A method of increasing the axial zero-field splitting parameter for transition metal complexes of utility in the assembly of magnetic clusters is demonstrated through the use of heavy atoms as auxiliary ligands. The octahedral complexes Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)X (dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane, X = Cl, Br, I) and Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)X (X = Cl, I) are synthesized and structurally characterized. Variable-field magnetization measurements show the magnitude of D for these complexes to increase significantly as the halide ligand varies from chloride to iodide, ranging from 0.11 cm(-1) for Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)Cl to 6.26 cm(-1) for Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)I.
通过使用重原子作为辅助配体,展示了一种提高过渡金属配合物在组装磁团簇中轴向零场分裂参数的方法。合成并结构表征了八面体配合物Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)X(dmpe=1,2-双(二甲基膦基)乙烷,X=Cl、Br、I)和 Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)X(X=Cl、I)。变场磁化率测量表明,这些配合物的 D 值随着卤化物配体从氯到碘的变化而显著增加,范围从Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)Cl的 0.11 cm(-1)到 Cr(dmpe)(2)(CN)I 的 6.26 cm(-1)。
