The Ph4P+ salt of the tetrahedral complex [Co(SPh)(4)](2-), possessing an S = 3/2 ground state with an axial zero-field splitting of D = -70 cm(-1), displays single-molecule magnet behavior in the absence of an applied magnetic field. At very low temperatures, ac magnetic susceptibility data show the magnetic relaxation time, tau, to be temperature-independent, while above 2.5 K thermally activated Arrhenius behavior is apparent with U-eff 21(1) cm(-1) and tau(0) = 1.0(3) X 10(-7) s. Under an applied field of 1 kOe, tau more closely approximates Arrhenius behavior over the entire temperature range. Upon dilution of the complex within a matrix of the isomorphous compound (Ph4P)(2)[Zn(SPh)(4)], ac susceptibility data reveal the molecular nature of the slow magnetic relaxation and indicate that the quantum tunneling pathway observed at low temperatures is likely mediated by intermolecular dipolar interactions.

Isotopomeric Elucidation of the Mechanism of Temperature Sensitivity in 59Co NMR Molecular Thermometers

Tyler M. Ozvat, Anthony K. Rappe, Joseph M. Zadrozny

Summary: Understanding the temperature-dependent magnetic resonance properties is crucial for thermometry using magnetic resonance imaging. By employing a novel molecular design strategy involving deuteration, the study reveals the mechanistic origin of Co-59 chemical shift thermometry. Analysis of Co-59 NMR and Raman spectroscopy data shows the influence of deuteration on thermometry mechanisms.

Record Chemical-Shift Temperature Sensitivity in a Series of Trinuclear Cobalt Complexes

Summary: In this study, a new pathway to design spins with long-lived coherence and strong temperature sensitivity is introduced by mimicking the temperature sensitivity of an electron spin with a robust nuclear spin. The results show that spin-crossover phenomena can enable electron-spin-like temperature sensitivities in nuclear spins while maintaining robust coherence times at room temperature.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of solvent steric profile on the formation of linear or helical chains using a diphenyl-derivatized tetraoxolene ligand (H(2)Ph(2)dhbq). The helical chain exhibits temperature-dependent valence tautomerism, while the linear chain is more amenable to oxidative doping, leading to a significant increase in electrical conductivity.

Summary: Slowing magnetic relaxation via local environmental design is crucial for the development of next-generation spin-based technologies. By embedding a specific complex in solid-state matrices, the magnetic relaxation rate can be decreased by three orders of magnitude. These findings are important for studying magnetic systems that cannot be synthesized or do not have the same structure.

A reaction-coordinate perspective of magnetic relaxation

Cassidy E. Jackson, Ian P. Moseley, Roxanna Martinez, Siyoung Sung, Joseph M. Zadrozny

Summary: Understanding and utilizing the dynamic quantum properties of metal ions is crucial for next generation technologies, with magnetic relaxation being a key physical phenomenon that is often overlooked in undergraduate coursework. By introducing a new paradigm and utilizing reaction-coordinate diagrams, researchers can better understand the mechanisms of magnetic relaxation in metal complexes and how design choices impact relaxation times. This review highlights how principles from inorganic chemistry can also be applied to the study and manipulation of magnetic relaxation, pushing the boundaries of this field.
