dataset
posted on 2007-04-16, 00:00 authored by Alok Ranjan Paital, A-Qing Wu, Guo, Guillem Aromí, Jordi Ribas-Ariño, Debashis RayTwo neutral dinuclear metallamacrocycles, [Cu2(hbca)2]·2CHCl3·2H2O (1) and [Zn2(hbca)2]·7H2O (2), have been assembled from
reactions of the new rigid carbazole-based ligand H2hbca [N,N‘-bis(2-hydroxobenzylidene)-9H-carbazole-3,6-diamine] with copper(II) or zinc(II) acetate. The extended aromatic ligand spacer is
responsible for intermetallic antiferromagnetic exchange, which is
rationalized using the spin-polarization formalism with the help of
density functional theory calculations.
