Title: Solvent-free mechanochemical synthesis and magnetic properties of rare-earth based metal-organic frameworks

Abstract

Mechanical milling of benzene 1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid [C₆H₃(COOH)₃], both with the single and mixed rare earth carbonates [R₂(CO₃)₃·xH₂O; R = Gd, Tb and Dy], leads to the formation of metal-organic frameworks [R{C₆H₃(COO)₃}] that adopt MIL-78 type structure. M(T) data of the investigated MOFs do not show any apparent onset of long range magnetic ordering down to 2 K. The M(H) data for Gd{C₆H₃(COO)₃}collected at 2 K show deviations from the magnetization behavior expected for non-interacting Gd³⁺ ions. For the Gd based MOF the temperature dependence of the isothermal magnetic entropy change (i.e. magnetocaloric effect, ΔS_M) exhibits a monotonous increase with decreasing temperature and at T = 3.5 K it reaches 34.1 J kg^$$-$$1K^$$-$$1 for a field change (ΔH) of 50 kOe. Finally, for the same ΔH the maximum values of ΔS_M for R = Tb and Dy are 5.5 J kg^$$-$$1K^$$-$$1 and 8.5 J kg^$$-$$1K^$$-$$1 at 9.5 K and 4.5 K, respectively.

A novel cryogenic magnetic refrigerant metal-organic framework based on 1D gadolinium(III) chain

Journal Article Tang, Qun ; Li, Peng-Fei ; Zou, Zhi-Ming ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

A metal-organic framework (MOF) based on gadolinium ion (Gd{sup 3+}) and tricarboxylate ligand, [Gd(BTPCA)(H{sub 2}O)]·2DMF·3H{sub 2}O (Gd-BTPCA) (H{sub 3}BTPCA =1,1′,1′-(benzene-1,3,5-triyl)tripiperidine-4-carboxylic acid; DMF=dimethylformamide), was synthesized and structurally characterized. The adjacent Gd{sup 3+} ions are intraconnected by the carboxylate groups of the BTPCA{sup 3-} ligands to form a 1D Gd{sup 3+} ion chain. The 1D Gd{sup 3+} ion chains are interconnected by the BTPCA{sup 3-} ligands, giving rise to a 3D framework with 1D open channel. The magnetic studies indicate that Gd-BTPCA exhibits weak ferromagnetic interactions, and acts as a cryogenic magnetic refrigerant having the magnetic entropy change (−ΔS{sub m}) of 20.40more »« less

One dimensional coordination polymer Gd[(SO{sub 4})(NO{sub 3})(C{sub 2}H{sub 6}SO){sub 2}] (1) is prepared through the mediation of Bronsted acid ionic liquid, which crystallized in the monoclinic space of C2/c. In this polymer, adjacent Gd atoms are linked by two SO{sub 4}{sup 2-} ions to generate a 1-D chain, and all oxygen atoms in SO{sub 4}{sup 2-} groups are connected to three nearest Gd atoms in µ{sup 3}:η{sup 1}:η{sup 1}:η{sup 2} fashion. Gd, S and N from SO{sub 4}{sup 2-} and NO{sub 3}{sup -} are precisely coplanar. The planar is coordinated by a pair of DMSO molecules, which is parallel andmore »« less

The magnetic structure of the Fe{sub 2}P-type R{sub 6}CoTe{sub 2} phases (R=Gd-Er, space group P6-bar 2m) has been investigated through magnetization measurement and neutron powder diffraction.

The title compounds have been synthesized and characterized both from the structural and magnetic point of view. Both crystallize in a new monoclinic structure strictly related to the tetragonal BaCd{sub 11} type. The structure was solved by means of X-ray single-crystal techniques for GdNi{sub 8}Si{sub 3} and confirmed for TbNi{sub 8}Si{sub 3} on powder data; the corresponding lattice parameters (obtained from Guinier powder patterns) are a=6.3259(2), b=13.7245(5), c=7.4949(3) Å, β=113.522(3)°, V{sub cell}=596.64(3) Å{sup 3} and a=6.3200(2), b=13.6987(4), c=7.4923(2) Å, β=113.494(2)°, V{sub cell}=594.88(2) Å{sup 3}.

Magnetism and magnetocaloric effect in multicomponent Laves-phase compounds: Study and comparative analysis

Journal Article Ćwik, J., E-mail: cwikjac@ml.pan.wroc.pl - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

This paper presents a review and results of comparative study of the influence of Gd on some physical properties of (R{sub 0.9}R′{sub 0.1}){sub 1−x}Gd{sub x}Co{sub 2} solid solutions with R=Dy, Ho and R′=Er, Ho and x varied from 0.05 to 0.15. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis performed at room temperature revealed that all studied solid solutions solidify with the formation of a Laves-phase MgCu{sub 2}-type structure (space group Fd−3m). The magnetization behavior and the magnetic transition are analyzed in terms of the Landau theory.
