A new series of cyanido-bridged {LnW} heterobinuclear complexes of formula [Ln(pyim)(i-PrOH)(HO)(μ-CN)W(CN)]·2HO [Ln = Gd (1), Tb (2), Dy (3), Ho (4), and Er (5); pyim = 2-(1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyridine) and i-PrOH = isopropyl alcohol] were synthesized by one-pot reaction between (NHBu)[W(CN)] and [Ln(pyim)] complexes (generated in situ by mixing the corresponding Ln ions and the pyim ligand). Compounds 1-5 are isomorphous and crystallize in the monoclinic system P2/n space group. Their crystal structure consists of binuclear units in which the octacyanotungstate(V) anion coordinates to the corresponding Ln ion through a single cyanide ligand. The tungsten(V) and lanthanide(III) ions are eight-coordinated, in distorted square antiprism (W) and distorted trigonal dodecahedron (Ln) geometries, respectively. The direct-current (dc) magnetic properties for 1-5 reveal the occurrence of weak antiferromagnetic interactions between W and Ln cation, with S, F, H, I, and I as ground terms for Gd, Tb, Dy Ho, and Er, respectively [J = -1.19(1) (1), -1.02(2) (2), -1.10(2) (3), -1.30(2) (4), and -1.50(3) cm (5), the spin Hamiltonian being defined as H = -J S·S]. The fit of the χT data of 2-4 points out a positive value for the energy gap between the M components (Δ). This feature is corroborated by their Q-band electron paramagnetic resonance spectra at low temperature, which clearly show M = 0 (2 and 4) and ±1/2 (3 and 5). Incipient frequency-dependent alternating-current magnetic susceptibility signals are observed for 3 and 5 under applied dc fields supporting the presence of slow magnetic relaxation behavior, the blocking temperatures being below 2.0 K. This new series of {LnW} heterobinuclear compounds provides more insights into the exchange magnetic interaction between 5d and 4f centers via the cyanide-bridge, for which scarce information is available to date.
