Abstract
The synthesis, spectroscopic, and magnetic characterization of three magnetic clusters derived from tris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1yl)borate iron(III) tricyanide are described. The cyanide-bridged MII (MII = Mn, Co, Ni) and FeIII centers exhibit antiferromagnetic (MnII and CoII) and ferromagnetic (NiII) exchange affording S = 4, 2, and 3 ground states, respectively; ac susceptibility measurements suggest that the cobalt and nickel derivatives exhibit incipient single-molecule magnetic behavior below 2 K.
