Experimental and Theoretical Identification of the Origin of Magnetic Anisotropy in Intermediate Spin Iron(III) Complexes

The complexes [FeL(N2S2)X] [in which L(N2S2)=2,2′‐(2,2′‐bipryridine‐6,6′‐diyl)bis(1,1′‐diphenylethanethiolate) and X=Cl, Br and I], characterized crystallographically earlier and here (Fe(L)Br), reveal a square pyramidal coordinated Fe(III) ion. Unusually, all three complexes have intermediate spin...

Descripción
Sumario:The complexes [FeL(N2S2)X] [in which L(N2S2)=2,2′‐(2,2′‐bipryridine‐6,6′‐diyl)bis(1,1′‐diphenylethanethiolate) and X=Cl, Br and I], characterized crystallographically earlier and here (Fe(L)Br), reveal a square pyramidal coordinated Fe(III) ion. Unusually, all three complexes have intermediate spin ground states. Susceptibility measurements, powder cw X‐ and Q‐band EPR spectra, and zero‐field powder Mössbauer spectra show that all complexes display distinct magnetic anisotropy, which has been rationalized by DFT calculations.
