Abstract

Heterometallic Coii-Lii compounds with N-heterocyclic carbene 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (IMes), tri phenylphosphine (Ph3P) and pyridine (py), [Co2Li2(Piv)6(IMes)2] (Piv is the anion of pivalic acid), [Co2Li2(Piv)6(Ph3P)2] and [Co2Li2(Fur)6(py)2] (Fur is the anion of 2-furoic acid), respectively, have been prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Easy-plane magnetic anisotropy in Coii complexes with pseudo-tetrahedral cores CoO3X (X = C, P and N) was revealed by measuring the magnetic properties together with quantum-chemical calculations using the SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2 approach. The field-induced slow magnetic relaxation of the complexes was mainly attributed to the Raman and direct processes.
