title: A three-dimensional complex with a one-dimensional cobalt-hydroxyl chain based on planar nonanuclear clusters showing spin-canted antiferromagnetism.
abstract: A new three-dimensional magnetic network, [Co9(OH)6(C42H24O18P3N3)2(H2O)8] (1), has been successfully prepared by utilizing the flexible hexacarboxylate ligand derived from cyclotriphosphazene, which had been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurement. This compound consists of one-dimensional (1D) cobalt-hydroxyl chains based on planar nonanuclear clusters, which are located in the b-c plane to form the nearly two-dimensional cobalt layer. Magnetic measurements reveal that 1 shows spin-canted antiferromagnetism with spin-glass behavior. These results suggest that reasonable design and choice of large carboxylate ligand based on a specific scaffold could be effective for the construction of magnetic materials based on a novel 1D magnetic chain.
