Abstract
The crystal structure of the monomeric vanadium(III) species mer-[V(bipy)Cl(3)(MeCN)] (1; bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine) is reported. The solvothermal reaction of [V(bipy)Cl(3)(MeCN)]with Na(O(2)CPh) yields the T-shaped cluster [V(3)(O)Cl(3)(O(2)CPh)(2)(bipy)(2)(OEt)(2)], magnetic studies of which show strong intramolecular antiferromagnetic coupling giving a well isolated S = 1 ground state. Solvothermal treatment of 1 with triols yields a series of polymetallic clusters [V(4)Cl(6)(thme)(2)(bipy)(3)], [V(3)Cl(4)(Hcht)(2)(bipy)(2)]Cl and [V(8)(OH)(2)Cl(4)(cht)(4)(O(2)CPh)(6)(bipy)(2)], structurally related to previously reported {M(4)} centred triangles. Magnetic studies of this series reveal very weak intramolecular antiferromagnetic exchange and very strong local zero-field splitting effects.
