3D MnII coordination polymer with alternating azide/azide/formate/formate bridged chains: synthesis, structure and magnetic properties

Jiong-Peng Zhao, Bo-Wen Hu, Qian Yang, Xiao-Feng Zhang, Tong-Liang Hu and Xian-He Bu

A new 3D MnII coordination polymer, [Mn2(HCO2)( L)2(N3)·MeOH] ( 1) ( L = nicotinate N-oxide), was synthesized by a solvothermal reaction and characterized magnetically. Complex 1 is a typical antiferromagnet with alternating azide/azide/formate/formate bridges, exhibiting a new –J1J1J2J2– coupling sequence. This is the first complex to contain an azide, formate and another type of carboxylate ligand.
