RESUMO
A coordination polymer of linear trimeric cobalt units and melamine has been synthesized. The magnetic isotherms of violet coloured crystals as long as 400 µm show a field-induced transition in an external field of about 2 T at temperatures approximately below 2 K. It is addressed that by assuming the coexistent positive and negative exchange between the nearest-neighbour spins in the linear trimer, this metamagnetism can be interpreted as a transition from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic exchange within each trimeric spin cluster. Although weak inter-cluster or inter-chain exchange to yield a long-range magnetic order is another possible and often attributed origin of metamagnetism in low-dimensional spin systems, this study demonstrates the significance of the exchange flip within each cluster in clustered spin networks.
RESUMO
A novel molecular assembly of a cobalt-sulfate coordination polymer and melamine is synthesized under acidic conditions. Bar-shaped pink monocrystals as long as 1 mm are found to align along magnetic field lines in the proximity of a strong magnet. Magnetometry shows no hysteresis at temperatures down to 2 K but instead magnetic anisotropy and antiferromagnetic coupling. X-ray diffraction on a single crystal reveals that the cobalt-sulfate chains are along the shortest lattice vector or the crystal's long axis. The crystal alignment along the magnetic flux can be attributed to single-ion anisotropy that results in longitudinal antiferromagnetic coupling along the chain. Both structurally and magnetically isotropic crystals of metal-organic hybrid materials can be highly useful as elemental components in magneto-optics.
RESUMO
Coordination complexes and polymers are central in inorganic and materials chemistry as a variety of metal centers and coordination geometries lead to a diverse range of interesting properties. Here, size and structure control of gem-like quality monocrystals is demonstrated at room temperature. Using the same set of precursors, the copper-to-melamine molar ratio is adjusted to synthesize either a novel coordination complex of dinuclear copper and melamine (Cu2M1), or a barely-studied coordination polymer of zigzag copper-chlorine chains (Cu4M1). Crystals of the former are dark green and square with a size up to 350 µm across. The latter is light green, octagonal, and as large as 5 mm across. The magnetic properties of both crystals reflect the low-dimensional arrangements of copper. The magnetic susceptibility of Cu2M1 is modelled with a spin-1/2 dimer, and that of Cu4M1 with a spin-1/2 one-dimensional Ising chain. Controlled synthesis of such quality magnetic crystals is a prerequisite for various magnetic and magneto-optical applications.
