description

Abstract The title compound, Cu(TIM)CuBr4 (where TIM is a macrocycle ligand) is a member of the Cu(TIM)MX4 family, which contains linear chain structures with ⋯ Cu ⋯ X – M – X ⋯ Cu ⋯ X – M - ⋯ linkages. This chain structure defines an alternating exchange/alternating site 1d system. For M=Cu, alternating FM/AFM chains are formed with JFM>| JAFM|. Structural and magnetic data are presented, along with an analysis of the exchange pathways.
