多酸构筑的单分子磁体

设计合成具有单分子磁体行为的分子磁性材料近年来受到广泛关注. 合成单分子磁体的一个常用策略是利用有机多齿含氧或含氮配体将各种自旋载体组装成簇,使之具有高基态自旋值(S)和负的单轴磁各向异性值(D),进而满足形成单分子磁体所需的磁能垒. 令人感兴趣的是近年来多酸发展成为一类构筑新型单分子磁体的无机建筑基元. 多酸是一类独特的具有富氧表面、可控的尺寸、形状和电荷的无机纳米级金属氧簇,同时,一系列缺位多酸衍生物能够结合各种过渡金属或稀土离子形成多核金属簇合物. 近五年来,多酸已作为一类无机多齿含氧配体成功构筑系列具有单分子磁体行为的新型过渡金属簇合物、稀土簇合物和3d-4f杂金属簇合物. 特别是一些缺位多酸配体能够为稀土离子提供完美的配体场,进而构筑新一代的单离子磁体. 此外,高自旋、磁各向异性单元(如单分子磁体)还可被均匀分散在具有孔道特征的多酸三级结构中,形成具有单分子磁体行为的多酸基复合材料. 最近,以多酸为模板构筑具有单分子磁体行为的多核簇合物也取得了新进展. 本综述旨在对近五年来利用多酸构筑的单分子磁体化合物进行评论,重点阐述利用多酸设计合成单分子磁体的策略、多酸在单分子磁体化合物结构中的作用和优势,以及多酸构筑单分子磁体这一研究课题的发展前景.

Magnetic Relaxation Studies on Trigonal Bipyramidal Cobalt(II) Complexes

We report the preparation and the full characterization of a novel mononuclear trigonal bipyramidal Co^II complex [Co(NS₃^iPr)Br](BPh₄) ( 1 ) with the tetradentate sulfur‐containing ligand NS₃^iPr (N(CH₂CH₂SCH(CH₃)₂)₃). The comparison of its magnetic behaviour with those of two previously reported compounds [Co(NS₃^iPr)Cl](BPh₄) ( 2 ) and [Co(NS₃^tBu)Br](ClO₄) ( 3 ) (NS₃^tBu=N(CH₂CH₂SC(CH₃)₃)₃) with similar structures shows that 1 displays a single‐molecule magnet behaviour with the longest magnetic relaxation time (0.051 s) at T=1.8 K, which is almost thirty times larger than that of 3 (0.0019 s) and more than three times larger than that of 2 (0.015 s), though its effective energy barrier (26 cm^?1) is smaller. Compound 1 , which contains two crystallographically independent molecules, presents smaller rhombic parameters (E=1.45 and 0.59 cm^?1) than 2 (E=2.05 and 1.02 cm^?1) and 3 (E=2.00 and 0.80 cm^?1) obtained from theoretical calculations. Compounds 2 and 3 have almost the same axial (D) and rhombic (E) parameter values, but present a large difference of their effective energy barrier and magnetic relaxation which may be attributed to the larger volume of BPh₄^? than ClO₄^? leading to larger diamagnetic dilution (weaker magnetic dipolar interaction) for 2 than for 3 . The combination of these factors leads to a much slower magnetic relaxation for 1 than for the two other compounds.     

Magnetic Bistability of Individual Single‐Molecule Magnets Grafted on Single‐Wall Carbon Nanotubes

A POM to remember : Hexanuclear Fe^III polyoxometalate (POM) single‐molecule magnets (see structure) can be noncovalently assembled on the surface of single‐wall carbon nanotubes. Complementary characterization techniques (see TEM image and magnetic hysteresis loops) demonstrate the integrity and bistability of the individual molecules, which could be used to construct single‐molecule memory devices.

     

Slow Magnetic Relaxation from Hard‐Axis Metal Ions in Tetranuclear Single‐Molecule Magnets

We report the synthesis of the novel heterometallic complex [Fe₃Cr(L)₂(dpm)₆]?Et₂O ( Fe₃CrPh ) (Hdpm=dipivaloylmethane, H₃L=2‐hydroxymethyl‐2‐phenylpropane‐1,3‐diol), obtained by replacing the central iron(III) atom by a chromium(III) ion in an Fe₄ propeller‐like single‐molecule magnet (SMM). Structural and analytical data, high‐frequency EPR (HF‐EPR) and magnetic studies indicate that the compound is a solid solution of chromium‐centred Fe₃Cr (S=6) and Fe₄ (S=5) species in an 84:16 ratio. Although SMM behaviour is retained, the |D| parameter is considerably reduced as compared with the corresponding tetra‐iron(III) propeller (D=?0.179 vs. ?0.418 cm^?1), and results in a lower energy barrier for magnetisation reversal (U_eff/k_B=7.0 vs. 15.6 K). The origin of magnetic anisotropy in Fe₃CrPh has been fully elucidated by preparing its Cr‐ and Fe‐doped Ga₄ analogues, which contain chromium(III) in the central position (c) and iron(III) in two magnetically distinct peripheral sites (p1 and p2). According to HF‐EPR spectra, the Cr and Fe dopants have hard‐axis anisotropies with D_c=0.470(5) cm^?1, E_c=0.029(1) cm^?1, D_p1=0.710(5) cm^?1, E_p1=0.077(3) cm^?1, D_p2=0.602(5) cm^?1, and E_p2=0.101(3) cm^?1. Inspection of projection coefficients shows that contributions from dipolar interactions and from the central chromium(III) ion cancel out almost exactly. As a consequence, the easy‐axis anisotropy of Fe₃CrPh is entirely due to the peripheral, hard‐axis‐type iron(III) ions, the anisotropy tensors of which are necessarily orthogonal to the threefold molecular axis. A similar contribution from peripheral ions is expected to rule the magnetic anisotropy in the tetra‐iron(III) complexes currently under investigation in the field of molecular spintronics.     

Adding Remnant Magnetization and Anisotropic Exchange to Propeller‐like Single‐Molecule Magnets through Chemical Design

The selective replacement of the central iron(III) ion with vanadium(III) in a tetrairon(III) propeller‐shaped single‐molecule magnet has allowed us to increase the ground spin state from S=5 to S=13/2. As a consequence of the pronounced anisotropy of vanadium(III), the blocking temperature for the magnetization has doubled. Moreover, a significant remnant magnetization, practically absent in the parent homometallic molecule, has been achieved owing to the suppression of zero‐field tunneling of the magnetization for the half‐integer molecular spin. Interestingly, the contribution of vanadium(III) to the magnetic anisotropy barrier occurs through the anisotropic exchange interaction with iron(III) spins and not through single ion anisotropy as in most single‐molecule magnets.     

第一过渡系金属-镝单分子磁体研究进展与展望

第一过渡系中的顺磁性离子Cr^Ⅲ、Mn^Ⅱ/Mn^Ⅲ、Fe^Ⅱ/Fe^Ⅲ、Co^Ⅱ、Ni^Ⅱ和Cu^Ⅱ及抗磁性离子Co^Ⅲ和Zn^Ⅱ均可与Dy^Ⅲ在多齿螯合配体配位下形成单分子磁体配合物。在本文中,我们阐述或汇总了几乎所有的第一过渡系金属-镝单分子磁体。对于由顺磁性第一过渡金属离子和Dy^Ⅲ离子形成的配合物,有2个有趣的现象需要引起人们的注意：一是一些Cr-Dy配合物具有较高的阻塞温度和较大的矫顽场,这可归功于配合物内Cr^Ⅲ离子和Dy^Ⅲ离子之间较强的磁耦合作用（|J|>10 cm^-1）。二是报道的Fe^Ⅱ₂-Dy配合物的能垒可达到319 cm^-1（459 K）,这在第一过渡系金属-镝单分子磁体中也是比较高的。这可能与Fe^Ⅱ₂-Dy中Dy^Ⅲ具有较高的轴向对称性（D_5h）有关,且从头计算表明该配合物中Dy的第一激发态也具有较高的轴向对称性。除了部分Cr-Dy和Fe^Ⅱ-Dy配合物外,其他顺磁性第一过渡金属-Dy的能垒较低,这可能由配合物内顺磁离子间弱的磁耦合造成的。为了消除磁耦合对磁弛豫行为影响,近年来人们关注于使用抗磁性第一过渡金属离子与Dy^Ⅲ构建单分子磁体配合物。相比其他核数的Zn-Dy配合物,三核Zn₂Dy配合物被报道的数目最多且研究得最为深入,这可能与较易调控Zn₂Dy中Dy配位几何对称性有关。最后,我们提出了几点关于进一步提升第一过渡系金属-镝单分子磁体的磁性能的建议,其中最为重要的是控制Dy配位几何的轴向对称性及Dy的基态m_J的电荷分布。对于第一过渡系金属-镝单分子磁体中的Dy^Ⅲ离子,Dy^Ⅲ基态m_J的电荷与配体的电荷之间的静电排斥应该降到最低。     

Tuning the Magnetic Interactions and Relaxation Dynamics of Dy2 Single‐Molecule Magnets

Efficient modulation of single‐molecule magnet (SMM) behavior was realized by deliberate structural modification of the Dy₂ cores of [Dy₂( a ′ povh )₂(OAc)₂(DMF)₂] ( 1 ) and [Zn₂Dy₂( a′povh )₂(OAc)₆] ? 4 H₂O ( 2 ; H₂ a ′ povh =N′‐[amino(pyrimidin‐2‐yl)methylene]‐o‐vanilloyl hydrazine). Compound 1 having fourfold linkage between the two dysprosium ions shows high‐performance SMM behavior with a thermal energy barrier of 322.1 K, whereas only slow relaxation is observed for compound 2 with only twofold connection between the dysprosium ions. This remarkable discrepancy is mainly because of strong axiality in 1 due to one pronounced covalent bond, as revealed by experimental and theoretical investigations. The significant antiferromagnetic interaction derived from bis(μ₂‐O) and two acetate bridging groups was found to be crucial in leading to a nonmagnetic ground state in 1 , by suppressing zero‐field quantum tunneling of magnetization.     

Molecular and Crystal Magnetic Engineering of Polymetallic Coupling System: From Magnetic Molecules to Molecular Magnets

One of the main challenges in the field of molecular materials is the design of molecular ferromagnets. General design strategy includes two steps, that is molecular magnetic engineering and crystal magnetic engineering. The first step is the synthesis of ferromagnetically coupled polymetallic systems. The second step is the assembly of polymetallic systems with muti‐dimensional structure and exhibiting a ferromagnetic transition. This paper summarized the strategies of molecular design and crystal engineering allowed to obtain such systems and our efforts in the fields of molecular magnetism and molecular‐based magnets.
