Mn^II(TCNE)_3/2(I₃)_1/2–A 3D Network‐Structured Organic‐Based Magnet and Comparison to a 2D Analog

Abstract

MnII(TCNE)3/2(I3)1/2 and MnII(TCNE)[C4(CN)8]1/2 [tetracyanoethylene (TCNE)] are organic-based magnets with 3D and 2D extended network structures with vastly different magnetic behavior. They have similar ferrimagnetic coupled layers of MnII(TCNE)•− with different interlayer couplings, which lead, respectively, to net ferrimagnetic (Tc = 171 K) and antiferromagnetic (Tc = 68 K) order.
