RESUMO
The spin-spin and magnetic properties of two (nitronyl nitroxide)-(di-p-anisylamine-phenothiazine) diradical cation salts, (DAA-PTZ)+ -NNâ MBr4 - (M=Ga, Fe), have been investigated. These diradical-cation species were prepared by the cross-coupling of iodophenothiazine DAA-PTZ-I with NN-AuPPh3 followed by oxidation with the thianthrenium radical cation (TA+ â MBr4 - ). These salts were found to be highly stable under aerobic conditions. For the GaBr4 salt, large ferromagnetic intramolecular and small antiferromagnetic intermolecular interactions (J1 /kB =+320â K and J2 /kB =-2â K, respectively) were observed. The magnetic property of the Fe3+ salt was analyzed by using a six-spin model assuming identical intramolecular exchange interaction (J3 /kB =+320â K) and the other exchange interactions (J4 /kB =-7â K and J5 /kB =-4â K). A significant color change was observed in the UV/Vis/NIR absorption spectra upon electrochemical oxidation of the doublet DAA-PTZ-NN to the triplet (DAA-PTZ)+ -NN.
RESUMO
A triangular gold(iminonitroxide-2-ide) trimer complex (5) was prepared and investigated to determine its magnetic properties. The results showed that the metalloid triradical is highly stable, even in solution under aerated conditions. The intramolecular exchange interaction of 5 was found to be positive (Jintra /kB ≈+29â K), thus showing that 5 is in a quartet ground state. In addition, a silver sandwich complex (5-Ag(+) -5) was prepared and its electronic and magnetic properties were also clarified.
