Interplay of Anisotropic Exchange Interactions and Single-Ion Anisotropy in Single-Chain Magnets Built from Ru/Os Cyanidometallates(III) and Mn(III) Complex

Two novel 1D heterobimetallic compounds {[Mn^III(SB²⁺)M^III(CN)₆]·4H₂O}_n (SB²⁺ = N,N'-ethylenebis(5-trimethylammoniomethylsalicylideneiminate) based on orbitally degenerate cyanidometallates [Os^III(CN)₆]^3- (1) and [Ru^III(CN)₆]^3- (2) and Mn^III Schiff base complex were synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. Their crystal structures consist of electrically neutral, well-isolated chains composed of alternating [M^III(CN)₆]^3- anions and square planar [Mn^III(SB²⁺)]³⁺ cations bridged by cyanide groups. These -ion magnetic anisotropy of Mn^III centers. These results indicate that the presence of compounds exhibit single-chain magnet (SCM) behavior with the energy barriers of Δτ₁/k_B = 73 K, Δτ₂/k_B = 41.5 K (1) and Δτ₁/k_B = 51 K, Δτ₂ = 27 K (2). Blocking temperatures of T_B = 2.8, 2.1 K and magnetic hysteresis with coercive fields (at 1.8 K) of 8000, 1600 Oe were found for 1 and 2, respectively. Theoretical analysis of the magnetic data reveals that their single-chain magnet behavior is a product of a complicated interplay of extremely anisotropic triaxial exchange interactions in M^III(4d/5d)-CN-Mn^III fragments: -J_xS_M^xS_Mn^x-J_yS_M^yS_Mn^y-J_zS_M^zS_Mn^z, with opposite sign of exchange parameters J_x = -22, J_y = +28, J_z = -26 cm^-1 and J_x = -18, J_y = +20, J_z = -18 cm^-1 in 1 and 2, respectively) and single orbitally degenerate [Os^III(CN)₆]^3- and [Ru^III(CN)₆]^3- spin units with unquenched orbital angular momentum in the chain compounds 1 and 2 leads to a peculiar regime of slow magnetic relaxation, which is beyond the scope of the conventional Glaubers's 1D Ising model and anisotropic Heisenberg model.

Cyano-bridged polynuclear coordination compounds derived from paramagnetic [Mn(H2daptsc)]2+ and photochromic [Fe(CN)5NO]2− building blocks

Metal complexes with H₂daptsc ligand were first used as building blocks to create polynuclear multifunctional materials.

The first cyanide rhenium(i)–silver(i) clusters were synthesized in the course of simple one-pot high-yielding reactions.

The first photochromic bimetallic assemblies based on Mn(iii) and Mn(ii) Schiff-base (salpn, dapsc) complexes and pentacyanonitrosylferrate

Assembly of cyanometalate-functionalized phosphotungstates with magnetic properties and bifunctional electrocatalytic activities

Two cyanometalate-functionalized Dawson type phosphotungstates with a “Netherlands windmills” shape have been prepared under conventional reaction conditions. Their magnetic properties and electrocatalytic activity were investigated.

A single chain magnet involving hexacyanoosmate

The first single chain magnet (SCM) based on the orbitally degenerate [Os(CN)₆]³⁻ anion was prepared. The high energy barriers are a result of interplay of Mn³⁺ single-ion magnetic anisotropy and highly anisotropic three axes exchange interactions between the paramagnetic centres.

Bis(2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline)copper(I) penta-cyanido-nitro-soferrate(II)

The asymmetric unit of the title complex [Cu(C₁₄H₁₂N₂)₂]₂[Fe(CN)₅(NO)], consists of a [Cu(dmp)₂]⁺ cation (dmp is 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) and half an [Fe(CN)₅(NO)]²⁻ anion. The anion is disordered across an inversion center with the Fe^II ion slightly offset (ca 0.205Å) from the inversion center in the direction of the disordered trans-coordinating CN/NO ligands. The anion has a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry. The Cu^I ion is coordinated by two phenanthroline ligands in a distorted tetra­hedral geometry. The dihedral angle between the phenanthroline ligands is 77.16 (4) Å. In the crystal, the cations are connected to the anions by weak C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds. In addition, weak π–π stacking inter­actions are observed, with centroid–centroid distances in the range 3.512 (3)–3.859 (3) Å.
