Abstract

The interaction of Mn(ClO4)2·6H2O with salicylaldoxime (H2sao) in the presence of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) sodium diclofenac (Nadicl) or indomethacin (Hindo) leads to the formation of the hexanuclear Mn(III) clusters [Mn6(O)2(dicl)2(sao)6(CH3OH)6] (1) and [Mn6(O)2(indo)2(sao)6(H2O)4] (2) both characterized as stepladder inverse-9-metallacrown-3 accommodating dicl- or indo- ligands, respectively. When the interaction of MnCl2·4H2O with Nadicl or Hindo is in the absence of H2sao, the mononuclear Mn(II) complexes [Mn(dicl)2(CH3OH)4] (3) and [Mn(indo)2(CH3OH)4] (4) were isolated. The complexes were characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic techniques, and the structure of complexes 1 and 2 was characterized by X-ray crystallography. Magnetic measurements (dc and ac) were carried out in order to investigate the nature of magnetic interactions between the magnetic ions and the overall magnetic behavior of the complexes.
