Syntheses, structures, and chiroptical and magnetic properties of chiral clusters built from Schiff bases: a novel [MnIIMn III6Na I2] core†
Abstract
Chiral clusters with MnIIMnIII3NaI and the new MnIIMnIII6NaI2 cores have been synthesised employing enantiomerically pure Schiff bases and halide ligands. The new compounds have been characterized by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and magnetic susceptibility.
