Cyano-bridged hexanuclear Fe4M2 (M = Ni, Co, Mn) clusters: Spin-canted antiferromagnetic ordering of Fe4Ni2 cluster
Heterobimetallic hexanuclear cyano-bridged complexes, [{Fe(Tp)(CN)(3)}(4){M(MeCN)(H2O)(2)}(2)](.)l0H(2)O(.)2MeCN [M = Ni (1), Co (2), Mn (3); Tp = hydrotris(l-pyrazolyl)borate], have been synthesized in H2O-MeCN solution. Complexes 1-3 are isostructural and hexanuclear with [{Fe(Tp)(CN)(3)}(4){M(MeCN)(H2O)(2)}(2)] units linked by hydrogen bonds to form a 2D-structure in the solid state. Complex 1 is a canted antiferromagnet that undergoes a field-induced spin-flop-like transition at similar to 1 T and 2 K. At 4.45 K 1 has a transition to paramagnetic state of noninteracting S = 4 magnetic clusters. However, 2 and 3 show antiferromagnetic intracluster coupling. Facile loss of solvent from 2 alters the local symmetry resulting in changing the intracluster interaction from antiferro- to ferromagnetic.
