Magnetic studies of a syn-anti triatomic carboxylate-bridging chainlike copper(II) complex exhibiting ferromagnetic exchange.
The magnetic properties of triatomic syn-anti carboxylate bridging copper(II) complex, {[Cu(2,2'-bipydine)(maleate)].2H2O}infinity (complex 1), were investigated experimentally and theoretically, suggesting weak ferromagnetic intrachain interaction. The magnetic data were analyzed and interpreted in terms of Heisenberg chain model corrected by a mean molecular field. Fitting parameters obtained for J, g, and zJ' are 3.14 cm(-1), 2.08, and -0.13, respectively. Density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation was applied to calculate the electronic structure and spin distribution of the present complex. The structural and electronic factors controlling the magnetic interactions were also determined. Ferromagnetic intrachain interactions through triatomic syn-anti carboxylate bridge result from nonplanarity of the bridging network, the exchange pathway involving both the sigma and pi orbitals of the carboxylate bridge and the spin delocalization of each magnetic orbital on the atoms of the carboxylate bridge from the copper(II) centers.
