Interpenetrating Diruthenium Tetraformate Monocation, [RuII/III2(O2CH)4]+, Based 3-D Molecule-based Magnets
Synthesis of [Ru{sub 2}(O{sub 2}CH){sub 4}]{sub 3}[MIII(CN){sub 6}] (M = Co, Fe) possessing an interpenetrating body center cubic (bcc) lattices was investigated utilizing several synthetic methods. The targeted interpenetrating bcc [a = 12.6621(3) {angstrom}] structure was obtained for [Ru{sub 2}(O{sub 2}CH){sub 4}]{sub 3}[Co(CN){sub 6}], and it exhibits {chi}T(T) that is fit to a model which includes zero field splitting. Cyanide abstraction from [Cr(CN){sub 6}]{sup 3-} occurs thwarting the formation of [Ru{sub 2}(O{sub 2}CH){sub 4}]{sub 3}[M(CN){sub 6}]. [Ru{sub 2}(O{sub 2}CH){sub 4}]{sub 3}[Fe(CN){sub 6}] also exhibits the desired bcc structure [12.7071(3) {angstrom}], and its 13.4 K T{sub c} is a 6-fold enhancement with respect to that observed for [Ru{sub 2}(O{sub 2}CMe){sub 4}]{sub 3}[Fe(CN){sub 6}].
