Macroscopic Structural Transition of Nickel Dithiolate Capsule with Uniaxial Magnetic Anisotropy in Water.

ABSTRACT: Meeting the Internet of Things (IoT) demand for flexible organic spintronics requires dynamically flexible, "soft" organic magnetic materials. These materials should be capable of reordering their macroscopic assemblies in response to external stimuli. Unlike conventional rigid, "hard" crystalline organic paramagnets, that are typically composed of open-shell π- or d/π-conjugated planar molecules and rely on intermolecular interactions in the ordered, assembled structures, soft paramagnets necessitate a delicate balance between long-range structural order (essential for controlling magnetic properties) and dynamic flexibility a challenge previously unmet for open-shell planar molecules. In this study, an amphiphilic d/π-conjugated nickel dithiolate radical anion salt is presented that self
