Design of metal-complex magnets. Syntheses and magnetic properties of mixed-metal assemblies {NBu4[MCr(ox)3]}x (NBu4+ = tetra(n-butyl)ammonium ion; ox2- = oxalate ion; M = Mn2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+)

Abstract: The reaction of K 3 [Cr(ox) 3 ].3H 2 O, a metal(II) salt, and tetra(n-butyl)ammonium bromide in the molar ratio of 1:1:1.5 in water at room temperature afforded a series of mixed-metal assemblies with the formula {NBu 4 [MCr(ox) 3 ]} x (M=Mn 2+ , Fe 2+ , Co 2+ , Ni 2+ , Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ ).

Complexes derived from the reaction of manganese(III) Schiff base complexes and hexacyanoferrate(III): Syntheses, multidimensional network structures, and magnetic properties

Abstract: The reaction between the [Mn(BS)(H2O)]+ monomeric and [Mn2(μ-BS)2(H2O)2]2+ dimeric cations and [Fe(CN)6]3- gave rise to cation−anion interaction via the formation of [FeC⋮NMn] bridges. Depending on the nature of the Schiff base and regardless of the stoichiometry used, either the trimeric anion [{Mn(BS)}2{Fe(CN)6}]- (BS = 3-MeOsalen, 6; 5-Clsalen, 7; 5-Brsalen, 8; salcy, 10) or the pentameric cation [{Mn(BS)}4{Fe(CN)6}]+ (BS = saltmen, 9) is formed, which has been assembled by the K+ cation or the ClO4- anion, respectively. The X-ray analysis of 6 revealed a two-dimensional network layer structure. The magnetic measurements showed its metamagnetic behavior, where the ferromagnetic interaction operates within each layer and the antiferromagnetic interaction operates between the layers. The Neel temperature, TN, is 9.2 K, and the critical field at 2 K is 300 Oe. The temperature dependent magnetic susceptibilities of 7 and 8 are in agreement with a discrete, symmetrical, trinuclear structure Mn(III)Fe(III)Mn...

Catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins using chiral (salen)manganese(III) complexes

Abstract: Several kinds of chiral (salen)manganese(III) complexes ( 2 and 3 ) having chiral salicylaldehyde and chiral ethylenediamine moieties were prepared and used for catalytic asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalized olefins with iodosobenzene as a terminal oxidant. Catalysts 2 and 3 were found to show the characteristic substrate specificity for the enantiofacial selection of olefins, respectively. Furthermore, the addition of donor ligands such as pyridine N -oxide or 2-methylimidazole to the epoxidation reaction system was found to alter the enantioselectivity. As a result, the highest enantioselectivity for nonenzaymatic catalytic epoxidation was achieved for ( E )-1-phenylpropene (56% ee, with 2c in the presence of 2-methylimidazole), ( E )-stilbene (48% ee, with 3a ), and dihydronaphthalene (83% ee, with 3a in the presence of pyridine N -oxide).

Engineering coordination polymers towards applications

Abstract: The development in the field of coordination polymers or metal-organic coordination networks, MOCNs (metal-organic frameworks, MOFs) is assessed in terms of property investigations in the areas of catalysis, chirality, conductivity, luminescence, magnetism, spin-transition (spin-crossover), non-linear optics (NLO) and porosity or zeolitic behavior upon which potential applications could be based.

Recent advances in the synthesis and application of layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets.

Abstract: Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are a class of ionic lamellar compounds made up of positively charged brucite-like layers with an interlayer region containing charge compensating anions and solvation molecules. Delamination of LDHs is an interesting route for producing positively charged thin platelets with a thickness of a few atomic layers, which can be used as nanocomposites for polymers or as building units for making new designed organic-inorganic or inorganic-inorganic nanomaterials. The synthesis of nanosized LDH platelets can be generally classified into two approaches, bottom-up and top-down. It requires modification of the LDH interlamellar environment and then selection of an appropriate solvent system. In DDS intercalated LDHs, the aliphatic tails of the DDS- anions exhibit a high degree of interdigitation in order to maximize guest-guest dispersive interactions. Bellezza reported that the LDH colloids can also been obtained by employing a reverse microemulsion approach.

Magnetic metal-organic frameworks.

Abstract: The purpose of this critical review is to give a representative and comprehensive overview of the arising developments in the field of magnetic metal–organic frameworks, in particular those containing cobalt(II). We examine the diversity of magnetic exchange interactions between nearest-neighbour moment carriers, covering from dimers to oligomers and discuss their implications in infinite chains, layers and networks, having a variety of topologies. We progress to the different forms of short-range magnetic ordering, giving rise to single-molecule-magnets and single-chain-magnets, to long-range ordering of two- and three-dimensional networks (323 references).

Secondary building units, nets and bonding in the chemistry of metal–organic frameworks

Abstract: This critical review presents a comprehensive study of transition-metal carboxylate clusters which may serve as secondary building units (SBUs) towards construction and synthesis of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). We describe the geometries of 131 SBUs, their connectivity and composition. This contribution presents a comprehensive list of the wide variety of transition-metal carboxylate clusters which may serve as secondary building units (SBUs) in the construction and synthesis of metal–organic frameworks. The SBUs discussed here were obtained from a search of molecules and extended structures archived in the Cambridge Structure Database (CSD, version 5.28, January 2007) which included only crystals containing metal carboxylate linkages (241 references).
