Preparation and magnetic properties of Mn(hfac)(2)-complexes of 2-(5-pyrimidinyl)- and 2-(3-pyridyl)-substituted nitronyl nitroxides

Mn(hfac)(2) complexes of [2-(5-pyrimidinyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H- imidazoline-1-oxyl 3-oxide] (1) and its 2-(3-pyridyl) analogue (2) were prepared. Both complexes formed similar dimer structures. However, their packing patterns were considerably different. The pyrimidine dimers were aligned to form a linear chain structure, and each dimer was weakly bound by two sets of O6-C2 short contacts. In the pyridine dimer complex, two structurally similar but independent dimers were alternatively arranged, and two dimer-dimer contacts, O6-C2 (3.13 A) and O6-C3 (3.30 A), were observed. The pyrimidine complex showed strong antiferromagnetic behavior in the high temperature region (150-300 K) and weak ferromagnetic behavior below 100 K. Two models were used to analyze these magnetic properties. One is a quintet-septet thermal equilibrium model with mean-field approximation, which can reproduce the round minimum observed at about 150 K in chi(p)T plots (J(1)/k(B) = -148 +/- 2 K with theta = +2.5 +/- 0.1 K). The other is a ferromagnetic S = 2 chain model to fit the chi(p)T values in the lower temperature region (J(S=2)/k(B) = +0.31 +/- 0.01 K). The pyridine complex showed antiferromagnetic interactions both in the high and low temperature regions. The magnetic behavior was similarly analyzed with the following parameters: J(1)/k(B) = -140 +/- 2 K with theta = -0.55 +/- 0.05 K, and J(S=2)/k(B) = -0.075 +/- 0.003 K. The ligand-ligand interactions for both of the complexes were theoretically analyzed. The calculated results agreed well with the experiments. The stronger antiferromagnetic behavior observed in both the complexes at high temperatures was attributed to the magnetic interaction between the Mn(II) and the coordinating nitroxide oxygen atom. The weaker ferromagnetic interaction, J(S=2)/k(B) = +0.31 +/- 0.01 K, in the pyrimidine complex was attributed to the coulombic O6-C2 contact. Antiferromagnetic interaction J(S=2)/k(B) = -0.075 +/- 0.003 K in the pyridine complex was attributed to the O6-C3 contact.     

Equilibrium studies on complexation in water and solvent extraction of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) with benzo-18-crown-6

The formation constants (K(ML)) in water of 1:1 complexes of benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) and 18-crown-6 (18C6) with Zn(2+) and Cd(2+), the sizes of which are much smaller than the ligand cavities, were determined at 25 degrees C by conductometry. Compared with Cd(2+), the crown ethers form more stable complexes with Zn(2+) although the size of Zn(2+) is less suited for the cavities. B18C6 forms a more stable complex with each metal ion than 18C6. Moreover, the extraction equilibria of these metal ions (M(2+)) with B18C6 (L) for the benzene/water system in the presence of picric acid (HA) were investigated at 25 degrees C. The association between L and HA in benzene was examined for evaluating the intrinsic extraction equilibria of M(2+) with B18C6. The extracted species were found to be MLA(2) and ML(2)A(2), and the overall extraction constants (K(ex,1) and K(ex,2), respectively) were obtained. The values of K(ex,1) for these metal ions are almost the same, but the K(ex,2) is larger for Zn(2+) than for Cd(2+). The extraction selectivity was interpreted quantitatively by the constituent equilibrium constants, i.e. K(ML), the ion-pair extraction constant of ML(2+) with A(-), and the adduct formation constant of MLA(2) with L in benzene.     

Sub-Doppler rotationally resolved spectroscopy of lower vibronic bands of benzene with Zeeman effects

Sub-Doppler high-resolution excitation spectra and the Zeeman effects of the 6(0)(1), 1(0)(1)6(0)(1), and 1(0)(2)6(0)(1) bands of the S1(1)B2u<--S(0)(1)A1g transition of benzene were measured by crossing laser beam perpendicular to a collimated molecular beam. 1593 rotational lines of the 1(0) (1)6(0) (1) band and 928 lines of the 1(0)(2)6(0)(1) band were assigned, and the molecular constants of the excited states were determined. Energy shifts were observed for the S1(1)B2u(v1=1,v6=1,J,Kl=-11) levels, and those were identified as originating from a perpendicular Coriolis interaction. Many energy shifts were observed for the S1(1)B2u(v1=2,v6=1,J,Kl) levels. The Zeeman splitting of a given J level was observed to increase with K and reach the maximum at K=J, which demonstrates that the magnetic moment lies perpendicular to the molecular plane. The Zeeman splittings of the K=J levels were observed to increase linearly with J. From the analysis, the magnetic moment is shown to be originating mostly from mixing of the S1(1)B2u and S2(1)B1u states by the J-L coupling (electronic Coriolis interaction). The number of perturbations was observed to increase as the excess energy increases, and all the perturbing levels were found to be a singlet state from the Zeeman spectra.     

The interplay of iron(II) spin transition and polymorphism

The mononuclear compound (1) [Fe(II)(L)(2)](BF(4))(2) (L = 4-ethynyl-2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine) was prepared and structurally as well as magnetically characterised. The crystallisation revealed the formation of two polymorphs--the orthorhombic 1A and the tetragonal form 1B. A third, intermediate phase 1C was found exhibiting a different orthorhombic space group. Reversibility of the phase transition between 1A and 1C was studied by variable-temperature single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction studies, while an irreversible phase transition was observed for the transition of 1B→1C. The magnetic studies show that the 1A?1C transition is accompanied by a very abrupt spin transition (ST) with 8 K hysteresis width (T(1/2)(↓) = 337 K, T(1/2)(↑) = 345 K). The ST was confirmed by M?ssbauer spectroscopy as well as by DSC studies. In contrast, the 1B polymorph remained low-spin up to 420 K. In conclusion, a full cycle of intertwined phase- and spin-conversions of three polymorphs could be proven following the general scheme 1B→1C?1A.     

Extraction of sodium and potassium perchlorates with benzo-18-crown-6 into various organic solvents. Quantitative elucidation of anion effects on the extraction-ability and -selectivity for Na(+) and K(+)

To investigate quantitatively the anion effect on the extraction-ability and -selectivity of benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6) for alkali metal ions, the constants for overall extraction into various diluents having low dielectric constants (K(ex)) and aqueous ion-pair formation (K(MLA)) of B18C6-sodium and potassium perchlorate 1:1:1 complexes (MLA) were determined at 25 degrees C. The K(ex) value was analyzed by the four fundamental equilibrium constants. The K(MLA) values were determined by applying our established method to this perchlorate extraction system. The K(M(B18C6)A) value of the perchlorate is much larger for K(+) than for Na(+), and is much smaller than that of the picrate. The K(M(B18C6)A) value makes a minor contribution to the magnitude of K(ex) for the perchlorate system, but a major contribution to that for the picrate one. The distribution behavior of the B18C6 1:1:1 complexes with the alkali metal perchlorates follows the regular solution theory. For the diluent with a high dipole moment, however, the 1:1:1 complexes somewhat undergo the dipole-dipole interaction. B18C6 always shows very high extraction selectivity for KClO(4) over NaClO(4), which is determined mostly by the much greater log/(log K(MLA)) value for K(+) than for Na(+). The extraction-ability and -selectivity of B18C6 for Na(+) and K(+) ions with a perchlorate ion were compared with those with a picrate ion in terms of the fundamental equilibrium constants. The K(+) extraction-selectivity of B18C6 over Na(+) for the perchlorate system is superior to that for the picrate one, which is caused largely by the greater log/(log K(K(B18C6)A))-log/(log K(Na(B18C6)A)) value for the perchlorate than for the picrate. The perchlorate system is recommended for extraction separation of K(+) from Na(+).     

Lattice-solvent controlled spin transitions in iron(II) complexes

A series of spin transition (ST) iron(II) compounds of the type [FeII2](X)2.{S}2 (where is 4'-(4'-cyanophenyl)-1,2':6'1'-bispyrazolylpyridine, X=ClO4- or BF4-, and S is acetonitrile) was synthesized and magnetically investigated. The effects of the removal of the lattice-solvent molecules and of their different positions relative to the iron(II) cations on the ST process were investigated. Crystallization yields orange block (A.{S}2) crystals of the composition [FeII()2](ClO4)2.{S}2, and two polymorphic compounds of the stoichiometry [FeII()2](BF4)2.{S}2 as red coffin (B.{S}2) and orange block (C.{S}2) crystals. The Fe-N bond distances of A.{S}2 (from 1.921(9) to 1.992(3) A; at 150 K), B.{S}2 (from 1.943(2) to 2.017(2) A; at 180 K) and C.{S}2 (from 1.883(3) to 1.962(3) A; at 180 K) indicate low spin (LS) states of the respective iron(II) ions. Notably, the observed small difference in the Fe-N distances at 180 K for the two polymorphs B.{S}2and C.{S}2 are due to different positions of the acetonitrile molecules in the crystal lattices and illustrate the sensitivity of the spin transition properties on lattice-solvent effects. Variable-temperature single crystal X-ray studies display single-crystal thermochroism (red (LS)<-->orange (HS)) for A.{S}2 and B.{S}2 and ca. 3.6% decrease in the unit cell volume of A.{S}2 from 4403 A3 at 300 K to 4278 A3 at 150 K. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibilities of A.{S}2 and B.{S}2 demonstrate systematic increase of the spin transition temperatures (T1/2) and continuous decreases of the hysteresis loop width (DeltaT1/2) upon slow lattice-solvent exclusion.     

Exchange interaction of 5,5'-(m- and p-phenylene)bis(10-phenyl-5,10-dihydrophenazine) dications and related analogues

[structures: see text] 5,5'-(m-Phenylene)bis[(10-aryl-5,10-dihydrophenazine) dications, 3a2+ and 3b2+, and their p-analogues 4a2+ and 4b2+, were prepared, and their exchange interaction was investigated. The EPR spectra of these dications at 123 K in a butyronitrile matrix showed the population of a triplet state. The temperature dependence of the EPR signal intensity (absolute value(delta m(s)) = 2) showed that these dications had singlet ground states with deltaE(ST)/k(B) = -27 to -21 K for the m-isomer 3(2+) and with deltaE(ST)/k(B) = -10 to -8 K for the p-isomer 4(2+). Theoretical calculation of the exchange interaction J for these dications at the orthogonal torsion angle geometries was carried out for 3a2+ and 4a2+ and for (m- and p-phenylene)bisphenothiazine dications 1(2+) and 2(2+) using the broken-symmetry approach for the singlet states. A good correlation was observed between the calculated J and a MO-energy term in the triplet state, deltaE(TMO) = absolute value(HOMO(alpha) - (HOMO - 1)(alpha)). The calculated J values were negative in the order of 10 K for the m-dications (J/k(B) = -14.7 K for 1(2+), -11.5 K for 3a(2+)), but much smaller negative values were found for the p-isomers (J/k(B) = -0.9 K for 2(2+), -0.8 K for 4a2+). The smaller absolute value(J) values for the p-dications are qualitatively consistent with the experimental deltaE(ST) (2J) values.     

Study of heterogeneous equilibria in saturated solutions of some sparingly soluble 8-hydroxyquinolines

Heterogeneous equilibria in saturated aqueous solutions of 8-hydroxyquinoline (A), 2-methyl-8-hydroxyquinoline (B) and 5-chloro-8-hydroxyquinoline (C) were investigated at constant ionic strength (1M sodium chloride), at 25.0 +/- 0.1 degrees , by the application of the following methods: the formation function method, the method of bound protons, the method of free proton sites and the solubility method. The following equilibrium constants were determined: K(s1)=[H(2)A(+)]/[H(3)O(+)], K(s2)=[HA] and K(s3)=[H(3)O(+)] [A(-)]. Their mean pK values are: -2.88, 2.42 and 12.09 for A, -3.27, 2.71 and 12.73 for B, and -0.34, 3.88 and 12.75 for C. In addition, the acidity constants of investigated 8-hydroxyquinolines were determined by pH-metric titrations. The values obtained for these constants were consistent with those calculated on the basis of corresponding equilibrium constants determined in heterogeneous systems.     

CH2 b̃1B1-ã1A1 band origin at 1.20 μm

The origin band in the b?(1)B(1)-a?(1)A(1) transition of CH(2) near 1.2 μm has been recorded at Doppler-limited resolution using diode laser transient absorption spectroscopy. The assignments of rotational transitions terminating in upper state levels with K(a) = 0 and 1, were confirmed by ground state combination differences and extensive optical-optical double resonance experiments. The assigned lines are embedded in a surprisingly dense spectral region, which includes a strong hot band, b?(0,1,0) K(a) = 0 - a?(0,1,0) K(a) = 1 sub-band lines, with combination or overtone transitions in the a?(1)A(1) state likely responsible for the majority of unassigned transitions in this region. From measured line intensities and an estimate of the concentration of CH(2) in the sample, we find the transition moment square for the 0(00) ← 1(10) transition in the b?(1)B(1)(0,0,0)(0)-a?(1)A(1)(0,0,0)(1) sub-band is 0.005(1) D(2). Prominent b?(1)B(1)(0,1,0)(0)-a?(1)A(1)(0,1,0)(1) hot band lines were observed in the same spectral region. Comparison of the intensities of corresponding rotational transitions in the two bands suggests the hot band has an intrinsic strength approximately 28 times larger than the origin band. Perturbations of the excited state K(a) = 0 and 1 levels are observed and discussed. The new measurements will lead to improved future theoretical modeling and calculations of the Renner-Teller effect between the a? and b? states in CH(2).     

Chlorahololides A and B, two potent and selective blockers of the potassium channel isolated from Chloranthus holostegius

[structure: see text] Chlorahololides A(1) and B(2), two highly complex sesquiterpenoid dimers, were isolated from Chloranthus holostegius. Their structures and absolute configurations were established by NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and CD. Chlorahololides A (1) and B (2) exhibited potent and selective inhibition on the delayed rectifier (IK) K+ current, with an IC50 of 10.9 and 18.6 microM, respectively.     

Thermodynamic relationship between structural isomers of the thermochromic compound bis(N-Isopropyl-5,6-benzosalicylideneiminato)nickel(II)

A pair of structural isomers was isolated at room temperature for the thermochromic nickel complex bis( N-isopropyl-5,6-benzosalicylideneiminato)nickel(II); one is a diamagnetic green form with square-planar coordination geometry (G phase), and the other is a paramagnetic brown form with a tetrahedral geometry (B phase). However, a question as to which form is thermodynamically stable was left open. To solve this problem, thermal and magnetic properties of this complex were investigated by adiabatic heat capacity calorimetry in the 6-508 K temperature range and magnetic measurements in the 2-400 K region. In addition to the two forms previously reported, two metastable crystal forms (G' and B' phases) were found. The stable phase sequence was G phase, B phase, and then liquid upon heating. The supercooled B phase gave rise to a small phase transition with nonmagnetic origin at around 50 K. By rapidly cooling the liquid, a glassy liquid state was realized below approximately 290 K. The order of thermodynamic stability at 298.15 K was revealed to be the G, B, G', and then the B' phase. The entropy, enthalpy, and Gibbs energy differences between the B and the G phases at 298.15 K were S degrees (B) - S degrees (G) = 32.8 J K (-1) mol (-1), H degrees (B) - H degrees (G) = 16.0 kJ mol (-1), and G degrees (B) - G degrees (G) = 6.25 kJ mol (-1), respectively.     

Dynamics of benzene guest inside a self-assembled cylindrical capsule: a combined solid-state 2H NMR and molecular dynamics simulation study

The reorientational dynamics of benzene-d(6) molecules hosted into the cavity of a cavitand-based, self-assembled capsule was investigated by Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and temperature-dependent solid-state (2)H NMR spectroscopy. MD simulations were preliminarily performed to assess the motional models of the guest molecules inside the capsules. An in-plane fast reorientation of the benzene guest around the C(6) symmetry axis (B1 motion), characterized by correlation times of the order of picoseconds, was predicted with an activation barrier ( approximately 8 kJ/mol) very similar to that found for neat benzene in the liquid state. An out-of-plane reorientation corresponding to a nutation of the C(6) symmetry axis in a cone angle of 39 degrees (B2 motion, 373 K) with an activation barrier ( approximately 39 kJ/mol) definitely larger than that of liquid benzene was also anticipated. In the temperature range 293-373 K correlation times of the order of a nanosecond have been calculated and a transition from fast to slow regime in the (2)H NMR scale has been predicted between 293 and 173 K. (2)H NMR spectroscopic analysis, carried out in the temperature range 173-373 K on the solid capsules containing the perdeuterated guest (two benzene molecules/capsule), confirmed the occurrence of the B1 and B2 motions found in slow exchange in the (2)H NMR time scale. Line shape simulation of the (2)H NMR spectral lines permitted defining a cone angle value of 39 degrees at 373 K and 35 degrees at 173 K for the nutation axis. The T(1) values measured for the (2)H nuclei of the encapsulated aromatic guest gave correlation times and energetic barrier for the in-plane motion B1 in fine agreement with theoretical calculation. The experimental correlation time for B2 as well as the corresponding energetic barrier are in the same range found for B1. A molecular mechanism for the encapsulated guest accounting for the B1 and B2 motions was also provided.     

Electrochemical preparation of the bis(ruthenocenium) dication

The electrochemical oxidation of ruthenocene (1) in CH(2)Cl(2)/[NBu(4)]A, where A = [B(C(6)F(5))(4)](-) or [B(C(6)H(3)(CF(3))(2))(4)](-), gives the dimeric dication [(RuCp(2))(2)](2+), 2(2+), in equilibrium with the 17-electron ruthenocenium ion 1(+). At room temperature the rapid equilibrium accounts for the quasi-Nernstian cyclic voltammetry (CV) behavior (E(1/2) = 0.41 V vs FeCp(2), A = [B(C(6)F(5))(4)](-)). Direct electrochemical evidence for 2(2+) is seen by CV and by bulk electrolysis at 243 K. The bis(ruthenocenium) dication undergoes a highly irreversible two-electron cathodic reaction at E(pc) ca. 0 V. Anodic electrolysis of 1 at 243 K using [B(C(6)H(3)(CF(3))(2))(4)](-) as the supporting electrolyte, followed by cathodic electrolysis of 2(2+), regenerates half of the original 1. Precipitation of 2(2+) occurs when the supporting electrolyte is [B(C(6)F(5))(4)](-), allowing facile isolation of [(RuCp(2))(2)][B(C(6)F(5))(4)](2). A second, unidentified, anodic product also reduces to give back ruthenocene. Digital simulations of the CV curves of 1 at 243 K give a dimerization equilibrium constant of 9 x 10(4) M(-1) for K(eq) = [(RuCp(2))(2)(2+)]/2 [RuCp(2)](+) in CH(2)Cl(2)/0.1 M [NBu(4)][B(C(6)F(5))(4)].     

Electronic transitions of protonated benzene and fulvene, and of C6H7 isomers in neon matrices

Electronic transitions of protonated benzene (A??(1)B(2)←X??(1)A(1), origin at 325 nm) and α-protonated fulvene (A??(1)A'←X??(1)A', at 335 nm) trapped in 6 K neon matrices have been detected. The cations were produced from several different precursors, mass-selected, and co-deposited with neon. After neutralization of the cations, the electronic transitions of cyclohexadienyl (onsets at 549 and 310 nm) and α-hydrogenated fulvene (532 and 326 nm) radicals were identified. Upon excitation of cyclohexadienyl to the B??(2)B(1) state, photoisomerization to an open-chain structure and α-hydrogenated fulvene was observed.     

Metal-dependent ferro- versus antiferromagnetic interactions in molecular crystals of square Planar (M(II) imino-nitroxide radical) complexes (M = Pt,Pd)

The synthesis and structural, spectral, and magnetic characterizations of two new complexes of formula [Pt(IM(2)Py)Cl(2)] (A) and [Pd(IM(2)Py)Cl(2)] (B) are reported. IM(2)Py stands for the imino-nitroxide radical ligand 2-(ortho-pyridyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl. Their crystal structures were solved at room temperature and at 120 K revealing structural phase transitions from pseudo-orthorhombic to monoclinic systems for the two compounds which remain isostructural in the whole temperature range explored. Structural parameters for A: T = 293 K [120 K], monoclinic (P2(1)/n) [P2(1)/c], a = 7.906(2) [7.989(3)] A, b = 17.872(9) [10.168(4)] A, c = 10.357(3) [17.623(6)] A, beta = 90.732(13) degrees [95.940(2)] degrees, Z = 4 [4]. Structural parameters for B: T = 293 K [120 K], monoclinic (P2(1)/n) [P2(1)/c], a = 7.900(3) [7.9730(2)] A, b = 17.907(9) [10.1806(3)] A, c = 10.299(3) [17.7171(4)] A, beta = 90.524(14) degrees [95.747(2)] degrees, Z = 4 [4]. In both complexes, the metal coordination is essentially planar. The average Pt-N, Pt-Cl and Pd-N, Pd-Cl bond lengths are 1.996(6) [1.88], 2.295(2) [2.248(8)] A and 2.015(7) [2.029(8)], 2.287(3) [2.294(3)] A, respectively. The solid state structure is characterized by a pairlike molecular packing stacked in columns parallel to the a axis; this dimer character is reinforced at low temperature. Despite their structural similarity, the investigation of the magnetic properties revealed that dominant ferromagnetic interactions govern the behavior of the Pt derivative A, whereas antiferromagnetic interactions take place for the Pd compound B. A rationalization for this rather intriguing difference is proposed in light of the spin population deduced from density functional theory calculations. The electronic absorption spectra of A and B present structured absorption bands in the visible which are attributed to MLCT transitions. Both compounds are nonluminescent at room temperature. However, a weak emission is detected for A in butyronitrile glasses at 77 K, indicating that the MLCT excited state is strongly quenched at low temperature.     

Determination of borate ion-pair stability constants by potentiometry and non-approximative linearization of titration data

Borate anions, B(OH)(-)(4), are known to associate with alkali and alkaline-earth metal cations in sea-water. The borate cation ion-pairs are of the general form MB(OH)((n-1)+)(4), where M(n+) is the cation. In this work, the cation borate stability constants (K*(MB)) have been evaluated for Na(+), Li(+), Mg(2+), Ca(2+) and Sr(2+) where K*(MB) = [MB(OH(4))((n-1)+)]/[M(n+)][B(OH)(-)(4)]. The K*(MB) values were obtained from values found for the stability constant of boric acid (K*(B)) in various electrolyte media at 25 degrees and an ionic strength of 0.7. Acid-base potentiometric titrations were performed in the electrolyte media with a standard Pt/H(2) electrode and a junctionless Ag/AgCl reference electrode to monitor the emf. A non-approximative equation was used to linearize the titration data. The values obtained were: K*(Lib) = 0.89 +/- 0.02, K*(NaB) = 0.44 +/- 0.01, K*(MgB) = 13.6 +/- 0.7, K*(CaB) = 11.4 +/- 0.15, K*(SrB) = 3.47 +/- 0.06. The values for K*(MB) correlate with the charge-density parameter z(2)/(r + 0.85), where r is the radius of the cation. The speciation of boron in sea-water was predicted from the K*(MB), data for the major cations present.     

Two mixed-valence vanadium(III,IV) phosphonoacetates with 16-ring channels: H2(DABCO)[V(IV)O(H2O)V(III)(OH)(O3PCH2CO2)2].2.5H2O and H2(PIP)[V(IVO)(H2O)V(III)(OH)(O3PCH2CO2)2].2.5H2O

Two isostructural mixed-valence vanadium phosphonoacetates H2(DABCO)[V(IV)O(H2O)V(III)(OH)(O3PCH2CO2)2].2.5H2O (1) and H2(PIP)[V(IV)O(H2O)V(III)(OH)(O3PCH2CO2)2].2.5H2O (2) have been synthesized. They crystallize in the orthorhombic space group Pnna with a = 7.0479(10) A, b = 15.307(2) A, and c = 17.537(3) A for 1 and a = 7.0465(9) A, b = 15.646(2) A, and c = 17.396(2) A for 2. X-ray single-crystal diffraction reveals that 1 and 2 have a three-dimensional open framework featuring 16-ring ellipsoid channels that are filled with doubly protonated 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octanium/piperazinium cations and water molecules. According to the classification in metal-organic frameworks, 1 and 2 contain infinite (-O-V-)(infinity) chains that are cross-linked by "metalloligand" [VO(H2O)(O3PCH2CO2)2](4-) into a 3-D net of the sra topology. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of 1 shows that the chi(m)T value in the range of 60-320 K is constant of 1.105 cm3 K mol(-1)/V2 unit, and upon further cooling, the chi(m)T value rapidly increases to 1.81 cm3 K mol(-1) at 2 K. The corresponding effective magnetic moment (mu(eff))/V2 unit varies from 2.97 mu(B) at 320 K to 3.80 mu(B) at 2 K. The magnetic data in the range of 2-320 K follow the Curie-Weiss law with C = 1.074 cm3 K mol(-1) and Theta= -1.34 K.
