Single Molecule Magnets of Co₂ and Co₂La MOFs Synthesized by New Schiff Base Ligand N,N'-bis(o-Vanillinidene) Ethylenediamine (o-VEDH₂).

ABSTRACT: Schiff base ligand N,N'-bis(o-vanillinidene) ethylenediamine (o-VEDH₂) has been employed to synthesize new [Co^IICo^IV(o-VED)(OAc)₂(μ₂-OAc)(OMe)]•MeOH (1) and [ Co2IV (o-VED)₂(en)₂(NCCH₃)(OCH₃)][La(NO₃)₆]( NO3- )•2MeOH•MeCN•H₂O (2) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that have interesting single molecule magnets (SMMs) property. The synthesized complexes are characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-visible spectroscopy, and squid magnetic measurement. Single crystal X-ray data show that both complexes crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system with P2
