Crystallization condition-controlled assembly of oxygen-bridged tetranuclear and hexanuclear Ni(ii) clusters: syntheses, structures and properties

Abstract

Crystallization of a Schiff base with nickel acetate in different solvents yields a tetranuclear (dicubane-like [Ni4O4] core with two missing vertices) and a hexanuclear cluster ([Ni6O6] core with two nickel(II) ions attached to a [Ni4O4] cubane through oxygen bridges). Metal centers within these clusters exhibit ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic coupling interactions, respectively.
