Article Abstract
The first use of the Schiff base chelate N-naphthalidene-o-aminophenol (naphH ) in Co/Ln chemistry has afforded a family of isostructural [Co Ln (OMe) (naph) (O CMe) (MeOH) ] (Ln=Tb, Dy and Er) complexes, revealing a rare {Co Ln(μ -OMe)} triangular core composed of two diamagnetic Co ions and a 4f-ion with slightly distorted square antiprismatic geometry. Alternating current (ac) magnetic susceptibility studies revealed that {Co Dy}, and its magnetic diluted analogue {Co Dy Y }, behave as mononuclear single-molecule magnets (SMMs) with similar energy barriers for the magnetization reversal, U , of ~85-90 K. SMM properties were also detected for {Co Er}, with the compound exhibiting a U of 18.7 K under an applied magnetic field of 800 Oe. To interpret the experimental magnetic results, ab initio CASSCF/RASSI-SO and DFT calculations were performed as a means of exploring the single-ion characteristics of Ln ions and comprehend the role of the diamagnetic Co ions in the magnetization relaxation of the three heterometallic compounds.

We report the synthesis and characterization of a new Schiff base ligand (HL), derived from 2-picolylamine and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde. Its reaction with Ni(NO)·6HO and Ln(NO)·HO (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy) in the presence of triethylamine affords a carbonato-bridged family of heterobimetallic NiLn complexes: [NiLn(L)(L')(μ-CO)(NO)]·MeOH·HO (). During the complexation reaction, ligand HL undergoes an oxidation, followed by C-C coupling to generate a secondary ligand (HL').

The integration of the rich electronic properties of 3d-4f heterometallic clusters with rigid and diamagnetic polyoxometalates is of great interest and is expected to yield novel materials with enhanced properties due to synergistic effects. For the first time, the study succeeds in introducing fluorescent Zn-Ln heterometallic clusters into polyoxoniobates (PONbs), forming a family of rare giant heterometallic PONbs with various architectures, including 78-metal {ZnEuNb}, 112-metal {ZnLnNb} (Ln = La, Y), and 165-metal {NaZnLnNb} (Ln = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho). These heterometallic PONbs exhibit many appealing structural features and unique building blocks.

In this study, coumarin-functionalized Ni(II) complex has been demonstrated to act as a fluorescent probe for the quantification of coordination-induced spin-state switching (CISSS) behavior fluorescence quenching. Upon coordination with pyridine, the Ni(II) center undergoes a spin-state transition from a diamagnetic to a paramagnetic form, leading to the observable changes in fluorescence intensity. Deconvolution of quenching contributions based on three distinct models─CISSS quenching, sphere of action, and dynamic (collisional) quenching─reveals that static quenching mechanisms (involving CISSS quenching and sphere of action) dominate throughout the titration process, with CISSS quenching contributing up to 28% maximally.

Although external magnetic fields (eMFs) may influence effective interactions between nanoscale particles in liquids, their effects remain poorly understood. In this work, we introduce a simplified model of a solvated nanoparticle that consists of localized magnetic domains at its surface to represent groups of paramagnetic ions, forming nanodomains whose effective magnetic dipole moments are at least one order of magnitude greater than the individual ions. We use classical density functional theory to estimate the effective interactions between these localized magnetic nanoparticles (LMNPs) solvated in a diamagnetic solvent.

Two terephthalonitrile radical salts have been synthesized, isolated and characterized as Li(tpn)˙(THF) and Na(tpn)˙(THF) (tpn = terephthalonitrile; THF = tetrahydrofuran). Single crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that the lithium and sodium ions are bridged by tpn˙ and further coordinated by THF solvent molecules, forming 1-D and 3-D coordination networks, respectively. While the lithium salt exhibits paramagnetic behaviour, the sodium analogue is diamagnetic in the solid state due to strong π-π interactions between tightly stacked tpn˙ pairs.
