Syntheses, Crystal Structures, and Magnetic Properties of Three 1D Chain Metal–Nitroxide Complexes Bridged by ­Flexible Dicarboxylate Anions

Abstract

(2), and {[Zn(NIT4Py)(glu)(H 2 O)]·H 2 O} n (3) [NIT4Py = 2-(4Ј-pyridyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide, suc = succinate anion and glu = glutarate anion] were synthesized and structurally characterized. Single-crystal X-ray analyses indicate that the three complexes
