Abstract

A series of tricyanoiron(III) complexes with the general formula mer-[Fe^III(5-Xsap)(CN)₃]^2- (X = H, Me, MeO, Cl or Br, sapH₂ = N-salicylidene-o-aminophenol) have been synthesized. These complexes were characterized by IR, ESI-MS, UV/Vis, elemental analysis and magnetic measurements. The structures of (PPh₄)₂[Fe ^III(sap)(CN)₃] and (PPh₄)₂[Fe ^III(5-Mesap)(CN)₃] have been determined by X-ray crystallography. These low-spin d ⁵ tricyanoiron(III) complexes are potential building blocks for the construction of molecule-based magnets.
