RESUMO
Three isostructural Cu 2Ln 2 1-D polymers [Cu 2Ln 2L 10(H 2O) 4.3H 2O] n where Ln = Gd ( 1), Er ( 2), and Y ( 3) and HL= trans-2-butenoic acid, were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, electron paramagnetic resonance, and magnetic measurements. Pairs of alternate Cu 2 and Ln 2 dinuclear units are combined into a linear array by a set of one covalent eta (2):eta (1):mu 2 carboxylate oxygen and two H bonds, at Cu...Ln distances of ca. 4.5 A. These units exhibit four eta (1):eta (1):mu 2 and two eta (2):eta (1):mu 2 carboxylate bridges, respectively. Magnetic measurements between 2 and 300 K, fields B 0 = mu 0 H between 0 and 9 T, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements at the X-band and room temperature are reported. The magnetic susceptibilities indicate bulk antiferromagnetic behavior of the three compounds at low temperatures. Magnetization and EPR data for 1 and 3 allowed evaluation of the exchange couplings between both Cu and Gd ions in their dinuclear units and between Cu and Gd neighbor ions in the spin chains. The data for the isolated Cu 2 units in 3 yield g || = 2.350 and g [symbol: see text] = 2.054, J Cu-Cu = -338 (3) cm (-1) for the exchange coupling [ H ex(1,2) = - J 1-2 S1 x S2], and D 0 = -0.342 (0.003) cm (-1) and E 0 = 0.003 (0.001) cm (-1) for the zero-field-splitting parameters of the triplet state arising from anisotropic spin-spin interactions. Considering tetranuclear blocks Gd-Cu-Cu-Gd in 1, with the parameters for the Cu 2 unit obtained for 3, we evaluated ferromagnetic interactions between Cu and Gd neighbors, J Cu-Gd = 13.0 (0.1) cm (-1), and between Gd ions in the Gd 2 units, J Gd-Gd = 0.25 (0.02) cm (-1), with g Gd = 1.991. The bulk antiferromagnetic behavior of 1 is a consequence of the antiferromagnetic coupling between Cu ions and of the magnitude, |J Cu-Gd|, of the Cu-Gd exchange coupling. Compound 2 displays a susceptibility peak at 15 K that may be interpreted as the combined result from antiferromagnetic couplings between Er (III) ions in Er 2 units and their coupling with the Cu 2 units.

The magnetic properties of the Cu(II)-peptide compounds (L-tyrosyl-L-leucinato)Cu(II) and (L-tryptophyl-glycinato)Cu(II), to be identified as Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and Cu(II)Trp-Gly, respectively, have been investigated by specific heat (0.08 < T < 28 K), dc magnetization (2 < T < 80 K, with B(0) = mu(o)H < or = 9 T), and ac magnetic susceptibility (with B(0) = 0 for 0.03 < T < 3 K and B(0) up to 9 T for 2 < T < 80 K) measurements. Above approximately 1 K, the specific heat and magnetization of both compounds display a ferromagnetic (FM) spin chain behavior sustained by syn-anti carboxylate bridges connecting equatorially Cu(II) ions at about 5 A. To model this behavior, we calculated the eigenvalues of Heisenberg chains with up to 20 spins 1/2 and used the method of Bonner and Fisher. A global fit of the model to the specific heat and magnetization data gives 2J(0)/k(B) = 3.60(5) K and 2.59(5) K for the intrachain exchange interactions in Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and Cu(II)Trp-Gly, respectively (H(ex)(i,j) = -2J(0) S(i).S(j)). These values of 2J(0) are discussed in terms of structural properties of the carboxylate bridges in the two compounds. Using the parameters obtained from the global fit, we calculated isothermal susceptibilities in agreement with the ac susceptibilities measured with small applied dc magnetic fields. However, the ac susceptibility measured with applied dc fields larger than 1 T lie between the values calculated for the isothermal and adiabatic susceptibilities. At 0.16 K for Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and 0.53 K for Cu(II)Trp-Gly, the observed specific heat and magnetic susceptibility display peaks associated to three-dimensional magnetic phase transitions. The interchain exchange couplings 2J(1) producing the 3D magnetic order are ferromagnetic and have magnitudes 2J(1)/k(B) approximately 0.015 and 0.073 K for Cu(II)Tyr-Leu and Cu(II)Trp-Gly, respectively.

In the title compound, [Cu(C15H20N2O4)]n, the copper(II) coordination is square planar. The anionic L-tyrosyl-L-leucinate ligand binds in an N,N',O-tridentate mode to one Cu(II) cation on one side and in an O-monodentate mode to a second Cu(II) cation on the other side, thus defining -Cu-O-C-O-Cu'- chains which run along the a axis. These chains are held together by a strong hydrogen bond involving the hydroxy H atom.

We report the structure and the magnetic properties of a cobalt(II) compound with the amino acid l-threonine, Co(C(4)H(8)NO(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2). It crystallizes in the orthorhombic chiral space group C222(1), with a = 5.843(5) A, b = 10.120(10) A, c = 22.36(3) A, and Z = 4. The Co(II) ion is in a deformed octahedral environment on a 2-fold symmetry axis parallel to the crystallographic axis b. It is bonded to two threonine molecules in a bidentate fashion, via one oxygen from the carboxylate end and the alpha-amino nitrogen. A water molecule occupies the third independent site. The Co(II) ions are arranged in layers with intralayer and interlayer distances of 5.84 and 11.18 A, respectively. Magnetic measurements data reflect the molecular character of a compound with weak exchange interactions. EPR measurements in polycrystalline and single-crystal samples indicate a distorted axial symmetry around the Co(II) ion, as expected from the structural results. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the g tensor are determined. The measured principal g values (5.81, 4.56, and 2.23) reflect a high-spin Co(II) ion, as suggested by the type of ligands and the molecular symmetry. From the incomplete collapse of the hyperfine structure we estimate 0.25 < |J| < 1.2 cm(-1) between neighboring Co(II) ions within a layer, transmitted through H-bonds. A higher limit |J'| < 0.07 cm(-1) is estimated for the exchange interactions between Co(II) ions in neighboring layers. From a global fit of a spin Hamiltonian with spin (3)/(2) to magnetization and EPR data we obtain a zero field splitting delta approximately 231 cm(-1) between the two lowest doublet states. The results are discussed in terms of the molecular and electronic structure of the compound.
