High-dimensional mixed-valence copper cyanide complexes: Syntheses, structural characterizations and magnetism
2009
International audience; Reactions of CuCl 2 with different CN complexes in presence of a neutral ancillary ligand lead to two novel mixed-valence Cu complexes [Cu II (bpy)Cu I (CN) 3 ] n , 1 (bpy=2,2′-bipyridine) and {[Cu II (tn) 2 ][Cu I 4 (CN) 6 ]} n 2 (tn=1,3-diaminopropane). For compound 1, the asymmetric unit involves two Cu ions Cu1 and Cu2 (Cu I and Cu II centres, respectively) which strongly differ in their environments. The Cu1 ion presents a CuC 4 pseudo-tetrahedral geometry, while the Cu2 ion presents a CuN 5 slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The extended structure of 1 is generated by three cyano ligands which differ in their coordination modes. One CN group has a μ …
Heterometallic CoII-CoIII-MII alkoxido-bridged heptanuclear motifs (M = Cu, Zn). Syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic properties
2018
Two new alkoxido-bridged heterometallic complexes of formula [CoIICoIII 3CuII 3(dea)6(CH3COO)3](ClO4)0.75(CH3COO)1.25 (1) and [CoII 2CoIII 2ZnII 3(tea)2(piv)6(CH3O)2(OH)2(CH3OH)2]·H2O 2 (H2dea=diethanolamine, H3tea=triethanolamine and Hpiv=pivalic acid) have been assembled using aminoalcohol ligands. The cationic core in 1 possesses a threefold crystallographic axis, and it exhibits a set of three copper(II), one cobalt(II) and three cobalt(III) ions arranged as a hexagon of alternating copper(II) and cobalt(III) ions around the central cobalt(II) ion. Each edge of the hexagon is defined by a double alkoxido bridge, the outer one being bis-monodentate with copper(II)-cobalt(III) pair wherea…
Allocation of Ambipolar Charges on an Organic Diradical with a Vinylene-Phenylenediyne Bridge.
2021
Two redox and magnetically active perchlorotriphenylmethyl (• PTM) radical units have been connected as end-capping groups to a bis(phenylene)diyne chain through vinylene linkers. Negative and positive charged species have been generated, and the influence of the bridge on their stabilization is discussed. Partial reduction of the electron-withdrawing • PTM radicals results in a class-II mixed-valence system with the negative charge located on the terminal PTM units, proving the efficiency of the conjugated chain for the electron transport between the two terminal sites. Counterintuitively, the oxidation process does not occur along the electron-rich bridge but on the vinylene units. The • …
Electron delocalization in mixed-valence Keggin polyoxometalates. Ab initio calculation of the local effective transfer integrals and its consequence…
2002
We present a quantitative evaluation of the influence of the electron transfer on the magnetic properties of mixed-valence polyoxometalates reduced by two electrons. For that purpose, we extract from valence-spectroscopy ab initio calculations on embedded fragments the value of the transfer integrals between W nearest-neighbor atoms in a mixed-valence alphaPW(12)O(40) polyoxowolframate Keggin anion. In contradiction with what is usually assumed, we show that the electron transfer between edge-sharing and corner-sharing WO(6) octahedra have very close values. Considering fragments of various ranges, we analyze the accuracy of calculations on fragments based on only two WO(5) pyramids which s…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new cyanide-bridged mixed-valence copper(I)/copper(II) clathrate
2013
A unique cyanide-bridge mixed-valence CuI/CuII clathrate of formula [CuI2(CN)3][{CuII(tren)}2(μ-CN)](CF3SO3)2 [tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine] containing cyanide-bridged [{CuII(tren)}2(μ-CN)]3 + binuclear cations stacked between anionic honeycomb layered copper(I) cyanide networks, was synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies showed that the cyanide bridge mediates a strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper(II) centers (J = − 160 cm− 1, the spin Hamiltonian being defined as H = − JSA⋅SB).
