2010
The synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new series of mixed 3d–4f complexes with the formula [{FeIII(phen)(CN)3(μ-CN)}4Ln2III(NO3)2(H2O)6(μ-bpym)]·nH2O [Ln = Eu (1), Gd (2), Dy (3) and Ho (4); n = 8 (1, 3 and 4) and 11 (2); phen = 1,10-phenantroline; bpym = 2,2′-bipyrimidine] are discussed here. Compounds 1–4 are centrosymmetric hexanuclear species whose structure is made up of two cyano-bridged {Fe2IIILnIII} heterobimetallic moieties which are connected through a bis-bidentate bpym molecule between the two rare-earth centers. The values of the iron–lanthanide distance across the single cyano-bridge are Fe(1)⋯Eu(1) = 5.5587(8) and Fe(2)⋯Eu(1) = 5.4908(8) A (1), Fe(1)⋯G…
Intramolecular ferro- and antiferromagnetic interactions in oxo-carboxylate bridged digadolinium(iii) complexes
2010
Two new digadolinium(III) complexes with monocarboxylate ligands, [Gd2(pac)6(H2O)4] (1) and [Gd2(tpac)6(H2O)4] (2) (Hpac = pentanoic acid and Htpac = 3-thiopheneacetic acid), have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. Their structures consist of neutral and isolated digadolinium(III) units, containing six monocarboxylate ligands and four coordinated water molecules, the bridging skeleton being built by a muO(1):kappa2O(1)O(2) framework. This structural pattern has already been observed in the parent acetate-containing compound [Gd2(ac)6(H2O)4] x 4 H2O (3) whose structure and magnetic properties were reported elsewhere (L. Cañadillas-Delgado, …
The yttrium chloride-1,10-phenanthroline interaction: Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of the complex [Y(OH)(H2O)2(phen)2]2Cl4·2(phen)·MeOH
1991
Abstract Investigations on the reaction between YCl3·H2O and phen (1,10-phenanthroline) led to the isolation of the title compound. The synthesis, IR and X-ray structural characterization are described. The crystal contains centrosymmetric binuclear dications [Y2(phen)4(μ-OH)2(H2O)4]4+, uncoordinated chloride anions, two clathrated phen molecules and a disordered methanol molecule. The yttrium ions are eight-coordinated with square antiprismatic geometry to the nitrogen atoms of two phen molecules, to bridging hydroxyl groups and to two water molecules. The Y ⋯ YI separation in the dimer is 3.651(2)A˚.
Field-induced slow relaxation of magnetisation in two one-dimensional homometallic dysprosium(iii) complexes based on alpha- and beta-amino acids.
2020
Two one-dimensional dysprosium(III) complexes based on α-glycine (gly) and β-alanine (β-ala) amino acids, with the formula {[Dy2(gly)6(H2O)4](ClO4)6·5H2O}n (1) and {[Dy2(β-ala)6(H2O)4](ClO4)6·H2O}n (2), have been synthesised and characterised structurally and magnetically. Both compounds crystallise in the triclinic system with the space group P. In 1, two DyIII ions are eight-coordinate and bound to six oxygen atoms from six gly ligands and two oxygen atoms from two water molecules, showing different geometries (bicapped trigonal prism and square antiprism). In 2, two DyIII ions are nine-coordinate and bound to seven oxygen atoms from six β-ala ligands and two oxygen atoms from two water m…
Ca[Ag2(SCN)4]·2H2O
2004
Calcium tetrathiocyanatodiargentate(I) dihydrate, Ca[Ag(2)(SCN)(4)].2H(2)O, contains eight-membered Ag(4)S(4) rings bonded together through shared atoms to form layers parallel to (100). The thiocyanate groups link the layers to Ca-O chains running parallel to the c axis. The Ca atom is located on a twofold rotation axis parallel to b and is surrounded by four water molecules of crystallization and four thiocyanate N atoms in a distorted square antiprism.

Dinuclear and two- and three-dimensional gadolinium(III) complexes with mono- and dicarboxylate ligands: synthesis, structure and magnetic properties
2009
Three new gadolinium(III) complexes with carboxylate ligands of formula [Gd2(ac)6(H2O)4]·2H2O (1), [Gd2(ac)2(fum)2(H2O)4]n (2) and [Gd2(ox)(fum)2(H2O)4]n·4nH2O (3) (ac = acetate, fum = fumarate and ox = oxalate) have been prepared and their structures determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. The structure of 1 is made up of discrete centrosymmetric di-µ-oxo(carboxylate acetate)digadolinium(III) units with an intramolecular Gd⋯Gd separation of 4.1589(3) A. Each gadolinium atom in 1 is nine-coordinated with two water molecules and seven carboxylate-oxygen atoms from four acetate ligands building a monocapped square antiprism environment. Compound 2 exhibits a sheet-like structure, …
Rational Design of Single-Ion Magnets and Spin Qubits Based on Mononuclear Lanthanoid Complexes
2012
Here we develop a general approach to calculating the energy spectrum and the wave functions of the low-lying magnetic levels of a lanthanoid ion submitted to the crystal field created by the surrounding ligands. This model allows us to propose general criteria for the rational design of new mononuclear lanthanoid complexes behaving as single-molecule magnets (SMMs) or acting as robust spin qubits. Three typical environments exhibited by these metal complexes are considered, namely, (a) square antiprism, (b) triangular dodecahedron, and (c) trigonal prism. The developed model is used to explain the properties of some representative examples showing these geometries. Key questions in this ar…

2019
Abstract Four new coordination polymers based on the use of the [Cr(pyim)(C2O4)2]− species as a metalloligand, namely [LiCr(pyim)(C2O4)2(MeOH)]n (1), {[CaCr2(pyim)2(C2O4)4]·2MeOH}n (2), {[SrCr2(pyim)2(C2O4)4(H2O)]·0.45MeOH·4.55H2O}n (3) and {[CdCr2(pyim)2(C2O4)4]·MeOH}n (4) [pyim = 2-(2′-pyridyl)imidazole] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectra and X-ray diffraction on single crystals. Complex 1 is a neutral heterobimetallic chain where the tris(chelated) chromium(III) unit acts as a bis-bidentate ligand towards {Li(MeOH)}+ fragments through its two oxalate ligands, each lithium ion being five-coordinate in a intermediate surrounding between square pyramid…

Abstract In this work we report the synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of two lanthanoid based coordination polymers (CP) and two dimers prepared with two derivatives of the 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (C6O4X2)2− as ligands. Using the bromanilato ligand: (C6O4Br2)2− we have prepared the CP [Eu1.96Dy0.04(C6O4Br2)3(DMSO)6]·2DMSO (1) (DMSO = dimethylsulfoxide) and with the chlorocyananilato ligand: (C6O4(CN)Cl)2−) we have prepared one CP formulated as [Eu1.96Dy0.04(C6O4(CN)Cl)3(DMSO)6] (2) and two isostructural dimers: [Eu1.96Dy0.04(C6O4(CN)Cl)3(H2O)10]·6H2O (3) and [Eu2(C6O4(CN)Cl)3(H2O)10]·6H2O (4). Compounds 1, 2 and 3 are Eu(III) compounds doped with 2.0 % of Dy(III), whereas …
