Synthesis and structure of heterospin compounds based on the [Mn-6(O)(2)Piv(10)]-cluster unit and nitroxide
Reaction of [Mn-6(O)(2)Piv(10)(Thf)(4)].Thf with 2,4,4,5,5-pentamethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazolyl-3-oxide-1-oxyl (NIT-Me) produces different heterospin compounds depending of the solvent used in the synthesis. Among the latter a new molecular magnet [Mn-6(O)(2)Piv(10)(Thf)(2)(NIT-Me)Mn-6(O)(2)PiV(10)(Thf)(CH2Cl2)(NIT-Me) ] with T-c = 3.5 K has been found.
