A molecular metal ferromagnet from the organic donor bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene and bimetallic oxalate complexes.
A new dual-function hybrid molecular material has been obtained from the organic donor bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene and the honeycomb oxalate-based bimetallic network [MnCr(ox)3]-. This multilayer material consists of layers of the inorganic anionic 2D network, responsible for the appearance of ferromagnetic ordering below 5.3 K, alternating with segregated layers of the organic cation radical responsible for the transport properties: metal-like conductivity is observed from room temperature down to 150 K.
