The first A2B2-heterometal ferrimagnetic chain. Structures and magnetic properties of polymeric [Gd2Cu2]n and the corresponding monomer
Abstract
One-dimensional polymeric complexes consisting of alternating dicopper(II) and digadolinium(III) units exhibited ferrimagnetic behavior which was ascribable to antiferromagnetic coupling across the oximate N–O bridges between the high-spin homodinuclear units.
