A magnetic isolated chain-based substituted cobalt-formate framework was obtained with isonicotine as a spacer. In the chain, canted antiferromagnetic interactions exist in between the Co(II) ions, and slow magnetic relaxation is detected at low temperature. For the block effects of the isonicotine ligands, the complex could be considered as a peculiar example of a weak ferromagnetic single-cha...

Coordination bonds are effective for constructing functional self-healing materials due to their tunable bond strength and metal-ion-induced functionalities. In this work, we incorporate a cobalt(II) triazole complex into a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix. The resulting polymers show solvatochromic behaviour as well as self-healing properties.

a novel complex of cadmium (ii) [cdl0.5(no3)(h2o)](1), l= n,n-bis (o-hydroxyacetophenone) ethylene diamine, have been synthesized as single crystal and nano size. compound 1 in nano size was obtained under sonochemical irradiation and has been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectroscopy, x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the gray single crystal of compound 1 has...

The synthesis and characterization of two-coordinate cobalt(ii) complexes CoAr'(2) (1) and Ar'CoN(SiMe(3))(2) (2) (Ar' = C(6)H(3)-2,6-(C(6)H(3)-2,6-(i)Pr(2))(2)) are reported. The magnetic data for 2 show that it has an unexpectedly high mu(eff) of 5.65 mu(B) whereas the bent complex 1 has a significantly lower moment.

In the structure of the title compound, [Co(C(10)H(5)F(4)O(2))(2)(C(5)H(5)N)(2)], cobalt(II) forms a complex with two 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(4-fluoro-phen-yl)butane-1,3-dionate anions and two pyridine mol-ecules in an octa-hedral coordination environment, where the two dionate ligands are in equatorial positions and the two pyridine mol-ecules in axial positions. The complex is located on a crystal...

Molecular electrocatalysis for oxygen reduction at a polarized water/1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) interface was studied, involving aqueous protons, ferrocene (Fc) in DCE and amphiphilic cobalt porphyrin catalysts adsorbed at the interface. The catalyst, (2,8,13,17-tetraethyl-3,7,12,18-tetramethyl-5-p-amino-phenylporphyrin) cobalt(II) (CoAP), functions like conventional cobalt porphyrins, activating...
