Abstract
The trinuclear complex [L 2Cu 3(CF 3CO 2) 4] ( 1) has been synthesized and its crystal structure determined. It consists of a linear arrangement of Cu(II) centers. The central copper atom is bonded to six oxygen atoms and has a tetragonally distorted octahedral geometry, while the terminal copper atoms are bonded to three oxygen and two nitrogen atoms and show a distorted square pyramidal geometry. The complex shows di-μ( O, O′) syn– syn carboxylate bridging as well as monoatomic (μ-O) bridging, along with phenolate (μ-O) oxygen bridging. Cryomagnetic investigations in the range 2–300 K revealed an antiferromagnetic spin exchange interaction with J = −95.7 cm −1, based on the isotropic exchange model H ex = −2 J[ S 1 · S 2 + S 2 · S 3].
