Coordinating and hydrogen bonding ability of a bifunctional 2D paddle-wheel copper(II) coordination polymer
2015
abstract A new copper(II) complex of formula {[Cu 2 (H 2 btc) 2 (dmf) 2 ] 4dmf} n (1)[H 4 btc = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarb-oxylic acid, dmf = dimethylformamide] has been synthesised and its structure determined by X-raydiffraction. The structure displays a new square grid of ‘‘paddle-wheel’’ tetracarboxylate-bridgeddicopper(II) units with an intradimer copper–copper separation of 2.619(2) A. The dmf molecules areretained through weak axial coordinative bonds and hydrogen bonding interactions with the carboxylicgroups of the porous neutral network of 4 4 net topology. The magnetic behaviour of 1 corresponds to astrong antiferromagnetic coupling within each dicopper(II) unit (J = 343 cm 1 with …
A Mononuclear Uranium(IV) Single-Molecule Magnet with an Azobenzene Radical Ligand
2015
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)
2018
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.
2015
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…
