title: [Ni(cyclam)(mu(1,3)-dca)2Cu(mu(1,5)-dca)2]: a genuine 3D bimetallic coordination polymer containing both mu(1,3)- and mu(1,5)-bidentate dicyanamide bridges and a ferromagnetic interaction between copper(II) and nickel(II) ions.
abstract: The structure of [Ni(cyclam)(mu(1,3)-dca)2Cu(mu(1,5)-dca)2], a genuine 3D dicyanamide-bridged bimetallic coordination polymer, is made up of 2D [Cu(mu(1,5)-dca)2]n layers connected by [Ni(cyclam)(mu(1,3)-dca)2] bridging moieties; it exhibits a ferromagnetic exchange interaction between copper(II) and nickel(II) ions through the mu(1,3)-bidentate dicyanamide bridges.
