Abstract: | An unprecedented atom connectivity, MnIV(mu-O)MnIV(mu-O)2MnIV(mu-O)MnIV, is found in the complex [MnIV4O4(EtO-terpy)4(OH)2(OH2)2](ClO4)(6).8H2O (EtO-terpy=4'-ethoxyl-2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine), which has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, X-ray powder diffraction, EPR spectroscopy, and magnetic studies. This complex is the first example of a compound where a MnIV ion is coordinated by all three types of water-derived ligands: oxo, hydroxo, and aqua. Bond distances and angles for this complex are consistent with a MnIV4 oxidation state assignment. The di-mu-oxo- and mono-mu-oxo-bridged Mn-Mn distances are 2.80 and 3.51 A, respectively. The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility data for this complex, in the range of 10-300 K, are consistent with an S=0 ground state and were fit using the spin Hamiltonian HHDvV=-J1S2S1-J2S1S1A-J1S1AS2A (S1=S1A=S2=S2A=3/2) with J1=-432 cm-1 and J2=-164 cm-1 (where J1 and J2 are exchange constants through the mono-mu-oxo and the di-mu-oxo bridges, respectively). The first excited spin state of this tetramer is a spin triplet state at 279 cm-1 above the diamagnetic ground state. The next spin states are the S=1 and S=2 levels at about 700 and 820 cm-1 above the S=0 ground state, respectively. These large energy gaps are consistent with the absence of an EPR signal for this complex, even at high temperature. |
