Magnetic properties of hybrid molecular materials based on oxalato complexes

2003

Abstract The use of [MIII(ox)3]3− (MIII=Ru, Rh) complexes as building blocks for hybrid molecular materials is highlighted with two different synthetic approaches. The first strategy is the combination of organic donors and [RuIII(ox)3]3− units, resulting in the radical salt of formula TTF3[Ru(ox)3]·0.5EtOH·4H2O (1) which shows coexistence of paramagnetism and semiconducting properties. The second approach is the synthesis of extended 2D bimetallic oxalato-bridged networks of general formula [FeCp2 *][MIIRh(ox)3] in which paramagnetic layers of decamethylferricinium cations are alternated with paramagnetic bimetallic layers.

A two-dimensional radical salt based upon BEDT-TTF and the dimeric, magnetic anion [Fe(tdas)2]22−: (BEDT-TTF)2[Fe(tdas)2] (tdas = 1,2,5-thiadiazole-3…

2002

In an attempt to synthesize new synthetic metals which couple magnetic properties to conductivity, we prepared the novel salt (BEDT-TTF)2[Fe(tdas)2] [BEDT-TTF = bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene, hereafter referred to as ET; tdas = 1,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dithiolate] by the electrocrystallization technique. The crystal structure of this compound, as determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction, contains conducting, organic ET layers separated by dimerized, magnetic [Fe(tdas)2]22− anions. Due to the magnetic insulating ground electronic state of the ET layer, thermally activated conductivity is observed, with a room temperature value of about 1 S cm−1. This salt was also characterized by…

Interfacial Self-Assembly of Water-Soluble Cationic Porphyrins for the Reduction of Oxygen to Water

2012

Meet at the border: Assembly of the water-soluble cobalt tetrakis(N-methylpyridinium-4-yl)porphyrin [CoTMPyP]4+ at soft interfaces is enhanced and stabilized by its interfacial interaction with the lipophilic anion (C6F5)4B−. The supramolecular structure thus formed (see picture) provides excellent catalytic activity in the four-electron reduction of oxygen.

Redox-Responsive Host–Guest Chemistry of a Flexible Cage with Naphthalene Walls

2020

"Naphthocage", a naphthalene-based organic cage, reveals very strong binding (up to 1010 M-1) to aromatic (di)cationic guests, i.e., the tetrathiafulvalene mono- and dication and methyl viologen. Intercalation of the guests between two naphthalene walls is mediated by C-H···O, C-H···π, and cation···π interactions. The guests can be switched into and out of the cage by redox processes with high binding selectivity. Oxidation of the flexible cage itself in the absence of a guest leads to a stable radical cation with the oxidized naphthalene intercalated between and stabilized by the other two. Encapsulated guest cations are released from the cavity upon cage oxidation, paving the way to futur…

Electronic, Structural and Functional Versatility in Tetrathiafulvalene-Lanthanide Metal-Organic Frameworks

2019

<div>Tetrathiafulvalene-Lanthanide (TTF-Ln) Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are an interesting class of multifunctional materials in which porosity can be combined with electronic properties such as electrical conductivity, redox activity, luminescence and magnetism. Herein we report a new family of isostructural TTF-Ln MOFs, denoted as <b>MUV-5(Ln)</b> (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er), exhibiting semiconducting properties as a consequence of the short intermolecular S···S contacts established along the chain direction between partially oxidised TTF moieties. In addition, this family shows photoluminescence properties and single-molecule magnetic behaviour, finding near-infrared …

Breathing-Dependent Redox Activity in a Tetrathiafulvalene-Based Metal–Organic Framework

2018

"Breathing" metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that involve changes in their structural and physical properties upon an external stimulus are an interesting class of crystalline materials due to their range of potential applications including chemical sensors. The addition of redox activity opens up a new pathway for multifunctional "breathing" frameworks. Herein, we report the continuous breathing behavior of a tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-based MOF, namely MUV-2, showing a reversible swelling (up to ca. 40% of the volume cell) upon solvent adsorption. Importantly, the planarity of the TTF linkers is influenced by the breathing behavior of the MOF, directly impacting on its electrochemical proper…

Influence of interpenetration on the flexibility of MUV-2

2019

<p>The crystal structure of an interpenetrated tetrathiafulvalene(TTF)- based metal-organic framework (MOF) is reported. This MOF, denoted MUV-2-i, is the interpenetrated analogue of the hierarchical and flexible MUV-2. Interestingly, the large flexibility exhibited by MUV-2 upon polar solvent adsorption is considerably reduced in the interpenetrated form which can be explained by short S···S interactions between adjacent TTF-based ligands ensuring more rigidity to the framework. In addition, porosity of MUV-2-i significantly decreased in comparison to MUV-2 as shown by the reduced free volume in the crystal structure.</p>
