The reaction of molten trimethylpyrazole (tmpzH) with copper metal shot in air yields a mixture of the trinuclear copper(I) complex [Cu(tmpz)]3, 1, and the trinuclear copper(I/II) complex [Cu(3-CO2dmpz)(tmpzH)]2Cu, 2 (where dmpz is dimethylpyrazolate). Crystals of 1 are monoclinic, a = 8.403(3), b = 22.453(2), c = 11.362(2) Å, (3 = 95.83(2)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c. Crystals of 2 are triclinic, a = 10.988(3), b = 11.009(2), c = 6.457(1) Å, α = 103.13(2)°, β = 103.02(2)°, γ = 108.70(2)°, Z = 1, space group [Formula: see text]. The reaction of molten 4-bromodimethylpyrazole (4-BrdmpzH) with copper metal shot in air gave the binuclear copper(II) complex [Cu(4-Br-3-CO)2mepz)(4-BrdmpzH)2]2, 3 (where mepz is methylpyrazolate). There are two crystalline forms of 3:3a, triclinic, a = 10.152(3), b = 13.068(3), c = 10.033(3) Å, a = 112.38(2)°, (3 = 116.46(2)°, γ = 70.29(2)°, Z = 1, space group [Formula: see text]; and 3b, monoclinic, a = 13.470(1), b = 16.005(2), c = 20.174(1) Å, β = 98.142(6)°, Z = 4, space group C2/c. Magnetic susceptibility studies on a bulk sample of 3 (2.0–300 K) revealed antiferromagnetic coupling between the double pyrazolate bridged copper centres and analysis of the data according to a Heisenberg model for coupled pairs of S = 1/2 metal ions gave −75.4 cm−1 for the value of the exchange coupling constant, J. The crystal structures of 1, 2, 3a, and 3b were solved by the Patterson method and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.036, 0.056, 0.042, and 0.042 for 2265, 1764, 2011, and 2575 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively.

[Ni3(C2H3O2)2(C3H8NO)2L2] [(L=N,N′-1,3-propyl-disalicylaldimine), (C2H3O2)=acetate, (C3H8NO)=hydroxymethyl-dimethylamine] has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined, [C44H54N6O10Ni3], triclinic, space group P1̄, a = 9.560(1), b = 10.681(1), c = 12.200(1) Å, α = 112.17(1), β = 101.25(1), γ = 90.32(1)°, V = 1127.3 Å, Z = 1.The molecule is linearly trinuclear with octahedral coordination of each nickel ion. The Ni-Ni distance is 3.048( 1) Å. Each nickel(II) atom is in an octahedral coordination. Magnetic susceptibility measurements in the range 4.2 < T < 280 K have revealed antiferromagnetic coupling between adjacent Ni atoms (J1 = -2.2 cm-1) and between the terminal Ni atoms (J2 = -1.7 cm-1).

AbstractTwo tetra-coordinate Co(II) complexes, [CoCl2(bzfupy)2] and [CoCl2(p-tol)2] with N-donor ligands, are apparently mononuclear systems. The magnetic susceptibility at low temperature attains a maximum which is a fingerprint of the exchange interaction. The exchange coupling constant fitted to a model of 1D-magnetic chain yields J/hc = −0.50 cm−1 and −0.57 cm−1, respectively. The magnetic interaction is mediated by the π-π stacking in the first complex, and the short Cl…Cl contacts in the second.

Direct reactions of nickelocene and manganocene with molten pyrazoles in an inert atmosphere or under vacuum have led to the isolation of the following metal pyrazolate compounds: [Ni(4-Xpz)2]x (where X = H, Cl and pz = pyrazolate); [M(4-Xdmpz)2]x (where X = H, CH3, Cl, Br and M = Ni, Mn anddmpz = 3,5-dimethylpyazolate); and [Mn(4-Xpz)2(4-XpzH)]x (where X = Cl, Br and pzH = pyrazole). On the basis of indirect evidence all compounds are considered to have extended chain structures with metal ions linked in chains by double bridging pyrazolates. The two [Ni(4-Xpz)2]x compounds are diamagnetic while all others are paramagnetic. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility studies on the paramagnetic compounds reveal antiferromagnetic coupling between neighbouring metal ions. Analysis of the magnetic data (Hamiltonian of the form H = -2J sum Si·Sj) yields values of the exchange coupling constant J of -14 to -17 cm -1for the [Ni(4-Xdmpz)2]x compounds, -1.2 to -2.1 cm-1 for the [Mn(4-Xdmpz)2]x compounds, and -0.41 cm-1 for the [Mn(4-Xpz)2(4-XpzH)]x compounds.Key words: nickel, manganese, manganocene, nickelocene, pyrazolates, antiferromagnetic exchange.

In the present work, we examine the magnetic properties of 8 "endto-end" thiocyanato, and 3 "end-to-end" cyanato double bridged Ni(II) binuclear complexes. Thiocyanato complexes are weakly ferromagnetic. Cyanato bridged complexes exhibit weak antiferromagnetic coupling. Therefore, it is a challenge for computational chemistry to calculate the exchange coupling constant in these systems accurately. 17 different Density Functional Approximations with different flavors are used to find the method of choice to study magnetic properties in binuclear Ni(II) complexes within the Broken-Symmetry approach. It is found that M06-2X and PWPB95 performed the best compared to experimental values for the entire set of examined complexes. Furthermore, the magneto-structural correlation rationalizes the results.

The reaction of molten 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrazole (F6dmpzH) with copper metal shot under an atmosphere of dioxygen yields the green trimetallic mixed valence [Cu(II)2Cu(1)(F6dmpz)5]. Crystals of [Cu(II)2Cu(I)(F6dmpz)5] are triclinic, a = 9.0557(2), b = 9.6164(2), c = 11.8874(3) Å, α= 105.406(1)°, β = 112.317(1)°, γ = 90.662(1)°, Z= 1, space group P͞1. The crystal structure was solved by direct methods and was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to a final R value of 0.0538 for 2591 reflections with I≥2σ(I). Magnetic susceptibility studies over the range 2–300 K reveal strong antiferromagnetic exchange coupling between the two copper(II) centers. Fits of the magnetic data to the Bleaney-Bowers equation for two interacting S= ½ centers gives the exchange coupling constant J = –235 cm–1. Key words: trimetallic, copper, 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrazolates, X-ray structure, antiferromagnetism.

The copper(I) complexes [Cu(4-Xdmpz)]3 (where X = H, Cl, Br, I and CH3; dmpz = 3,5-dimethylpyrazolate) and the copper(II) complexes [Cu(4-Xdmpz)2]x have been synthesized and characterized. Qualitative solubility, infrared spectroscopic, and differential scanning calorimetric studies are reported for all complexes. Mass spectra support trimeric formulations for the copper(I) complexes. Scanning electron micrographs and powder X-ray diffractograms have been recorded for the copper(II) compounds. Electronic and EPR spectroscopic studies as well as magnetic susceptibility studies from 2 to 300 K are also reported for the copper(II) compounds, which are proposed to have polymeric chain structures. The magnetic data reveal strong antiferromagnetic interactions in all four of the copper(II) compounds. The data have been analysed employing an isotropic Heisenberg model for antiferromagnetic coupling in extended chain polymers. Values of the exchange coupling constant, J, are determined as −58, −61, −66, and −66 cm−1 for the X = H, CH3, Cl, and Br complexes respectively. The X = Cl compound exhibits an abrupt decrease in magnetic susceptibility below 40 K and possible causes of this anomalous behaviour are discussed.

At room temperature bis [2-(1,5-dimethyltriazol-3-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline]iron(II) perchlorate has magnetic and Mossbauer spectral properties which indicate that it contains both singlet and quintet state iron(II) in a ratio of approximately 1:2. Two polymorphs were identified in a small batch of crystals grown from acetone/ethanol for crystal structure determination. In polymorph 1 the average iron-nitrogen distance (1.97 Ǻ) is close to the value usually obtained for purely singlet state iron(II) in an [FeN6]2+ system, whereas that for polymorph 2 (2.09 Ǻ) is consistent with the 1:2 ratio of singlet-to-quintet state species. The Mossbauer spectrum of the crystallographic sample is virtually identical to that of the bulk sample. There are small differences in the coordination sphere which could account for the different extent of stabilization of the singlet state in the two polymorphs. The crystal packing differs markedly for the two polymorphs but reveals no obvious rationalization for the spin-state differences. Bis [2-(1,5-dimethyltriazol-3-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline]iron(II) perchlorate , two-thirds water (polymorph 1): monoclinic, space group P 21/c, a 10.766(3), b 25.806(3), c 12.491(4) Ǻ, β 91.17(1)°, Z 4.

This work evaluates the quality of exchange coupling constant and spin crossover gap calculations using density functional theory corrected by the Approximate Projection model. Results show that improvements using the Approximate Projection model range from modest to significant. This study demonstrates that, at least for the class of systems examined here, spin-projection generally improves the quality of density functional theory calculations of J-coupling constants and spin crossover gaps. Furthermore, it is shown that spin-projection can be important for both geometry optimization and energy evaluations. The Approximate Project model provides an affordable and practical approach for effectively correcting spin-contamination errors in molecular exchange coupling constant and spin crossover gap calculations.

The molecular structures of exo-7-methylbicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-3-one, 3, and the endo-7-methyl isomer, 4, have been determined using X-ray-diffraction techniques. Compound 3 crystallizes in the space group [Formula: see text] with a = 15.115(1), c = 7.677(2) Å, and Z = 8 while 4 crystallizes in the space group P21 with a = 6.446(1), b = 7.831(1), c = 8.414(2) Å, β = 94.42(2)°, and Z = 2. The structures were solved by direct methods and refined to final agreement factors of R = 0.041 and R = 0.034 for 3 and 4 respectively. Compound 3 exists in a chair–chair conformation and there is no significant flattening of the chair rings. However, in 4, the non-ketone ring is forced into a boat conformation. These results are significant in interpreting what conformations may be present in the related sp2-hybridized carbocations.
