Linking cobalt–water chains with cis-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate bridges to form a 2D network exhibiting spin-canted antiferromagnetism†
Abstract
A two-dimensional magnetic network, [Co(cis-CHDA)(μ2-H2O)(H2O)2]·2H2O (1), featuring one-dimensional water-bridged Co2+ chains that are linked by pure cis-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate (cis-CHDA) bridges has been obtained. Magnetic studies show that 1 exhibits spin-canted antiferromagnetism with spin-glass behavior at low temperature.
