Abstract

A paramagnetic ligand 6bpyNO (2,2′-bipyridin-6-yl tert-butyl nitroxide) is a newcomer in the field of metal-radical hybrid magnetic materials. Complexes [CuII(6bpyNO)Cl2] and [NiII(6bpyNO)2](PF6)2 having highly planar chelate rings showed considerably strong ferromagnetic exchange couplings J/kB = 202 and 192 K, respectively, across the direct radical oxygen coordination bonds (the spin Hamiltonian is defined as -2JSi·Sj).
