Abstract: | Two types of manganese complexes with [Mn4] cores featuring the unusual distorted cube topology are presented, the first of which comprises new modifications of the reported complex [MnIII4(sao)4(saoH)4]·3CHCl3: [Mn4(sao)4(saoH)4]·1.32(C4H10O)·0.43(CH4O) ( 1a ) and [Mn(sao)4(saoH)4]·0.5(CH4O)·0.5(C2H3N) ( 1b ) sao = salicylaldoxime. The second, 0.55[Mn4Cl4(C12H9N2O)4(CH3OH)2(H2O)2]·0.45[Mn4Cl4(C12H9N2O)4(CH3OH)4] ( 2 ), is the first reported case of a {MnII4} core of this topology besides known {MnIII4} compounds. Differences between the {MnII4} and {MnIII4} situation are discussed, and so far overlooked differences in magnetic properties between different {MnIII4} compounds are pointed out. |
