Experimental assignment of long-range magnetic communication through Pd & Pt metallophilic contacts.

ABSTRACT: Record-breaking magnetic exchange interactions have previously been reported for 3d-metal dimers of the form [M(Pt(SAc)₄)(pyNO₂)]₂ (M = Ni or Co) that are linked in the solid state via metallophilic Pt⋯Pt bridges. This contrasts the terminally capped monomers [M(Pt(SAc)₄)(py)₂], for which neither metallophilic bridges nor magnetic exchange interactions are found. Computational modeling has shown that the magnetic exchange interaction is facilitated by the pseudo-closed shell d⁸⋯d⁸ metallophilic interaction between the filled Pt²⁺ 5d _{z ²} orbitals. We present here inelastic neutron scattering experiments on these complexes, wherein the dimers present an oscillatory mome
