Constructing [Co II6] hexagon-centered heterometallic {Ln6Co6} (Ln = Y, Eu and Dy) clusters with a calix[8]arene ligand

Abstract

Three isostructural 3d–4f polynuclear clusters {(LnIII6CoII6)(C8A)3} (Ln = Y (CIAC-248), Eu (CIAC-249), Dy (CIAC-250); C8A = p-tert-butylcalix[8]arene) were synthesized under solvothermal conditions. These three compounds feature some tripod-like entities in which three Ln2-C8A secondary building units acting as the legs bolster a [Co6] hexagon. Magnetic study indicated that the complex {(EuIII6CoII6)(C8A)3} (CIAC-249) exhibits spin glass behaviour at ≈9 K, and the complex {(DyIII6CoII6)(C8A)3} (CIAC-250) shows slow relaxation of magnetization.
