Abstract

Copper(II), nickel(II), and zinc(II) complexes with tridentate imino nitroxyl diradicals, [CuCl(bisimpy)(MeOH)](PF6) (1), [NiCl(bisimpy)(H2O)2]Cl·2H2O (2), and [ZnCl2(bisimpy)] (3) (bisimpy = 2,6-bis(1′-oxyl-4′,4′,5′,5′-tetramethyl- 4′,5′-dihydro-1′H-imidazol-2′-yl)pyridine), were prepared and their magnetic properties studied. In 1-3 the diradicals are ferromagnetically coupled with the inter-radical coupling constant of J = + 6.5 cm-1. In 1 and 2 the ferromagnetic interactions between the paramagnetic metal ions and the coordinated imino nitroxides are operative with the J values of + 165 and + 120 cm-1 (H = -2JijΣSiSj), respectively. Magnetic properties of a Cu(II) complex with a mono radical ligand, [CuCl2(impy)] (4) (impy = 2-(1′-oxyl-4′,4′,5′,5′tetramethyl- 4′,5′-dihydro-1′H-imidazol-2′-yl)pyridine), were also studied; a ferromagnetic coupling constant of J = + 50(2) cm-1 was obtained.
