Magneto-structural studies of an unusual [MnIIIMnIIGdIII(OR)4]4– partial cubane from 2,2'-bis-p-tBu-calix[4]arene
Abstract
Reaction of 2,2'-bis-p-tBu-calix[4]arene (H8L) with MnCl2·4H2O, GdCl3·6H2O and 2,6-pyridinedimethanol (H2pdm) affords [MnIIIMnIIGdIII(H3L)(pdmH)(pdm)(MeOH)2(dmf)]·3MeCN·dmf (3·3MeCN·dmf) upon vapour diffusion of MeCN into the basic dmf/MeOH mother liquor. 3 crystallises in the tetragonal space group P41212 with the asymmetric unit comprising the entire cluster. The highly unusual core contains a triangular arrangement of MnIIIMnIIGdIII ions housed within a [MnIIIMnIIGdIII(OR)4]4– partial cubane. Magnetic susceptibility and magnetisation data reveal best fit parameters JMn(II)–Mn(III) = +0.415 cm–1, JMn(III)–Gd(III) = +0.221 cm–1, JMn(II)–Gd(III) = –0.258 cm–1 and DMn(III) = –4.139 cm–1. Theoretically derived magnetic exchange interactions, anisotropy parameters, and magneto-structural correlations for 3 are in excellent agreement with the experimental data.
