Oxalate-based soluble 2D magnets: the series [K(18-crown-6)]3[M(II)3(H2O)4{M(III)(ox)3}3] (M(III) = Cr, Fe; M(II) = Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Cu; ox = C2O4(2-); 18-crown-6 = C12H24O6).
The synthesis and magnetic properties of the oxalate-based molecular soluble magnets with general formula [K(18-crown-6)] 3[M (II) 3(H 2O) 4{M (III)(ox) 3} 3] (M (III) = Cr, Fe; M (II) = Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, Cu; ox = C 2O 4 (2-)) are here described. All the reported compounds are isostructural and built up by 2D bimetallic networks formed by alternating M (III) and M (II) ions connected through oxalate anions. Whereas the Cr (III)M (II) derivatives behave as ferromagnets with critical temperatures up to 8 K, the Fe (III)M (II) present ferri- or weak ferromagnetic ordering up to 26 K.
