Heptacoordinated Nickel(II) as an Ising-Type Anisotropic Building Unit: Illustration with a Pentanuclear [(NiL)(3){W(CN)(8)}(2)] Complex
Heptacoordinated nickel(II) complexes characterized by substantial Ising-type single-ion anisotropy have been involved in the construction of two pentanuclear [Ni3W2] compounds by association with [W(CN)(8)](3-). For one of them, slow relaxation of magnetization was observed to occur concomitantly with antiferromagnetic ordering.
