The trifluorido complex mer-[CrF3(py)3] (py = pyridine) reacts with 1 equiv. of [Ln(hfac)3(H2O)2] and depending on the solvent forms the tetranuclear clusters [Cr2Ln2(μ-F)4(μ-OH)2(py)4(hfac)6], 1Ln, and [Cr2Ln2(μ-F)4F2(py)6(hfac)6], 2Ln, in acetonitrile and 1,2-dichloroethane, respectively (Ln = Y, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, and Er; hfacH = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetone). Reaction with [Dy(hfac)3(H2O)2] in dichloromethane produces the dinuclear cluster [CrDy(μ-F)F(OH2)(py)3(hfac)4], 3Dy. All the clusters feature fluoride bridges between the chromium(III) and lanthanide(III) centres. Fits of susceptibility data for 1Gd and 2Gd reveal the fluoride-mediated chromium(III)–lanthanide(III) exchange interactions to be 0.43(5) cm−1 and 0.57(7) cm−1, respectively (in the convention). Heat capacity measurements on 2Gd reveal a moderate magneto-caloric effect (MCE) reaching −ΔSm(T) = 11.4 J kg−1 K−1 for ΔB0 = 9 T → 0 T at T = 4.1 K. Out-of-phase alternating-current susceptibility (χ′′) signals are observed for 1Dy, 2Dy and 2Tb, demonstrating slow relaxation of the magnetization.
的[Ln(hfac)3(H2O)2]反应,并根据溶剂的不同形成四核簇合物[Cr2Ln2(μ-F)4(μ-OH)2(py)4(hfac)6]、1Ln、和[Cr2Ln2(μ-F)4F2(py)6(hfac)6],2Ln,分别在乙腈和 1,2-二氯乙烷中(Ln = Y、Gd、Tb、Dy、Ho 和 Er;hfacH = 1,1,1,5,5,5-六氟乙酰丙酮)。在二氯甲烷中与[Dy(hfac)3(H2O)2]反应生成双核簇[CrDy(μ-F)F(OH2)(py)3(hfac)4],即 3Dy。所有团簇的铬(III)和镧(III)中心之间都有氟化桥。对 1Gd 和 2Gd 的电感数据进行拟合后发现,氟介导的铬(III)-镧(III)交换相互作用分别为 0.43(5) cm-1 和 0.57(7) cm-1(常规)。对 2Gd 的热容测量显示,在 ΔB0 = 9 T → 0 T 时,T = 4.1 K 的中等磁热效应 (MCE) 达到 -ΔSm(T) = 11.4 J kg-1 K-1。
