We have synthesized a new spin-1/2 antiferromagnet, Y2Cu7(TeO3)6Cl6(OH)2, via a traditional hydrothermal method. This compound crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system with space groupP1̅. The magnetic ions constitute a two-dimensional layered lattice with a novel topological structure in which the Cu4clusters make up distorted diamond chains along theaaxis and these chains are connected by the Cu3trimers. The magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements show that the compound is antiferromagnetically ordered atTN= 4.1 K. This antiferromagnetic ordering is further supported by electron spin resonance (ESR) data. The magnetization curve presents a field-induced metamagnetic transition at 0.2 T, followed by a magnetization plateau within a wide magnetic field range from 7 T to at least 55 T, which corresponds to 3/7 of the saturated magnetization withg= 2.15 obtained from ESR. The possible mechanism for the magnetization plateau is discussed.
