[摘要]：Two novel tetranuclear, star-shaped iron(III) clusters, [Fe-4(acac)(6)-(Br-mp)(2)] and [FeIII4(acac)(6)(tmp)(2)], are described. Both have S=5 ground states resulting from antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbour superexchange interactions, with J=-8.2 cm(-1) and J=-8.5 cm(-1) for 1 and 2, respectively. Energy barriers for the relaxation of the magnetisation of approximately 12 cm(-1) were derived from AC suscept-ibility measurements. Magnetic resonance measurements revealed a zero-field splitting parameter D=-0.34 cm(-1) for both complexes. AC susceptibility measurements in solution demonstrated that the complexes are reasonably stable in solution. Interestingly, the magnetisation relaxation slows down significantly in frozen solution, in contrast to what is generally observed for single-molecule magnets. This was shown to result from a large increase in tau(0), the prefactor in the Arrhenius equation, with the energy barrier remaining unchanged. |
