Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of two new azido-CoII coordination architectures: From ferromagnetic coupling to single-chain-magnets

Abstract

Two new azido-CoII complexes with pyrazine carboxylato ligands, [Co(N3)(L)·H2O]n (L = pyrazine-2-carboxylato) (1) and [CoNa(N3)2(L)]n (2), have been obtained by carefully tuning the CoII : N3 ratio. Here we present the structural and magnetic characterization of these new species. Modulation of the coordination environment of CoII leads to a variation of the magnetic properties of the obtained compounds. Complex 1 exhibits ferromagnetically coupled [Co2] units that form the rungs of the ladder with a nearly negligible coupling between these units, while complex 2 is a 2D arrangement of 1D CoII single-chain magnets.
