title: Syntheses and magnetic properties of Cu(II)(hfac)2 and Mn(II)(hfac)2 complexes of 4-pyridyl-substituted thioaminyl radicals.
abstract: Two types of Cu(II)(hfac)2 and Mn(II)(hfac)2 complexes of N-(4-pyridylthio)-4-ethoxycarbonyl-2,6-bis(4-chlorophenyl)phenylaminyl (1) and N-(4-pyridylthio)-2,4,6-tris(4-chlorophenyl)phenylaminyl (2) were prepared and their X-ray crystallographic and magnetic studies were performed. Mixtures of Cu(II)(hfac)2 and 1 and Mn(II)(hfac)2 and 2 in anhydrous heptane-benzene solution gave 1 : 2 complexes of M(II)(hfac)2 (M = Cu, Mn) and 1 or 2 in 73-75% yields. For Cu(II)(hfac)2(1)2 and Mn(II)(hfac)2(2)2 X-ray crystallographic analyses were successfully performed. The magnetic behaviors for the two metal complexes were investigated with a SQUID magnetometer. The analyses for the chimolTvs. T plots of Cu(II)(hfac)2(1)2 were carried out by the numerical diagonalization of the Heisenberg Hamiltonian matrix (4096 x 4096 matrix) for the four repeating units of the complex (12-spin system). The exchange interaction between the copper(II) ion and the thioaminyl radicals is ferromagnetic (J1/kB = +28 K) and the interactions between the complexes is antiferromagnetic (J2/kB = -13 K). The magnetic behavior of Mn(II)(hfac)2(2)2 complexes is well analyzed with the theoretical equation of a 1/2-5/2-1/2 three-spin system taking the intermolecular interaction (theta) into account. The exchange interaction between the Mn(II) ion and the thioaminyl radicals is antiferromagnetic (J/kB = -4.2 K) and theta = -1.0 K. These magnetic behaviors could be well explained in terms of their crystal structures.
