The interaction of diethyl (pyridyn-2-ylmethyl)phosphonate (2-pmpe) with Cu(NO₃)₂ · 6H₂O leads to a partial hydrolysis of the starting ligand and formation of the compound of the formula Cu₂(2-mpmpe)₂(H₂O)₂(NO₃)₂, where 2-mpmpe = monoethyl (pyridyn-2-ylmethyl)phosphonate.

Preparation, crystal structure and magnetic properties of Ni2(dpa)2(pyz)(H2O)4

A Ni(II)-based dimer structure, Ni₂(dpa)₂(pyz)(H₂O)₄ (dpa = 2,6-pyridine dicarboxylic acid dianion, pyz: pyrazine), has been prepared using hydrothermal synthesis and the solid-state magnetic properties have been evaluated. In the dimeric structure, the planar tridentate 2,6-pyridine dicarboxylic acid dianion coordinates to a Ni(II) ion in a meridional fashion and defines the equatorial plane of the complex. The fourth equatorial coordination site is then occupied by a pyrazine molecule that functions as a linear bidentate ligand bridging two Ni(II) complexes to form a dimer. The axial positions of each Ni(II) complex are occupied by two water molecules to form a distorted octahedral geometry. Susceptibility and magnetization measurements show that both intra-dimer and inter-dimer exchange interactions are weakly antiferromagnetic. The fitting of the magnetic data also indicates the existence of a large axial zero-field splitting term that contributes to the small magnetization even under high fields.
