New Ni4Na2-phenylgermsesquioxane architecture: synthesis, structure and slow dynamic behaviour†
Abstract
The first Ni(II)-based metallagermaniumsesquioxane cage compound [(PhGeO1.5)10(NiO)4(NaO0.5)2] presents a sandwich-like structure where two germsesquioxane cages are linked through an {NiO}4 core and exhibits slow dynamics of the magnetization.
