Abstract:
A one-dimensional coordination polymer of nickel(II), [(μN,S-NCS)2{Ni(ampy)}]n (ampy=1-(2-aminoethyl)pyrrolidine) has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single crystal analysis. Structure analysis reveals that each nickel(II) center is coordinated in a distorted octahedral fashion with four bridging thiocyanato ligands and one mesocyclic diamine ligand. The low temperature (300–18 K) magnetic measurement shows that the system is ferromagnetically coupled. The magnetic data are fitted to the de Neef equation, giving the parameters J=1.4 cm−1 and g=2.08.
