description

The synthesis, structure and physical properties of the bimetallic oxalate-based molecular magnets containing MnIII of formula [NBu4][MIIMn(ox)3] (MII = Fe, Co, Ni, Zn; ox = oxalate dianion) are presented here. All compounds are isostructural, containing two-dimensional honeycomb bimetallic networks formed by alternating MII and MIII ions connected by oxalate anions. These compounds exhibit antiferromagnetic interactions that give rise to ferrimagnets or weak ferromagnets ordering at critical temperatures up to 21 K.
