Manganese(ii)-carboxylate-pseudohalide systems derived from 1,4-bis(4-carboxylatopyridinium-1-methylene)benzene: structures and magnetism

Synthesis and magnetic properties of two Mn-based coordination polymers constructed by a mixed-ligand strategy

Two Mn(ii) CPs have been synthesized by mixed-ligand strategy and measured for their magnetic properties. Moreover, analysis of the magnetic structure–effect relationship indicates that 1 and 2 have different Mn chains of magnetic interactions.

Novel manganese(ii) and cobalt(ii) 2D polymers containing alternating chains with mixed azide and carboxylate bridges: crystal structure and magnetic properties

Two new Mn(ii) and Co(ii) complexes based on AABAA alternating chains with mixed azide and carboxylate bridges were synthesized, structurally and magnetically studied.

The structural diversity and properties of nine new viologen based zwitterionic metal–organic frameworks

A viologen based ligand has been explored as a functional building block to synthesize a series of nine new zwitterionic metal–organic frameworks with this contribution reporting on their structural, thermal and photochromic properties.

Different topologies in three manganese-μ-azido 1D compounds: magnetic behavior and DFT-quantum Monte Carlo calculations

The syntheses and structural characterization of three new monodimensional azido-bridged manganese(ii) complexes with empirical formulae [Mn(N3)2(aminopyz)2]n (1), [Mn(N3)2(4-azpy)2]n (2) and [Mn(N3)2(4-Bzpy)2]n (3) (pyz = pyrazine (1,4-diazine)), 4-azpy = 4-azidopyridine and 4-Bzpy = 4-benzoylpyridine) are reported. 1 is a monodimensional compound with double EO azido bridges, 2 is an alternating monodimensional compound with double end-on and double end-to-end azido bridges in the sequence di-EO-di-EE and 3 is a monodimensional compound with double end-on and double end-to-end azido bridges in the sequence di-EO-di-EO-diEO-di-EO-di-EE. The magnetic properties of 1-3 are reported. Periodic DFT calculations were performed to estimate the J values and quantum Monte Carlo simulations were carried out using the calculated J values to check their accuracy in comparison with the experimental magnetic measurements. From this theoretical analysis, two appealing features of the di-EO Mn(ii) compounds can be extracted: first, the exchange coupling becomes more ferromagnetic when the Mn-N-Mn bridging angle becomes larger and the spin density of the bridging nitrogen atoms has an opposite sign to that of the Mn(II) centers.

Influence of ionic liquids on the syntheses and structures of Mn(ii) coordination polymers based on multidentate N-heterocyclic aromatic ligands and bridging carboxylate ligands

[RMI]Br probably serves as a template directing agent for the formation of a cluster helicate in 2, while it serves as a mineralizing agent in 3–6. Additionally, [RMI]Br could obviously improve the crystal yield of 7.

Mn(ii) coordination polymers assembled from 8 or 9-connected trinuclear secondary building units: topology analysis and research of magnetic properties

Two highly-connected trinuclear Mn(ii)-cluster polymers were successfully fabricated. The FC and ZFC data of 1 show a divergence over a temperature range of 40–3.5 K. 2 features a ferrimagnetic chain with a (5/2, 10/2) spin topology.

Poly[[μ-N,N'-bis-(2-hy-droxy-eth-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-propane-1,3-diaminium-κ(2) O:O']tetra-μ-bromido-dibromidodimanganese(II)]

The asymmetric unit of the title three-dimensional coordination polymer, [Mn2Br6(C11H28N2O2)] n , consists of one Mn(II) cation, half of a dicationic N,N'-bis-(2-hy-droxy-eth-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetra-methyl-propane-1,3-diaminium ligand (L) (the other half being generated by a twofold rotation axis), and three bromide ions. The Mn(II) cation is coordinated by a single L ligand via the hy-droxy O atom and by five bromide ions, resulting in a distorted octa-hedral MnBr5O coordination geometry. Four of the bromide ions are bridging to two adjacent Mn(II) atoms, thereby forming polymeric chains along the a and b axes. The L units act as links between neighbouring Mn-(μ-Br)2-Mn chains, also forming a polymeric continuum along the c axis, which completes the formation of a three-dimensional network. Classical O-H⋯Br hydrogen bonds are present. The distance between adjacent Mn(II) atoms is 4.022 (1) Å.
