Abstract: | The bis(benzylammonium)tetrahalogenochromate(II), (C6H5CH2NH3)2CrBr3. 3Cl0. 7, has been synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure is related to that of K2NiF4. The compound is ferromagnetic and the Curie temperature TC (TC= 49 K) has been measured by a mutual inductance technique. The susceptibility increases sharply at TC and then shows a drop-off below TC, typical of a single-domain powder sample. The compound is found to behave as a typical 2D easy plane ferromagnet. |
