Cyanidverbrückte Koordinationspolymere aus cis‐ oder trans‐[Ru(tBuNC)4(CN)2] und MnCl2: Zum Einfluß unterschiedlicher Topologien auf die magnetischen Eigenschaften von Materialien

Cyanide Bridged Coordination Polymers from cis‐ or trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] and MnCl₂: About the Influence of Different Topologies on the Magnetic Properties of Materials The reaction of cis‐ or trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] with MnCl₂ as an additional transition metal fragment yields the one dimensional coordination polymers {cis‐[Ru(CN)₂(^tBuNC)₄] MnCl₂}_n, ( 1 ), and {trans‐[Ru(CN)₂(^tBuNC)₄]MnCl₂}_n, ( 2 ), with a different arrangement of the metal centers caused by the different stereochemistry of the starting compounds. The variation of the Ru‐C‐N‐Mn geometry nevertheless leads to significant differences in the magnetic properties of 1 and 2 . The coordination polymer derived from trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] shows a more efficient antiferromagnetic intrachain interaction between the manganese centers compared to the cis‐derivative.     

One-dimensional α-MnO2: Trapping chemistry of tunnel structures, structural stability, and magnetic transitions

Highly crystalline one-dimensional (1D) α-MnO₂ nanostructures were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. All samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimeter, and infrared spectroscopy. During the formation reactions, the tunnel structure of 1D α-MnO₂ was simultaneously modified by NH₄⁺ species and water molecules. The amount of NH₄⁺ species that were trapped in the tunnels is almost independent on the reaction temperature, while the total water content increased with the reaction temperature. The average diameter of α-MnO₂ nanorods increased from 9.2 to 16.5 nm when the reaction temperature increased from 140 to 220 °C. 1D α-MnO₂ was destabilized by a subsequent high-temperature treatment in air, which is accompanied by a structural transformation to 1D Mn₂O₃ of a cubic structure. At low temperatures, all 1D α-MnO₂ nanorods showed two magnetic transitions that were characterized by a decreased Néel temperature with rod diameter reduction. According to the effective magnetic moments experimentally measured, Mn ions presented in the nanorods were determined to be in a mixed valency of high spin state Mn⁴⁺/Mn³⁺.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic property of a new nickel selenite chloride: Ni5(SeO3)4Cl2

The new nickel selenite chloride, Ni₅(SeO₃)₄Cl₂, was obtained by high-temperature solid state reaction of NiCl₂, Ni₂O₃ and SeO₂ in a 1:2:4 molar ratio at 700 °C in an evacuated quartz tube. Its structure was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Ni₅(SeO₃)₄Cl₂ crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P-1 (No. 2) with cell parameters of a=8.076(2), b=9.288(2), c=9.376(2) Å, α=101.97(3), β=105.60(3), γ=91.83(3)° and Z=2. All nickel(II) ions in Ni₅(SeO₃)₄Cl₂ are octahedrally coordinated by selenite oxygens or/and chloride anions (([Ni(1)O₅Cl], [Ni(2)O₄Cl₂], [Ni(3)O₅Cl], [Ni(4)O₆] and [Ni(5)O₄Cl]). The structure of the title compound features a condensed three-dimensional (3D) network built by Ni(II) ions interconnected by SeO₃²⁻ anions as well as Cl⁻ anions. Magnetic property measurements show strong antiferromagnetic interaction between nickel(II) ions.     

Characterization by X-ray diffraction, magnetic susceptibility and Mössbauer spectroscopy of a new alluaudite-like phosphate:: Na4CaFe4(PO4)6

A single crystal of a new sodium calcium iron (III) phosphate, Na₄CaFe₄(PO₄)₆, has been synthesized by a flux method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c(a=12.099(5) Å, b=12.480(5) Å, c=6.404(2) Å, β=113.77(3)°, Z=2, R₁=0.022, R_w2=0.066). The crystal structure belongs to the alluaudite type, characterized by the X(2)X(1)M(1)M(2)₂(PO₄)₃ general formula. The open framework results from Fe₂O₁₀ units of edge-sharing FeO₆ octahedra, which alternate with M(1)O₆ octahedra (M(1)=Na+Ca) that form infinite chains. These chains are linked together through the common corners of PO₄ tetrahedra yielding two distinct tunnels of sodium cation occupation. This compound is antiferromagnetic with a Néel temperature of 35 K. Mössbauer parameters are consistent with the structural results.

Structural characterization and physical properties of the system La1.33LixCrxTi2−xO6

New phases which arise from partial substitution of Ti⁴⁺ by Cr³⁺ and Li⁺ of the compound La_2/3TiO₃ have been obtained, giving rise to the series La_1.33Li_xCr_xTi_2−xO₆ (x=0.66, 0.55 and 0.44). These phases adopt a perovskite-type structure as deduced from their structural characterization. Rietveld's analyses of neutron diffraction data show that it is orthorhombic (S.G. Pbnm) with ordered domains. Conductivity has been examined by complex impedance spectroscopy and it increases with increasing lithium and chromium content. These materials behave as mixed conductors with low activation energies. Magnetic susceptibility variation with temperature shows antiferromagnetic interactions at the lowest temperatures.     

Magnetic field effects on the crystal orientation and surface morphology of electrodeposited iron films

The effects of a magnetic field (5 T) on crystal orientation and surface morphology were investigated for iron films electrodeposited in ferrous aqueous solution. XRD measurements for the iron films showed that the preferred orientation parallel to the substrate was determined by the current density and not influenced by the magnetic field. By X-ray pole figure measurements, however, the crystal texture of the iron films electrodeposited at 10 mA cm^–2 and 30 mA cm^–2 was found to be controlled by the magnetic field. That is, the (110) planes were orientated in same direction of the magnetic field vector at angles of 30° and 35° to the direction normal to the substrate plane at 10 mA cm^–2 and 30 mA cm^–2, respectively. When the morphology was observed by SEM, iron grains at 30 mA cm^–2 changed from a triangular pyramid shape at 0 T to a complex star-like shape at 5 T.Presented at the 3rd International Symposium on Electrochemical Processing of Tailored Materials held at the 53rd Annual Meeting of the International Society of Electrochemistry, 15–20 September 2002, Düsseldorf, Germany     

Synthesis, crystal structure, and magnetic properties of the manganate La2Ca2MnO6(O2) related to the hexagonal perovskite-type structure

The compound La₂Ca₂MnO₆(O₂) has been synthesized from La₂Ca₂MnO₇ heated at 1123 K under high pressure (4 GPa) with KClO₃ as oxygen source. The crystal structure has been refined from X-ray powder data in the space group. The unit-cell parameters are a=5.6335(2) Å and c=17.4879(8) Å. Perpendicular to the c-axis, the structure is built up by the periodic stacking of two close packed [LaO₃] layers separated by a layer of composition [Ca₂O₂] containing (O₂)²⁻ peroxide ions. This oxide belongs to the family of compounds formulated as [A′₂O_2−δ][A_nB_n−1O_3n] for n=2 and δ=0. It is the first member of the series where the thickness of the perovskite slab corresponds to one [BO₆] (B=Mn) octahedron. The structural relationships with La₂Ca₂MnO₇ are discussed and the magnetic properties show that in both phases manganese is tetravalent.     

A theoretical analysis of the explanation of the significant differences in antiferromagnetic interactions between homologous μ-alkoxo and acetate bridged dicopper(II) complexes: ab initio and semi-empirical calculations

A magnetostructural classification of dimmers, containing the Cu (μ-alkoxo) Cu core, based on data obtained from X-ray diffraction analysis reported in the literature has been performed. In these complexes, the local geometry around the copper ions is generally a square planar and each copper ion is surrounded by one N atom and three O atoms. The influence of the overlap interactions between the bridging ligands and the metal (Cu) d orbitals on the super-exchange coupling constant has been studied by means of ab initio Restricted Hatree–Fock molecular orbital calculations. The interaction between the magnetic d orbitals and highest occupied molecular orbitals of the acetate oxygens has been investigated in homologous μ-acetato-bridged dicopper(II) complexes which have significantly different −2J values (the energy separation between the spin-triplet and spin-singlet states). In order to determine the nature of the fronter orbitals, Extended Hückel molecular Orbital calculations are also reported. Ab initio restricted Hartree–Fock calculations have shown that the acetato bridge and the alkoxide bridge contribute to the magnetic interaction countercomplementarily to reduce antiferromagnetic interaction.
