A dichromium(II,II) compound with a strong antiferromagnetic coupling but little or no Cr-Cr bonding. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • The [Cr2(azin)4Cl2]2- ion has been made and structurally characterized. Despite the long Cr-Cr distance (2.688(2) ), there is strong coupling of all electron spins, presumably by superexchange via the bridging azin ligands (azin = anion of 7-azaindole).
