N. Takamatsu et al., M+(crown ether) supramolecular cations (M+= K+, Rb+, NH4+) for controllingmagnetic properties of monovalent [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) salts, MOLEC CRYST, 343, 2000, pp. 481-486
Supramolecular cations (SC+) of K+, Rb+, or NH4+(crown ether) were incorpor
ated into the monovalent [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) salts. The K+ and Rb+(DA18-crown-
6) units had a planar disk-shaped SC+ structure, while the [NH4+(15-crown-5
)(2)](2) was the barrel type SC+ structure. The [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) arrangemen
t and magnetic properties of these salts depended on the coordination prope
rties in the cation structures.
