Abstract

A heterobimetallic cyano-bridged 1D coordination polymer of the composition [Ni(baepn)(μ-NC)Fe(CN)3(NO)(μ-CN)]n·3H2O has been synthesized by the reaction of nickel(II) nitrate hexahydrate, baepn (baepn = N, N′-bis(2-aminoethyl)-1,3-propanediamine), and sodium nitroprusside dihydrate in a methanol–water mixture. The complex was characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic methods. The crystal structure was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It reveals cyano-bridged heterometallic chains consisting of alternating arrays of Ni(II) and Fe(II) atoms, both being embedded in distorted octahedral environments. Low-temperature susceptibility measurements show the presence of weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions between paramagnetic Ni(II) centers (J = −0.46 cm−1) through long diamagnetic [Fe(CN)5(NO)]2− bridges. Spin state of the iron atom was established by 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy.
