One dimensional Mn(III) Schiff-base complex organization through very strong symmetrical H-bond interaction

2016

Abstract We are reporting the structural and magnetic characterization of a Mn(III) mononuclear complex based on a Schiff-base ligand with carboxylate pendant arm. Very strong symmetric H-interaction drives a one dimensional organization of this complex, densely packed through C–H⋯π further interactions. Low temperature magnetic behaviour appears governed by local ion zero field splitting obscuring any possible weak exchange interaction through the symmetric H-bond pathway.

Hexanuclear NiII4LnIII2 Complexes with SMM Behavior at Zero Field for Ln = Tb, Dy, Ho

2020

A mononuclear Ni(II) complex, [NiL2]·2H2O, was prepared by the reaction of a N2O2 donor monocondensed Schiff base ligand, 2-((3-aminopropylimino)methyl)-6-methoxyphenol (HL), with NiCl2·6H2O. The reaction of this complex with NiCl2·6H2O and LnCl3·6H2O (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) in a 1:1:1 molar ratio leads to four hexanuclear Ni4Ln2 complexes formulated as [{(NiL)2Gd}2(μ2-Cl)2(μ3-OH)4(OH2)4]Cl4·CH3CN·H2O (1), [{(NiL)2Tb}2(μ2-Cl)2Cl2(μ3-OH)4(OH2)2]Cl2·12H2O (2), [{(NiL)2Dy}2(μ2-Cl)2Cl2(μ3-OH)4(OH2)2]Cl2·16H2O (3), and [{(NiL)2Ho}2(μ2-Cl)2(μ3-OH)4(OH2)4]Cl4·CH3CN·1.8H2O (4). The Ln(III) centers are octacoordinated with a triangular-dodecahedral geometry, and the geometries around the Ni(II) center…

Spin relaxation in Cu and Al spin conduits

2014

We study the spin relaxation in Al and Cu spin conduits embedded in non-local spin valve nanostructures. Measuring the key spin transport properties, we determine the spin and charge diffusion constants as well as the spin flip time. By varying the temperature, we find that the maximum of the non-local spin resistance change occurs at finite temperatures with a clear difference between Al and Cu. In particular, we find that the maximum of the non-local spin signal in Al is less pronounced and occurs at lower temperatures compared to Cu suggesting that the self-passivating Al surface plays a role. Having fabricated devices with both materials in identical processes, we can attribute the diff…

A new eight-coordinate complex of manganese(II): synthesis, crystal structure, spectroscopy and magnetic properties of [Mn(Hoxam)2(H2O)4] (H2oxam=oxa…

2001

Abstract The crystal structure of an eight-coordinate manganese(II) compound containing oxamato and water molecules as ligands [Mn(Hoxam)2(H2O)4], were H2oxam=oxamic acid, has been determined by X-ray diffraction on single-crystals. The coordinated oxygen atoms are located at the vertices (corners) of a distorted bicapped trigonal antiprism. Hydrogen bonding is responsible for an extended 3D-network. The magnetic susceptibility data of the compound have been investigated. χMT follows the Curie law, at very low temperatures χMT decreases smoothly due to weak intermolecular interactions and/or due to a small zero field splitting of the sextuplet spin state of the Mn(II).

Synthesis, structure and magnetic characterization of [Fe(bpp)2][Cu(pds)2]2·solv (solv=CH3CN and CH3OH)

2008

A novel salt of the Fe(II) cation [Fe(bpp)2]2+ (bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine) with the [CuIII(pds)2]- anion (pds = pirazine-2,3-diselenolate) formulated as [Fe(bpp)2][Cu(pds)2]2·3CH3CN has been prepared and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The salt presents a layered structure where cations and anions alternate along the b direction with many intermolecular short contacts between the cations and anions. The magnetic properties show that the Fe(II) cations [Fe(bpp)2]2+ present a high-spin S = 2 ground spin state with g = 2.073(1) and a zero field splitting (ZFS) of 7.7(1) cm-1 but no the expected spin transition at low temperatures. © 2008 E…

Crystal structure, magnetic and spectroscopic properties of the bis(dimethyl sulfoxide) adduct of tetra-μ-formato-dicopper(II), a new tetracarboxylat…

1994

The crystal and molecular structure of a new tetracarboxylato-bridged copper(II) dimer, the bis(dimethyl sulfoxide)tetrakis(μ-formato)dicopper(II) has been determined by X-ray diffraction methods. It crystatlizes in the tetragonal space group I41/a, with Z=8 in a cell of dimensions a=17.688(2), c=10.408(1) Å. The structure is built up of centrosymmetric neutral dimers [Cu2(HCOO)4(dmso)2], where four bidentate carboxylate anions form syn-syn bridges between the metal atoms which are in a 4 + 1 environment. Magnetic susceptibility data show that the copper atoms are strongly antiferromagnetically coupled with J=-434 cm-1. The obtained triplet-singlet energy gap is compared with those reported…

The Series of Molecular Conductors and Superconductors ET4[AFe(C2O4)3]·PhX (ET = bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene; (C2O4)2– = oxalate; A+ = H3O+…

2011

An extensive series of radical salts formed by the organic donor bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (ET), the paramagnetic tris(oxalato)ferrate(III) anion [Fe(C(2)O(4))(3)](3-), and halobenzene guest molecules has been synthesized and characterized. The change of the halogen atom in this series has allowed the study of the effect of the size and charge polarization on the crystal structures and physical properties while keeping the geometry of the guest molecule. The general formula of the salts is ET(4)[A(I)Fe(C(2)O(4))(3)]·G with A/G = H(3)O(+)/PhF (1); H(3)O(+)/PhCl (2); H(3)O(+)/PhBr (3), and K(+)/PhI (4), (crystal data at room temperature: (1) monoclinic, space group C2/c with a = 1…

A novel polynitrile ligand with different coordination modes: Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of the series [M(tcnoprOH)2(H2O)2] (M=Mn, …

2008

International audience; A novel polynitrile ligand (tcnoprOH− = [(NC)2CC(OCH2CH2CH2OH)C(CN)2]−) with up to five potentially coordinating groups has been synthesized in a one-pot reaction from a cyclic acetal and malononitrile. The combination of this novel ligand with different transition metal ions has led to the synthesis of two different structural types with the same formula but with different coordination modes in the ligand. Mn(II) and Cu(II) lead to a μ2-N,O-coordinating mode in the series of compounds formulated as [M(N,O-tcnoprOH)2(H2O)2] (M = MnII (1) and CuII (2)), whereas Co(II) and, most probably Ni(II), lead to a μ2-N,N′-coordinating mode in [Co(N,N′-tcnoprOH)2(H2O)2] (3). Bot…

DNA cleavage reaction induced by dimeric copper(II) complexes of N-substituted thiazole sulfonamides

2005

A new dinuclear copper(II) complex has been synthesised and structurally characterised: [Cu2(tz-ben)4] (Htz-ben = N-thiazol-2-yl-benzenesulfonamide). Its crystal structure, magnetic properties and electronic paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra were studied in detail. In the compound the metal centres are bridged by four non-linear triatomic NCN groups. The coordination geometry of the copper ions in the dinuclear entity is distorted square pyramidal (4+1). Two thiazole N and two sulfonamido N atoms occupy the equatorial positions and one sulfonamido O atom is in the axial position. Magnetic susceptibility data show a strong antiferromagnetic coupling, -2J = 114.1 cm(-1). The EPR spectra of…
