Abstract
Three new trinuclear copper (II) complexes, [(CuL1)3(μ3-OH)][ClO4]2⋅3 H2O (1), [(CuL2)3(μ3-OH)][ClO4]2⋅H2O (2) and [(CuL3)3(μ3-OH)][ClO4]2⋅7 H2O (3) have been synthesized from the three tridentate Schiff bases HL1, HL2 and HL3 (HL1 = 6- aminomethyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-azahex-2-en-1-one, HL2 = 6-aminoethyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-azahex-2-en-1-one and HL3 = 6-aminodimethyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-azahex-2-en-1-one). They have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and IR and UV spectroscopy, and their magnetic properties have been investigated. All the compounds contain a partial cubane [Cu3O4] core consisting of the trinuclear unit [(CuL)3(μ3-OH)]2+, perchlorate ions and water molecules. In each of the complexes, the copper atoms are five-coordinate with a distorted square-pyramidal geometry except complex 1, in which one of the CuII of the trinuclear unit is weakly coordinated to one of the perchlorate ions. Magnetic measurements performed in SQUID MPMS-XL7 using polycrystalline samples at an applied field of 2 kOe indicate a global intramolecular ferromagnetic coupling. Magnetostructural correlations have been calculated on the basis of theoretical models without symmetry restriction. Continuous shape measurements are an appropriate tool for establishing the degree of distortion of the CuII from square-planar geometry. Structural, theoretical and experimental magnetic data indicate that the higher the degree of distortion, the greater the ferromagnetic coupling.
