H. Kumagai et al., Synthesis and magnetic properties of a new complex made up of Mn(hfac)(2) and a radical with a triplet ground state, NEW J CHEM, 24(7), 2000, pp. 537-539
A new metal-radical complex of Mn(II) made up of Mn(hfac)(2) and the radica
l 4-N-tert-butylaminoxyl-4'-(1-oxyl-3-oxide-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazolin-2
-yl) biphenyl (BIPNNNO) was synthesized. The X-ray single crystal structura
l analysis revealed that the complex consists of discrete molecules [Mn(hfa
c)(2)] (BIPNNNO)(2). The magnetic characteristics of this complex were stud
ied and the Mn-radical and intraradical exchange integrals were evaluated:
-135 +/- 10 and 72 +/- 5 K, respectively. These values are compared with th
ose of complexes of Mn(hfac)(2) with different aminoxyl polyradicals.
