Single-Molecule Magnetic Behavior in a Neutral Terbium(III) Complex of a Picolinate-Based Nitronyl Nitroxide Free Radical

The terdentate anionic picolinate-based nitronyl nitroxide (picNN) free radical forms neutral and robust homoleptic complexes with rare earth-metal ions. The nonacoordinated Tb3+ complex Tb(picNN)3·6H2O is a single-molecule magnet with an activation energy barrier Δ = 22.8 ± 0.5 K and preexponential...

Zusammenfassung:The terdentate anionic picolinate-based nitronyl nitroxide (picNN) free radical forms neutral and robust homoleptic complexes with rare earth-metal ions. The nonacoordinated Tb3+ complex Tb(picNN)3·6H2O is a single-molecule magnet with an activation energy barrier Δ = 22.8 ± 0.5 K and preexponential factor τ0 = (5.5 ± 1.1) × 10–9 s. It shows magnetic hysteresis below 1 K.
