Description
Summary:Using an asymmetric tetradentate ligand N -((6-(1 H -pyrazol-1-yl)pyridin-2-yl)methylene)benzohydrazide ( pypzbeyz ), two high-coordinate 3d transition metal compounds [Co II ( pypzbeyz )(NO 3 ) 2 ] ( 1 ) and [Fe II ( pypzbeyz ) 2 ](BF 4 ) 2 (CH 3 CN) ( 2 ) have been synthesized and characterized by structural and magnetic measurements. X-ray crystallographic analyses revealed that compound 1 is seven-coordinate with a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry (pseudo- D 5h ) and compound 2 is eight-coordinate with a triangular dodecahedral geometry (pseudo- D 2d ). Direct current (dc) magnetic susceptibilities revealed that compound 1 shows easy-plane magnetic anisotropy ( D = +29.9 cm −1 , E = 0.31 cm −1 ) and 2 shows easy-axis magnetic anisotropy ( D = −6.6 cm −1 , E = 0.02 cm −1 ). Alternating current (ac) magnetic measurements indicate that both compounds exhibit field-induced slow magnetic relaxation behavior. Furthermore, ab initio calculations also demonstrate that compound 1 presents a strong easy-plane magnetic anisotropy and 2 presents an easy-axis magnetic anisotropy, which are further identified by the calculated orientations of the local magnetic axes. These results demonstrate an effective way to achieve the targeted synthesis of high-coordinate 3d SIMs. A seven-coordinate Co II compound and an eight-coordinate Fe II compound based on an asymmetric tetradentate ligand have been reported, and both of them exhibited slow magnetic relaxation behaviour.
