Static and dynamic magnetic properties of the tetracoordinate CoII complex [Co(CH3-im)2Cl2], (1, CH3-im = N-methyl-imidazole), studied using thorough analyses of magnetometry, and High-Frequency and -Field EPR (HFEPR) measurements, are reported. The study was supported by ab initio complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) calculations. It has been revealed that 1 possesses a large magnetic anisotropy with a large rhombicity (magnetometry: D = -13.5 cm-1, E/D = 0.33; HFEPR: D = -14.5(1) cm-1, E/D = 0.16(1)). These experimental results agree well with the theoretical calculations (D = -11.2 cm-1, E/D = 0.18). Furthermore, it has been revealed that 1 behaves as a field-induced single-ion magnet with a relatively large spin-reversal barrier (Ueff = 33.5 K). The influence of the Cl-Co-Cl angle on magnetic anisotropy parameters was evaluated using the CASSCF calculations.
报道了通过对磁学测量以及高频和高场电子顺磁共振(HFEPR)测量进行全面分析,对四配位钴(II)配合物[Co(CH3-im)2Cl2](1,CH3-im = N-甲基咪唑)的静态和动态磁性进行的研究。该研究得到了从头算完全活性空间自洽场(CASSCF)计算的支持。结果表明,1具有较大的磁各向异性和较大的菱形度(磁学测量:D = -13.5 cm-1,E/D = 0.33;HFEPR:D = -14.5(1) cm-1,E/D = 0.16(1))。这些实验结果与理论计算结果(D = -11.2 cm-1,E/D = 0.18)吻合良好。此外,还发现1表现为具有相对较大自旋反转势垒(Ueff = 33.5 K)的场诱导单离子磁体。利用CASSCF计算评估了Cl-Co-Cl角对磁各向异性参数的影响。
