Effect of a Substitute in a Ligand and a Counterion on the Properties of a Heptanuclear Mixed-Valence Iron Complex
摘要
Abstract
New heptanuclear mixed-valence iron complexes with pentadentate ligands are synthesized, and their magnetic properties are analyzed. Magnetometry and EPR show that thiocyanate anions promote spin-crossover properties. Introducing long alkoxy chains into a molecule gives it thermotropic liquid crystalline properties and enhances its cooperative magnetic properties.
