Single-Molecule Magnets: Characterization of Complexes Exhibiting Out-of-Phase AC Susceptibility Signals
1997
Abstract The structures and characterization are described of complexes that exhibit an out-of-phase AC magnetic susceptibility x m” The dodecanuclear complexes [Mn12O12(O2CR)16(H2O)4]z contain 8MnIII, 4MnIV or MnII, 7MnIII, 4MnIV and possess ground state spins of S = 9 or 10 (z = 0) or S = 19/2 (z = −1). The distorted-cubane complexes [Mn4O3X(O2CR)3(dbm)3] contain 3MnIII, MnIV and have been prepared with a variety of X groups; in every case, the ground state is S = 9/2. The anion [Mn11O10X6(O2CPh)11(H2O)4]2− (9MnIII, 2MnIV; X = NCO−, N3 −) contains two [Mn4O3X] distorted-cubanes linked by a [Mn3O4]+ unit; the ground state is S = 5. The cation [V4O2(O2CEt)7(bpy)2]+ (4VIII) has a [V4O2]8+ butterfly core and a S = 3 ground state. All these complexes exhibit out-of-phase AC magnetic susceptibility signals at low temperatures (<8 K). These signals are indicative of slow relaxation of the magnetization, unable to keep in phase with the oscillating AC magnetic field, and are taken as evidence for single-molecul...
