A number of complexes in the series Cu(acac)(X), where X = OMe-, OEt-, OCH2Ph-, N3- and pz- (the pyrazolate anion), have been prepared and their magnetic properties determined down to liquid nitrogen temperatures. Also reported is the complex Cu2(acac)2(OH)(pz). In each case, the magnetism is interpreted in terms of spin coupling within a binuclear unit. All coupling is antiferromagnetic in nature, except for X = N3- which appears to be weakly ferromagnetic.
