A Mn12 single-molecule magnet [Mn12O12(OAc)12(dpp)4] (dppH = diphenyl phosphate) with no coordinating water molecules.

The preparation and physical characterization are reported for a novel single-molecule magnet [Mn(12)O(12)(OAc)(12)(dpp)(4)] (dppH = diphenyl phosphate) with no coordinating water molecules. The crystal structure analysis reveals that there are four five-coordinate Mn(III) ions with Mn.H approaches. Addition of water in CD(2)Cl(2) solution was monitored by (1)H NMR, which showed that H(2)O could coordinate to a vacant site of a five-coordinate Mn(III) ion in solution. The measurements and analyses of magnetization hysteresis and ac magnetic susceptibility indicate that the title complex is a single-molecule magnet with a quantum tunneling behavior, whose ground state was tentatively assigned to S = 10 with g = 1.78 and D = -0.60 K.

Bis(mu-6-hydroxypicolinato)-mu-oxo-bis[dipyridinemanganese(III)] monohydrate.

The title compound, [Mn2(mu-O)(C6H3NO3)2(C5H5N)4].H2O, was isolated from the reaction of 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid with [Mn12O12(CH3COO)16(H2O)4] in pyridine. The dimanganese complex has twofold symmetry; the MnIII atoms are bridged by one oxo and two amidate ligands and show compressed octahedral Jahn-Teller distortion. The molecular packing comprises a three-dimensional structure constructed by means of extensive intermolecular interactions, including three kinds of hydrogen bonds and pi-pi interactions.
