Abstract
Chemical modulation on the structures and physical properties of the coordination complexes is of great interest for the preparation of new functional materials. By changing the acidity or basicity of the reaction medium, the deprotonation degree of a multidentate ligand with multiple active protons, H4daps (H4daps = N',N'″-((1E,1'E)-pyridine-2,6-diylbis(ethan-1-yl-1-ylidene))bis(2-hydroxybenzohydrazide)), can be regulated on purpose. With this ligand of different deprotonation and charges, three new DyIII complexes ([Dy(H3daps)(CH3COO)2(EtOH)]·CH3COOH (1Dy), [Dy2(H2daps)2(EtOH)2(H2O)2(MeOH)2](CF3SO3)2·(H2O)2 (2Dy), and [Dy3(H1daps)2(H2daps)(μ3-OH)(EtOH)(H2O)] (3Dy)) of different nuclearities (mono-, di-, and trinuclear for 1Dy to 3Dy, respectively) have been synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. Analyses on the related bond lengths and resulting hydrogen bond modes in the complexes provide the details of the deprotonation position and the charge of the ligands, which can be in the form of H3daps-, H2daps2-, and H1daps3-. Interestingly, the more deprotonated ligand can act as a bridging ligand between the DyIII centers using the phenol and/or carbonyl oxygen atoms, which leads to the multinuclear structures. Magnetic studies on these complexes revealed that complex 1Dy is a field-induced single-molecule magnet (SMM), while complexes 2Dy and 3Dy show SMM behavior under a zero dc field.
