Building Organic Magnets from Stable Organic Free Radicals: A Metal Ion Binding Study

在有机动力学项目的支持下。Jackson和Kahr将组装并表征一系列三甲基及其金属离子络合物。双基密码子也将被合成，以隔离在扩展材料中负责磁顺序的成对电子相互作用。他们的合作研究将解决与磁耦合有关的结构和理论特征，并将探索具有远程结构的分子固体的设计要求。简单有机顺磁体在过去的30年里得到了深入的研究，应用现有的理论可以充分地分析其磁性特性。然而，集体磁性的起源，如共同铁磁性，还不完全清楚。Drs。Jackson和Kahr设计了一种新的有机铁磁材料的合成方法，这种材料很可能具有新的磁性。在完成这项研究后可能产生的新材料对于开发改进的信息存储和检索系统具有潜在的应用。

With support from the Organic Dynamics Program, Drs. Jackson and Kahr will assemble and characterize a series of triarymethyls and their metal ion complexes. Diradical cryptands will also be synthesized to isolate the pairwise electronic interactions that are responsible for magnetic order in the extended materials. Their collaborative study will address structural and theoretical features that relate to magnetic coupling and will probe the requirements for design of molecular solids with long-range structure. %%% Simple organic paramagnets have been thoroughly studied during the past 30 years, and their magnetic characteristics can be analyzed adequately via application of current theory. However, the origins of collective magnetic properties, such as common ferromagnetism, are incompletely understood. Drs. Jackson and Kahr have designed approaches to the synthesis of new organic ferromagnetic materials that are likely to possess novel magnetic properties. The new materials that are likely to result upon completion of this research have potential application for the development of improved information storage and retrieval systems.
