Reaction of K-3[Cr(CN)(6)] with a square-planar macrocyclic Ni(ii) complex
leads to a 2D honeycomb-like layered complex with novel hydrogen-bonding li
nkages in the honeycomb. Magnetic studies reveal that the complex displays
a long range antiferromagnetic ordering with T-N=12.6 K at low field, and m
etamagnetic behavior originating from intralayer ferromagnetic and interlay
er antiferromagnetic interactions.
