| Abstract | The magnetic anisotropy of two pentacoordinate trigonal bipyramidal (C3v symmetry) Co(II) complexes, [Co(Me6tren)Cl]ClO4 (1) and [Co(Me6tren)Br]Br (2), was investigated and analysed by magnetic studies, high field multifrequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and ab initio calculations. Negative D parameters expressing an Ising-type anisotropy (easy axis of magnetization) were found experimentally for both complexes. Calculations led to D values very close to the experimental ones, which allows a robust rationalisation of the magnetic anisotropy in these complexes. The wavefunctions of the ground and the first four excited states reveal that they are strongly multideterminantal i.e. linear combinations of several determinants. The most important contribution to the spin orbit coupling between the ground and lowest excited states stabilizes the largest MS = ±3/2 components of the S = 3/2 state and therefore brings a large negative contribution to D. The analysis of the difference between the magnitudes of the anisotropy of the two complexes led to the conclusion that a large Ising anisotropy is preferred when weak σ-donating ligands are in the equatorial plane and strong π-donating ones are in axial positions; thus providing an efficient tool to chemists to predict the magnetic anisotropy in these types of complexes. The investigation of the magnetic behaviour of a single crystal of 1 by micro-SQUID shows, as expected, the presence of an easy axis of magnetization. The magnetic behaviour is consistent with quantum tunnelling of the magnetization mediated by intermolecular three-dimensional antiferromagnetic exchange interactions. Upon dilution of the Co(II) molecules in the isostructural Zn(II) compound, a blocking of the magnetization below 2 K is demonstrated; it results in an opening of the magnetization hysteresis loop in zero applied magnetic field. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
