Two new helical metal complexes were synthesized. Magnetic studies reveal both exhibit ferrimagnetism, with a magnetic transition temperature of 3 K.

Area of Science:

  • Coordination Chemistry
  • Materials Science
  • Magnetism

Background:

  • One-dimensional coordination polymers offer unique magnetic and electronic properties.
  • Chiral ligands can induce specific structural and magnetic behaviors in metal complexes.
