Imidazolium Salts with Heterometallic Complex Anions [Co2Li2(Piv)8]2–: Synthesis, Structures, and Magnetic Properties
摘要
Abstract
Imidazolium salts with complex anions [Co2Li2(Piv)8]2– are formed as undesirable products of the reactions of heterometallic compound [Co2Li2(Piv)6(Py)2] with N-heterocyclic carbenes ItBu and IPr. The study of the magnetic properties of complex (HItBu)2[Co2Li2(µ2-Piv)6(κ1-Piv)2] shows that this compound is a single molecule magnet. Slow magnetic relaxation in the complex occurs due to a combination of the direct and Raman mechanisms.
