Abstract

A new μ3-oxo trinuclear chromium(III) propionate cluster, [Cr3(μ3-O)(O2CCH2CH3)6(pyr)3]NO3·0.25(H2O) (1), has been synthesized by reaction of a μ3-oxo trinuclear chromium(III) propionate precursor [Cr3(μ3-O)(O2CCH2CH3)6(H2O)3]NO3 with a pyrazol ligand (pyr) and characterized by IR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray structure determination, and thermal analysis. Magnetic susceptibility and magnetization studies revealed antiferromagnetic exchange interactions within the trinuclear Cr(III) cluster (J = −11.9 cm−1) and determined the electronic ground state (S = ½) of the compound.
