)H(4)Br(2) in refluxing PhCl. The compound has been characterized in solution by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and in the solid state by X-ray analysis (counter-cations: (n-Bu)(4)N(+) (1), Et(4)N(+), Et(3)BzN(+)), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), magnetic susceptibility measurements, and infrared spectroscopy. The least disordered (n-Bu)(4)N(+) salt crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, a = 20.077(2) A, b = 11.8638(11) A, c = 22.521(2) A, alpha = 9…

A Diferrous Single‐Molecule Magnet

The diferrous complex [Fe2(acpypentO)(NCO)3] (1),(acpypentO– = the anion of 1,5-bis[2-pyridyl(1-ethylimino)]pentane-3-ol) was studied by spectroscopic (dual-mode X-band EPR and 57Fe-Mossbauer) and magnetic (AC magnetic susceptibility) techniques. Complex 1 (A. K. Boudalis et al., Inorg. Chem.2004, 43, 1574) was previously shown to exhibit an intramolecular ferromagnetic coupling with important single-ion anisotropies with marked differences in the single-ion electronic parameters of the two iron sites. In this contribution, additional studies are carried out to probe its dynamic magnetic properties. Mossbauer spectra recorded at liquid helium temperatures indicate slow paramagnetic relaxati…

Hexanuclear iron(III) salicylaldoximato complexes presenting the [Fe6(mu3-O)2(mu2-OR)2]12+ core: syntheses, crystal structures, and spectroscopic and magnetic characterization.

The use of salicylaldehyde oxime (H2salox) in iron(III) carboxylate chemistry has yielded two new hexanuclear compounds [Fe6(mu3-O)2(O2CPh)10(salox)2(L)2].xMeCN.yH2O [L = MeCONH2, x = 6, y = 0 (1); L = H2O, x = 2, y = 3 (2)]. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with (at 25 degrees C) a = 13.210(8) A, b = 13.87(1) A, c = 17.04(1) A, alpha = 105.79(2) degrees , beta = 96.72(2) degrees , gamma = 116.69(2) degrees , V = 2578.17(2) A(3), and Z = 1. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with (at 25 degrees C) a = 21.81(1) A, b = 17.93(1) A, c = 27.72(1) A, beta = 111.70(2) degrees , V = 10070(10) A(3), and Z = 4. Complexes 1 and 2 contain the [Fe6(mu3-O)2(m…

An "S"-shaped pentanuclear CuII cluster derived from the metal-assisted hydrolysis of pyCOpyCOpy: structural, magnetic and spectroscopic studies.

Reaction of [Cu2(O2CMe)4(H2O)2] with 2,6-di-(2-pyridylcarbonyl)-pyridine (pyCOpyCOpy or dpcp) in MeCN–H2O 10 : 1, led to the pentanuclear copper(II) complex [Cu5(O2CMe)6{pyC(O)(OH)pyC(O)(OH)py}2] (1) which crystallizes in the triclinic P space group. The copper(II) atoms are arranged in an “S”-shaped configuration, and are bridged by the doubly deprotonated bis(gem-diol) form of the ligand, pyC(O)(OH)pyC(O)(OH)py2−. Magnetic susceptibility data indicate the interplay of both ferro- and antiferromagnetic intramolecular interactions stabilizing an S = 3/2 ground state. Fitting of the data according to a next-nearest-neighbour model {Ĥ = −[J1(Ŝ1Ŝ2 + Ŝ1′Ŝ2′) + J2(Ŝ2Ŝ3 + Ŝ3′Ŝ2′) + J3(Ŝ1Ŝ3 + Ŝ3′Ŝ…

A Nonanuclear Iron(II) Single-Molecule Magnet

A family of enneanuclear iron(II) single-molecule magnets.

Complexes [Fe 9 (X) 2 -(02CMe)8{(2-py) 2 CO 2 } 4 ] (X - = OH (1), N 3 - (2), and NCO- (3)) have been prepared by a route previously employed for the synthesis of analogous Co 9 and Ni 9 complexes, involving hydroxide substitution by pseudohalides (N 3 - , NCO-). As indicated by DC magnetic susceptibility measurements, this substitution induced higher ferromagnetic couplings in complexes 2 and 3, leading to higher ground spin states compared to that of 1. Variable-field experiments have shown that the ground state is not well isolated from excited states, as a result of which it cannot be unambiguously determined. AC susceptometry has revealed out-of-phase signals, which suggests that these…
