Three cyanide-bridged dodecanuclear macrocyclic wheel-like complexes [Cr(bpmb)(CN)₂]₆[Mn(5-Brsalpn)]₆·12H₂O (1), [Co(bpmb)(CN)₂]₆[Mn(5-Brsalpn)]₆·12H₂O (2) and [Co(bpmb)(CN)₂]₆[Mn(5-Clsalpn)]₆·24H₂O·8CH₃CN (3) [bpmb²⁻= 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4-methylbenzenate dianion; 5-Brsalpn²⁻ = N,N′-propylenebis(5-bromosalicylideneaminato) dianion; 5-Clsalpn²⁻ = N,N′-propylenebis(5-chlorosalicylideneaminato) dianion] have been synthesized and their crystal structures and magnetic properties have been investigated. The three compounds are structurally isomorphous and consist of alternating Mn(III)-Schiff base cations and [M(bpmb)(CN)₂]⁻ anions, generating cyanide-bridged nanosized dodecanuclear macrocyclic structures with an approximate diameter of 2 nm. The study of the magnetic properties of complex 1 reveals an antiferromagnetic interaction between the Cr(III) and Mn(III) ions through the cyanide bridges. A best-fit to the magnetic susceptibility of the complex leads to a magnetic coupling constant of J _CrMn = −2.65(6) cm⁻¹ on the basis of a one-dimensional alternating chain model with the Hamiltonian $ H = - J_{CrMn} \sum\limits_{i = 0}^N {S_i \cdot S_{i + 1} } $ H = - J_{CrMn} \sum\limits_{i = 0}^N {S_i \cdot S_{i + 1} } .

Synthesis,crystal structures,and magnetic properties of three novel ferrocenecarboxylato-bridged lanthanide dimers

Three novel ferrocenecarboxylato-bridged lanthanide dimers [Gd2(mu 2-OOCFc)2(OOCFc)4(MeOH)2(H2O)2].2MeOH.2H2O (1) (Fc = (eta 5-C5H5)Fe(eta 5-C5H4)), [Nd2(mu 2-OOCFc)2(OOCFc)4(H2O)4].2MeOH.H2O (2), and [Y2(mu 2-OOCFc)2-(OOCFc)4(H2O)4].2MeOH (3) have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. In each complex, two Ln(III) (Ln = Gd, Nd, or Y) ions are bridged by two ferrocenecarboxylate anions as asymmetrically bridging ligands, leading to dimeric cores, [Ln2(mu 2-OOCFc)2]; each Ln(III) ion has an irregular polyhedral coordination environment with nine coordinated oxygen atoms derived from the ferrocenecarboxylate ligands and coordinated solvent molecules. In the solid-state structure of compound 1, [Gd2(mu 2-OOCFc)2(OOCFc)4(MeOH)2(H2O)2] groups are joined together by hydrogen bonds forming a two-dimensional network. Both compounds 2 and 3 show one-dimensional chain structures by hydrogen bonding; they are different from 1. Magnetic measurements show unexpected ferromagnetic coupling between the gadolinium(III) ions; the best fittings to the experimental magnetic susceptibilities gave J = 0.006 cm-1 and g = 2.0 for 1. The magnetic behavior for 2 was also studied in the temperature range of 1.8-300 K.

Synthesis, crystal structures, and photophysical properties of electron-accepting diethynylindenofluorenediones

A series of 6,12-bis[(trialkylsilyl)ethynyl]indeno[1,2-b]fluorene-5,11-diones has been synthesized. X-ray crystallographic analysis of these compounds reveals that triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) substitution on the alkyne terminus affords the largest number of intermolecular π-π interactions in the solid state. Conversely, use of trialkylsilyl groups smaller or larger than TIPS furnishes a variety of crystal-packing motifs that contain fewer π-π interactions. Electrochemical and photophysical data suggest that these molecules are excellent electron-accepting materials.

Treatments of p-ferrocenylbenzoate [p-NaOOCH₄C₆Fc, Fc=(η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(η⁵-C₅H₄)] with Ln(NO₃)₃·nH₂O afford seven p-ferrocenylbenzoate lanthanide complexes {[Ln(OOCH₄C₆Fc)₂(μ₂-OOCH₄C₆Fc)₂(H₂O)₂](H₃O)}_n [Ln=Ce (1), Pr (2), Sm (3), Eu (4), Gd (5), Tb (6) and Dy (7)].

Each Ln(III) ion adopts a dodecahedron coordination environment with eight coordinated oxygen atoms from two terminal monodentate coordinated FcC₆H₄COO⁻ units, two terminal monodentate coordinated H₂O molecules and four μ₂-⁻OOCH₄C₆Fc units. The luminescent spectra reveal that only 4 and 6 exhibit characteristic emissions of lanthanide ions, Eu(III) and Tb(III) ions, respectively. The variable-temperature magnetic properties of 5 and 7 suggest that a ferromagnetic coupling between spin carriers may exist in 5.     

Fabrication and magnetic properties of Ni nanospheres encapsulated in a fullerene-like carbon

A very simple, efficient, and economical synthetic technique, which produces fascinating fullerene-like Ni-C (graphitic) core-shell nanostructures at a relatively low temperature, is reported. The thermal dissociation of Ni acetylacetonate is carried out in a closed vessel cell (Swagelok) that was heated at 700 degrees C for 3 h. The encapsulation of ferromagnetic Ni nanospheres into the onion structured graphitic layers is obtained in a one-stage, single precursor reaction, without a catalyst, that possesses interesting magnetic properties. The magnetoresistance (MR) property of Ni nanospheres encapsulated in a fullerene-like carbon was measured, which shows large negative MR, of the order of 10%. The proposed mechanism for the formation of the Ni-C core-shell system is based on the segregation and the surface flux formed in the Ni and carbon particles during the reaction under autogenic pressure at elevated temperature.

Two novel complexes Ni(NITpPy)₂[N(CN)₂]₂ · 2H₂O (I) and Zn(NITpPy)₂[N(CN)₂]₂ · 2H₂O (II) (NITpPy = 2-(p-pyridyl)-4,4,5,5- tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide) were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectra, elemental analyses, and UV-Vis techniques. The crystal structures of both complexes have been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. Both complexes are of centrosymmetric distorted octahedral co-ordination geometry in which metal ions are bound to two dicyanamide anions, two water molecules, and two radicals through the nitrogen atom of pyridine rings and show one-dimensional chain structure via hydrogen bonds. The magnetic properties of complexes I and II were investigated in the temperature range 5–300 K and discussed in detail. The two compounds exhibit weak intermolecular antiferromagnetic interaction. In complex II, the diamagnetic metal zinc just plays the role of a bridge. The article was submitted by the authors in English.

The reaction of salicylaldoxime (H₂salox) with Mn(ClO₄)₂ · 6H₂O, NaN(CN)₂ and NEt₃ in MeOH affords a Mn^III₆ hexanuclear complex of [Mn₆O₂(salox)₆(MeOH)₆(NCNCONH₂)₂] (1), while reaction of H₂salox with MnCl₂ · 4H₂O and NEt₄OH in EtOH affords a Mn^III₆ hexanuclear complex of [Mn₆O₂(salox)₆(EtOH)₄(H₂O)₂Cl₂] (2). Both complexes 1 and 2 contain a [Mn^III₆(μ₃-O)₂]¹⁴⁺ core, which is a known structural type in the family of Mn₆ complexes. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibilities and magnetization measurement of complexes 1 and 2 have been carried out. Exchange interactions of metal centers for complexes 1 and 2 are fitted by a full diagonalization matrix method. The fitting results indicate that both complexes 1 and 2 have the ground-state spin value of S = 4, and the ground state of complex 1 has the much closer energy to low-lying spin states than that of complex 2. Magnetization measurements at 2.0–4.0 K and 10–70 kG confirm that the ground state is S = 4, with significant magnetoanisotropy as gauged by the D value of ?0.82 cm^?1 and ?1.18 cm^?1, for 1 and 2, respectively. The frequency dependence of the out-of-phase component in alternating current magnetic susceptibilities for both complexes 1 and 2 indicates the slow magnetic relaxation of superparamagnetic behaviour with a U_eff of 27.0(1) K and τ₀ = 3.8(2) × 10^?9 s for complex 1, and U_eff of 25.1(6) K and τ₀ = 4.6(1) × 10^?8 s for complex 2.
