Coexistence of Spin Canting and Metamagnetism in a One-Dimensional Mn(III) Complex Bridged by a Single End-to-End Azide

Two Metal-Organic Frameworks Based on Hexanuclear Cobalt-Hydroxyl Clusters or a Manganese-Hydroxyl Chain from Triangular [MII3(μ3-OH)] (M = Co and Mn) Units: Antiferromagnetic and Spin-Canting Antiferromagnetic Ordering with Soft-Magnetic Behavior

Three-dimensional highly connected isonicotinic acid-base metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), [Co^II₆(μ₃-OH)₂(in)₇(HCOO)₃H₂O]·4DMF (1) and [Mn^II₃(μ₃-OH)(in)₃(CH₃COO)₂] (2) (Hin = isonicotinic acid), have been successfully prepared. Compounds 1 and 2 were constructed from planar Co₆ cluster SBUs or rare 1D manganese-hydroxyl chain SBUs, respectively. Both SBUs contain triangular M^II₃(OH) (M = Co and Mn) central units, which are connected by rare syn,anti,syn,anti- and syn,syn,anti-coordinated formic acid or acetic acid. Both compounds 1 and 2 have good thermal stability, while compound 2 also exhibits an extraordinarily high moisture stability. Magnetic studies demonstrate that 1 shows antiferromagnetic behavior, and 2 exhibits spin-canting antiferromagnetic ordering with soft-magnetic behavior.

Three Chiral Schiff-Base-Manganese(III)-Based Complexes: Synthesis, Structures and Magnetic Properties

Three chiral manganese(III) Schiff-base complexes [Mn(R,R-Salcy)(CH3OH)(N3)], [Mn(S,S-Salcy)(DMF)(N3)] (both monomers by X-structure determination) and the trinuclear complex (X-ray structure) {[Mn(R,R-Salcy)(H2O)]2[μ-Ni(CN)4]}·3CH3OH·H2O [Salcy = N,N′-(1,2-cyclohexanediylethylene)bis(salicylideneiminato)dianion)] have been synthesised. The trimeric complex shows weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the adjacent Mn(III) ions.

Two antiferrimagnetic tetrazolate–azido–copper(ii) coordination polymers, [Cu(tz)(N₃)]_n (1) and [Cu(tz)(N₃)(NH₃)₂]_n (2) with distinct topological structures were synthesized under different reaction conditions and structurally characterized.

4-Substituent pyridine directed cobalt(ii) azides: solvothermal synthesis, structure, and magnetic properties

Mononuclear and dinuclear manganese compounds stabilized by supramolecular interactions

New manganese compounds [Mn(HphpzMe)(2)(H(2)phpzMe)(HCO(2))] (1), [Mn(2)(phpzMe)(2)(HphpzMe)(2)(OCH(3))]·2CH(3)OH (2), Na{[Mn(HphpzPh)(phpzPh)(MeOH)(2)](2)}(HCO(2)) (3), [Mn(HphpzPh)(2)(EtOH)(2)]ClO(4)·2EtOH (4) and [Mn(HphpzPh)(2)N(3)] (5) were synthesized and characterized with various techniques. 1, 4 and 5 are mononuclear manganese(III) compounds, 2 is a mixed-valence dinuclear manganese(III/IV) compound, and 3 is a trinuclear compound containing two manganese(III) ions and a sodium(I) ion. A remarkable feature is the spontaneous formation of the formate ion as a result of the methanol or methoxide oxidation in compounds 1 and 3. Using ethanol precludes the formation of the formate and compound 4 is obtained. The molecular structure of all compounds is stabilized by supramolecular interactions, including strong hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions.

Two novel cyanide-bridged bimetallic magnetic chains derived from manganese(III) Schiff bases and hexacyanochromate(III) building blocks

Two novel complexes, [{Mn(salen)}(2){Mn(salen)(CH(3)OH)}{Cr(CN)(6)}](n)·2nCH(3)CN·nCH(3)OH (1) and [Mn(5-Clsalmen)(CH(3)OH)(H(2)O)](2n)[{Mn(5-Clsalmen)(μ-CN)}Cr(CN)(5)](n)·5.5nH(2)O (2) (salen(2-) = N,N'-ethylene-bis(salicylideneiminato) dianion; 5-Clsalmen(2-) = N,N'-(1-methylethylene)-bis(5-chlorosalicylideneiminato) dianion), were synthesized and structurally characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The structural analyses show that complex 1 consists of one-dimensional (1D) alternating chains formed by the [{Cr(CN)(6)}{Mn(salen)}(4){Mn(salen)(CH(3)OH)}(2)](3+) heptanuclear cations and [Cr(CN)(6)](3-) anions. While in complex 2, the hexacyanochromate(III) anion acts as a bis-monodentate ligand through two trans-cyano groups to bridge two [Mn(5-Clsalmen)](+) cations to form a straight chain. The magnetic analysis indicates that complex 1 shows three-dimensional (3D) antiferromagnetic ordering with the Néel temperature of 5.0 K, and it is a metamagnet displaying antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic transition at a critical field of about 2.6 kOe at 2 K. Complex 2 behaves as a molecular magnet with Tc = 3.0 K.
