Octacyanometalate-Based Ferrimagnetic M^VMn^III (M = Mo, W) Bimetallic Chain Racemates with Slow Magnetic Relaxations

Abstract

Cyanide-bridged M(V)-Mn(III) (M = Mo, W) bimetallic chain complexes with racemic spatial dispositions were constructed by self-assembling [M(CN)(8)](3-) precursors and Mn(III) Schiff bases. Antiferromagnetic couplings between spin centers within a chain result in a ferrimagnetic nature, and slow magnetic relaxations are observed as well.
