Abstract:
We report the water adsorption/desorption behavior and dynamic magnetic properties of the Pt-Cl chain complex [{[Pt(en)2 ][PtCl2 (en)2 ]}3 ][{(MnCl5 )Cl3 }2 ] ⋅ 12H2 O (1). Upon heating 1 in a vacuum, we obtained the dehydrated form [{[Pt(en)2 ][PtCl2 (en)2 ]}3 ][{(MnCl5 )Cl3 }2 ] (1DH). The framework structures of 1 and 1DH are identical, and both complexes underwent slow magnetic relaxation. However, the magnetic relaxation times for 1DH were shorter than those for 1, meaning that the dynamic magnetic properties were controlled upon water vapor adsorption/desorption. From detailed analyses of the dynamic magnetic behavior, a phonon-bottleneck effect contributes to the magnetic relaxation processes. We discuss the mechanism for the changes in the magnetic relaxation processes upon dehydration in terms of the heat capacity and thermal conductivity.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
Atomic Nuclei: Types of Nuclear Relaxation
In spin–lattice or longitudinal relaxation, the excited spins exchange energy with the surrounding lattice as they return to the lower energy level. Among several mechanisms that contribute to spin–lattice relaxation, magnetic dipolar interactions are significant. Here, the excited nucleus transfers...
