Full textBinaphthyl-derived ligands containing P"=" O donor groups were employed for the rational synthesis of multi-properties coordination compounds with M〖(hfac)〗_3 units. The chiral bisphosphine oxide L acted as a chelate ligand giving monomeric racemic species of formula [〖{Ln(hfac)_3 L}〗_3] (Ln= Eu,Dy and Yb). These complexes were structurally characterized and their physical properties were studied in solid state. The compound [〖{Eu(hfac)_3 L}〗_3] exhibited metal-centred luminescence. Conversely, the ligand L was not able to sensitise luminescence emission for [〖{Dy(hfac)_3 L}〗_3]. However, the latter displayed field-induced SMM behaviour. The complex [〖{Yb(hfac)_3 L}〗_3] was an example of a chiral luminescent field-induced SMM. For both Dy(III)- and Yb(III)-based species, the magnetization relaxed via a similar Raman process under the effect of an external magnetic field. All these compounds sublimated when heated at reduced pressure. Subsequently, the coordination chemistry of the enantiopure binaphthyl-derived bisphosphate ligands (S)/(R)-L^n (n=1,3) and (S,S,S)/(R,R,R)-L^n (n=2,4) was studied. Reaction of these ligands with equimolar quantities of the metal precursors [M(hfac)_3 (H_2 O)_2] (M=Y,Eu,Dy and Yb) yielded enantiopure 1D-coordiantion polymers. With ligands (S)/(R)-L^n (n=1,3), two different polymorphic species could be crystallised by changing reaction conditions and nature of the metal ion. The Dy(III)-based compounds manifested field-induced SMM behaviour and luminescence emission. Magneto-optical correlation and results from ab initio calculations are presented. The complex 〖[Dy(hfac)_3 {(S)-L^1}]〗_n showed multiple contributions of the magnetization relaxation despite the presence of a single crystallographic Dy(III) centre. Solubilization of the coordination polymers 〖[M(hfac)_3 {(S)/(R)-L^1}]〗_n caused a structural reorganization to monomeric species of formula [M(hfac)_3 {(S)/(R)-L^1}]. This was demonstrated by NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. Similarly to the solid state, complex [Dy(hfac)_3 {(S)-L^1}] exhibited a multi-contribution field-induced SMM behaviour. The processes governing the magnetization relaxation of 〖[Dy(hfac)_3 {(S,S,S)-L^2}]〗_n and 〖[Dy〖(hfac)〗_3 {(S)-L^3 }]〗_n were further investigated by applying a strategy of magnetic dilution and isotopic enrichment with (_ ^163)Dy(III) (I=1⁄2) and (_ ^164)Dy(III) (I=0). Despite the minimisation of the dipolar interactions and the absence of nuclear spin, a strong field dependence of the magnetization was still observed. The ligands (S)/(R)-L^n (n=1,3) and (S,S,S)/(R,R,R)-L^n (n=2,4) efficiently sensitised the luminescence of the Eu(III)-based species. Their enantiopure nature promoted CPL emission in both solution and solid state. Finally, field-induced SMM behaviour and CPL emission were observed in the same compound by employing Yb(III) centres. The use of the functionalized TTF-based ligand L^5 and chiral Yb〖{(R)/(S)"-" facam}〗_3 units gave the enantiopure pair of dimers 〖[Yb〖{(R)/(S)"-" facam}〗_3 (L^5)]〗_2. The TTF fragment conferred redox activity. The application of a moderate static field revealed slow relaxation of the magnetization. Direct excitation of the ILCT states of L^5 sensitised the metal-centred luminescence. Moreover, both solution and solid state NIR-CPL emission were detected. The complex 〖[Yb〖{(R)/(S)"-" facam}〗_3 (L^5)]〗_2 was a redox chiral filed-induced SMM displaying CPL emission. Together with the Yb(III)-based complexes coordinated by the ligands (S)/(R)-L^n (n=1,3) and (S,S,S)/(R,R,R)-L^n (n=2,4), these are the first documented solid state NIR-CPL emissive examples for molecular complexes

Single molecule magnets (SMMs) are molecules of mesoscopic scale which exhibit quantum properties. Its quantum effects are used to describe the behavior of SMMs at the smallest scales. These quantum properties could also be used to reveal possible applications of SMMs to high-density information storage, molecular spintronics, and quantum information science. Thus SMMs are of interest to physicists, chemists, and engineers. Recently, electron transport via individual SMMs was achieved in experiments. Electron transport is obviously affected by the magnetic properties of the SMM, thus one can examine magnetic properties of an SMM indirectly by measuring electron transport via the SMM. In this thesis, two types of SMMs, Eu2(C8H8)3 and Ni9Te6(PEt3)8, are investigated theoretically by simulating their electron transport properties. An extended metal atom chain (EMAC) consists of a string of metallic atoms with organic ligands surrounding the string. EMACs are an important research field for nanoelectronics. Homometallic iron-based EMACs are especially attractive due to the high spin and large magnetic anisotropy of iron(II). If a molecule has magnetic anisotropy, its magnetic properties change with the direction of its magnetic moment. We explore how iron atoms interact with each other in the EMACs [Fe2(mes)2(dpa)2] and [Fe4(tpda)3Cl2]. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to SMMs, electron transport experiments via SMMs and an approximation method, density functional theory (DFT). DFT is a method to approximate electronic structure and magnetic properties of various many-body systems. Chapter 2 investigates theoretical electron transport via Eu2(C8H8)3. Eu2(C8H8)3 changes its type of magnetic anisotropy when it obtains an extra electron, which is different from most SMMs. If the Eu2(C8H8)3 is short of an extra electron, its magnetization direction is in-plane, that is, its magnetic energy is lowest when its magnetic moment is along any direction in a specific plane. If an extra electron is captured by Eu2(C8H8)3, its magnetization direction becomes out-of-plane, and its lowest energy is obtained when its magnetic moment is along the direction normal to the specific plane. The unique magnetic properties lead to blockade effects at low bias: the current through this molecule is completely suppressed until the bias voltage exceeds a certain value. The bias voltage on a molecule equals the electrical potential difference between two ends of the molecule. Chapter 3 investigates theoretical electron transport via Ni9Te6(PEt3)8. Magnetic anisotropy of Ni9Te6(PEt3)8 is cubic symmetric, and its symmetry is higher than most SMMs. With appropriate magnetic anisotropy parameters, in the presence of an external magnetic field, uncommon phenomena are observed. These phenomena include (1) current is completely suppressed when bias is low; (2) current via SMM decreases while bias on SMM increases; (3) there are discontinuous lines in the figures that describe electrical conductance of current. Chapter 4 examines the iron atoms’ interaction strength in both [Fe2(mes)2(dpa)2] and [Fe4(tpda)3Cl2]. Reasonable spin Hamiltonians are used to describe the energy of EMACs. Considering all possible directions of the spins of iron atoms in two EMACs, we calculate the energy of every possible spin configuration using DFT. The energy of each spin configuration can be expressed as an equation containing one or more coupling constants. We apply the least-squares fitting method to obtain the values of the coupling constants in the spin Hamiltonians.

Full textIn the first part of this thesis, we studied the magnetic anisotropy of pentacoordinated mononuclear Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes possessing geometries from square pyramid to trigonal bipyramid. We have shown that, for a given geometry, the metal ion nature has an important influence on the magnetic anisotropy.Then, we studied for a given metal ion the effect of geometry on its magnetic anisotropy. In the case of a trigonal bipyramidal geometry (C3v symmetry), we showed that Co(II) has an Ising type anisotropy (easy axis of magnetization) and thus a blocking of magnetization that leads to an opening of a hysteresis cycle at low temperature. This type of complexes can be used for storing data albeit at low temperature.In the second part of the work, we studied the magnetic properties of binuclear complexes. A binuclear Co(II) complex bridged by two Cl- has a weak ferromagnetic coupling and a blocking of its magnetization.Finally, another aspect of this work was to design binuclear complexes, where two anisotropic ions having each one an easy axis of magnetization, are weakly antiferromagnetically coupled. To do this, we have studied compounds with cryptand ligands where the geometry around the Co (II) is trigonal bipyramid. We found that with a Cl- or Br- bridging ligand, the exchange interaction is much more important than the local anisotropy of Co(II) ions leading to a magnetic behavior where the ions lose their local character. This work opens up prospects for synthesizing the same type of complex but with larger bridges to decrease the intensity of the antiferromagnetic coupling

A pesar de la extensa biblioteca de compuestos versátiles que exhiben estos comportamientos, actualmente, se siguen estudiando para comprender sus propiedades fundamentales. En esta tesis contribuimos en desvelar aspectos cruciales relacionadas con su fundamento magnético.

Full textThis dissertation describes the syntheses of 3d-4f-metal complexes starting from preformed compounds of Mn, Fe and Co, lanthanide salts and organic ligands and also the investigation of their structures and properties. 41 new polynuclear heterometallic metal complexes were synthesised in the course of this work with different interesting properties. The structures of all obtained compounds have been confirmed using X-ray diffraction. The magnetic properties of 22 complexes were studied, of which four show frequency dependent out-of-phase signals as expected for SMMs. The catalytic activity of calcinated {Mn4Dy6Li2} was investigated and proved effective for the oxidation of CO. It was established, that the use of precursors leads to new families of compounds. Moreover the study of isostructural compounds across the lanthanide series showed 1) that the incorporation of 4f ions introduces magnetic anisotropy and 2) DyIII is usually the best candidate for targeting 3d-4f-SMMs

Full textThe study of actinide chemistry is not only essential for the development of nuclear fuel, nuclear fuel reprocessing or environmental clean up, but also for the understanding of fundamental actinide/ligand interactions and multiple bounding. The magnetic properties of polynuclear actinide molecules are of significant interest to investigate the magnetic communication between the metallic centres. Furthermore, they are highly promising for the design of molecular magnets. Uranium undergoes redox reactions due to a wide range of available oxidation states and easily forms polynuclear assemblies. However, only a few controlled synthetic routes towards these polynuclear uranium assemblies are described in the literature. In this context, the first part of this work was dedicated to the synthesis of oxo/hydroxo uranium clusters from the controlled hydrolysis of tetravalent uranium in the presence of an environmentally relevant ligand. This led to the synthesis of clusters with novel topologies, for which size could be varied as a function of the reaction conditions employed. However, the obtained clusters do not behave as SMM. In order to gain a stronger interaction between metallic centres, the cation-cation interaction was used to rationally design polynuclear uranyl(V) complexes. The isolation of uranyl(V) complexes had been limited in the past by its disproportionation, however, a fine tuning of the organic ligand and reaction conditions finally allowed to stabilise uranyl(V). We used stable uranyl(V) units as building block to form heteronuclear complexes with 3d and 4f metals with polymeric or discrete structures. The study of the magnetic properties of the uranium polynuclear assemblies was carried out and revealed single molecule or chain magnet behaviours with high energy barriers. The uranyl(V) unit was also used as a structural model for the more radioactive neptunium element, allowing the isolation of an isostructural trinuclear neptunyl(V) assembly in similar reaction conditions. Finally, the use of a nitride ligand as a bridging unit, allowing the formation of uranium-ligand multiple bonds, was explored to build novel di-uranium complexes supported by siloxy ligands. Nitride molecules containing unprecedented uranium in the +III oxidation state were isolated and characterised

Full textThe Ph.D. project was a joint agreement between two universities: Université de Rennes 1 in France and Università di Firenze in Italy. The project aimed to shed light on the rationalization of the inter- and intramolecular properties of novel lanthanide-based Single Molecule Magnets, SMMs, (“molecular part”) and their evolution once adsorbed on surface (“surface part”). Both aspects are examined within a theoretical and computational framework, with different multi-level techniques ranging from periodic Density Functional Theory (pDFT) to post-Hartree-Focks approaches, depending on the experimental observable of interest. SMMs are, indeed, at the cutting-edge in the design of novel magnetic materials in surface science (as spintronics or memory storage devices), but for their exploitation a deep understanding of their electronic and magnetic properties is needed

Full textThis thesis describes the fully regioselective synthesis of symmetric all-endo tetra-alkoxy-functionalized phthalocyanines and their metal ion complexes accompanied by induction of columnar mesophases in convenient temperature ranges at moderate substituent sizes, as well as their use in organic diodes and the study of their magnetic properties. The synthetic approach to follow is lithium-induced macrocyclization of 3-(2-alkylalkoxy)-phthalonitriles prior to transition meatl ion insertion. Symmetrization of the aliphatic chains in the 3-alkoxy-phthalonitrile precursor from 2-butylocytyl to 2-pentylheptyl maintains both the regioisomeric mixture during the cyclo-tetramerization and to a somewhat greater tendency to crystallization. The combination of attainable clearing temperatures with room temperature columnar stacking and with a relatively high content of conjugated core within the molecular mass makes the first two series of materials, i.e. MPc(OCH2CHBuHex)4, and MPc(OCH2CHPent2)4, potentially useful as uniformly orientable charge transposters in organic electronic devices. We establish that these tetra-α-alkoxy substituted phthalocyanine materials, as exemplified with H2Pc(OCH2CHBuHex)4, NiPc(OCH2CHBuHex)4 and CuPc(OCH2CHBuHex)4, lead to original device performances when applied as an active organic layer in simple ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PC/Al diode structures. A pronounced current rectification of the diodes is obtained despite the preponderantly planar alignment of the columns in the films. The highly soluble tetra-α-alkoxy-substituted Pc ligand, when combined with MnIII and DyIII, gives rise to original mononuclear single molecule magnets. Remarkably, the C4h-symmetric isomer of the octa-alkoxy double decker complex is formed selectively due of presence of the bulky substituents on both Pc rings

Full textThe beginning of the 1990’s marked the discovery of Single-Molecule Magnets (SMMs), which created the hope tostore information on a single molecule due to their magnetic bistability. However, it is becoming of strategicimportance to dedicate a part of our research to their organization in order to achieve devices for the potentialapplication. During this thesis work, our strategy was to exploit coordination chemistry to organize these moleculesin a controlled way by using different types of linkers.Chapter I covers theoretical backgrounds for this research project. In this chapter, Single-Molecule Magnets(SMMs), Single-Chain Magnets (SCMs), Spin Crossover (SC) and Electron Transfer (ET) systems are described anddiscussed. Chapter II contains relevant literature on SMM-based coordination networks and photoactive cyanidobasedbimetallic systems. Chapter III presents the organization of [Mn4] SMMs in 1D and 2D networks withdiamagnetic linkers (chlorido ions) or paramagnetic linkers containing NiII, MnII, and CuII ions. The extensivephysical studies (X-ray crystallography, magnetic and heat capacity measurements, and theoretical analysis) on thesenetworks demonstrated new magnetic behavior and enhanced energy barrier compared to the isolated [Mn4] SMMs.In Chapter IV, we prepared new switchable linkers based on the cyanido-bridged Fe/Co unit, to realizephotomagnetic networks of SMMs. A rational building-block approach has been used to design these dinuclearFe/Co complexes. Extensive spectroscopic, electrochemical and magnetic characterizations have been performed tounambiguously reveal in one of the synthesized complexes the presence of a spin crossover induced by temperaturein the solid-state, and an intramolecular electron transfer assisted by controlled protonation in solution, bothaccompanied by optical and magnetic changes. For the first time, this new complex shows two distinct switchingprocesses depending on its physical state and external stimuli

Chapter II is dedicated to the functionalization of [Mn12]-based SMMs towards hybrid liquid crystalline systems via two different approaches: (a) the functionalization of peripheral ligands with strongly lipophilic groups (long alkyl chains), or (b) the grafting of mesogenic promoters through flexible aliphatic spacers. Chapters III – V are focused on cyanido-bridged molecular {Fe2Co2} squares that exhibit thermally or photo-induced electron transfer. Thus, in Chapter III, the possibility to modulate the electron transfer properties in {Fe2Co2} molecular squares via the use of different counter-anion is discussed. The functionalization with long aliphatic chains and its influence over the properties of {Fe2Co2} molecular squares in solid state and solutions are discussed in Chapter IV. Finally, the effect of the ligand functionalization with strongly electron density donating groups (methoxy) over the electron transfer properties of {Fe2Co2} molecular squares is investigated in Chapter V

Full textOver the last few decades, lanthanides have been highlighted in high technology. These elements are used in strategic applications such as optical glasses and lasers, telecommunications, lighting and screens, magnetic materials, hard drive, security inks and counterfeit labels, catalysis, biosciences and medicine…This progress makes the coordination chemistry of 4f elements a mature and attractive field of research with almost unlimited perspectives which brings a new perception, a new area to coordination chemistry. The quest for new materials to improve the character provided by the 4f elements is steadily intensifying. In this context, the precise understanding of the structure-property relationship takes an important place, since this latter derives the properties. Consequently, it is still necessary to design new structures to expand the available database and thus improve knowledge and then promote applications. The present work is part of this idea to provide more information on the structure-properties relationship of lanthanide complexes. Indeed, during this thesis different original nuclear systems were developed and we were particularly interested in the description and understanding of the magnetic and luminescence properties. Molecular entities were constructed with β-diketone ligands. The latter offer different modes of coordination that have allowed the design of new families of lanthanide complexes. According to synthesis conditions, the nuclearity of the complexes is controlled from [Ln1] to [Ln9]. By doping the complexes with high nuclearity we were able to exacerbate the luminescence properties of the compounds studied. In regards to magnetism, the dinuclear, trinuclear and tetranuclear structures exhibit a single molecule magnet (SMM) behavior and some are magnet molecules with a toroidal moment. Other such complexes can also behave as bi-functional materials, combining SMM and luminescent property. Thus the study of the spectroscopic and magnetic character of these entities enabled us to rationalize the physical properties with respect to the structure, which is a great advantage in the field of coordination of the lanthanides

Full textSingle-molecule-magnet (SMM) has attracted increasing attention in recent years due to their appealing potential for high-density storage devices. Much effort has been made to improve the magnetic performance through flexible coordination chemistry strategy.In this thesis, the work is organized in two main parts. The first part is constituted of chapter 2 and chapter 3, primarily focus on the Ln-Radical families aiming at designing zero-dimensional and one-dimensional single-molecule-magnet (SMM). The second part contains chapter 4 and chapter 5, in which the ligands are replaced by diamagnetic ones for the purpose of designing the multifunctional materials.In the first part, nine TEMPO-R (R represents the substituent) radicals are employed to construct zero-dimensional and one-dimensional complexes. These kinds of compounds were prepared by reactions in the dichloromethane/n-heptane co-solvents between the precursor [Ln(hfac)3(H2O)2] and TEMPO radicals. Subsequently their molecular structure as well as magnetic properties have been characterized and described. In chapter 2, four radicals (TEMPO-OCH3, TEMPO-NH2 TEMPO-Acetamido and TEMPO-OCH2CCH) are used to synthesize monometallic or dimetallic complexes, among which three are successful to construct the SMM. For the special case of TEMPO-OCH3 a rare light lanthanide ions (CeIII, PrIII and NdIII) SMM behavior is reported. The PrIII derivative is the first PrIII-based SMM ever reported. In chapter 3, the target is to design SMM in one dimension by using another five radicals: TEMPO-Methacrylate, TEMPO-OCOPh, TEMPO-oxo, TEMPO-OH and TEMPO-CN. Among all the chains, [Pr(hfac)3(H2O)(TEMPO-OH)]n (17), [Dy(hfac)3-TEMPO-OH)]n (18) and [Tb(hfac)3(TEMPO-CN)]n (22) are identified as chains of SMM. 22 exhibits the slowest magnetic relaxation among all the 4f-2p SMMs obtained in this thesis, with a small opening of magnetic hysteresis. Its analogue of [Gd(hfac)3(TEMPO-CN)]n (23) even exhibits one of the largest exchange values in Gd-2p compounds. Last a very rare example of bidimensional 4f-2p network of formula [(Ce(hfac)3)3(Oxo-TEMPO)4]n (15) is obtained.In chapter 4, the salt of a photo-switchable carboxylic ligand was reacted with LnIII ions to afford a chain-like arrangement of dinuclear complexes of formula [Ln(AZO)3(DMSO)(H2O)]2•4DMSO. Photo-sensitivity of the ligand under the irradiation of UV has been tested together with magnetic measurements in solution. In chapter 5, a Metal-Organic-Framework (MOF) (28) has been designed and characterized. Ln-Ln ferromagnetic interaction has been observed and diamagnetic doping highlight that, contrary to what observed on [Ln(AZO)3(DMSO)(H2O)]2•4DMSO, this interaction promote SMM behavior in a so-called MOF-SMM

Full textIn this thesis, we tried to develop hybrid magnetic material chemistry in order to get soft systems that can be easy-processable. This work deals with functionalization of the organic part of interesting molecule-based magnetic materials by groups known to induce liquid crystal phase or to increase the solubility. We achieved the rational functionalization of molecule-based magnetic materials, like (i) Single-Molecule Magnets (SMM), (ii) Spin Crossover (SC), and (iii) Electron Transfer (ET) systems, towards more soluble systems and liquid crystal phases.Chapter I contains general information about three important classes of magnetic complexes: SMMs, SC and ET systems. In order to illustrate the motivation of our work, a bibliographic study about hybrid magnetic materials is then presented. Rational ligand functionalization of SMMs and SC systems towards liquid crystalline phases are discussed in Chapter II and III, respectively. New functionalized Mn12 complexes, FeII/triazole-based and [FeII(LN2O2)(LN)2] systems were obtained. The conservation of magnetic properties after ligand functionalization was confirmed, but unfortunately, these new compounds do not show mesomorphic behaviour below the decomposition temperature. The Chapter IV is focused on ligand functionalization of ET complexes. Alkyl functionalization of the ligand provides a good solubility to these complexes, and the thermally-induced switchable behaviour observed in solid state has been successfully transferred to dilute solutions

Full textDeveloping efficient methods to process molecular magnetic materials remains a considerable challenge and constitutes one of the critical steps toward possible applications. In this scope, the development magnetic hybrids featuring liquid crystal properties or improved solubility appears as a promising approach. This thesis work aimed to design, synthetize and characterize new hybridmaterials based on the single-molecule magnets (SMMs), spin crossover (SCO) and electrontransfer (ET) complexes. Chapter I contains general information and theoretical concepts on these three classes of magnetic complexes (SMMs, SCO and ET complexes), followed by a bibliographicsurvey on hybrid magnetic materials. Chapter II, rational is focused on the functionalization ofMn12-based SMM towards liquid crystalline phases. In Chapter III, a series of pyridylbenzohydrazone-based Fe(II) SCO complexes is investigated in both crystalline and soft matter phase. Chapter IV is dedicated to the study of cyanido-bridged {Fe2M2} molecular squares(M = Co(II), Ni(II)), which are known to exhibit SMM and thermally- or photo induced ET,respectively with Co(II) and Ni(II). In these three experimental chapters, the influence of ligand functionalization on self-organization, thermal and magnetic properties of the resulting materials is discussed in detail

Full textThis manuscript presents the experimental study of structural and physical properties of a spin chain compounds Sr4-xCaxCoMn2O9, belonging to the large oxides family A1+XA'XB1-XO3. In this series, the 1D chains are made up of the octahedra MnO6 (Mn4+) and trigonal prisms CoO6 (Co2+) connected by the faces, and distributed over a triangular lattice with an antiferromagnetic coupling between them. These chains exhibit a strong Ising-type magnetic anisotropy, originating from the cation Co2+ (HS, 3d7, S = 3/2). First of all, the structural study of these chains reveals that they can be immcommensurate, due to a change in the degree of oxidation of cobalt depending on the synthesis conditions. Then, we were interested in the study of the two compounds Sr4CoMn2O9 (x=0) and Sr2Ca2CoMn2O9 (x=2). The x=0 compound showed the absence of long-range magnetic ordering (LRO) and dynamic spin relaxation responses, typical of Single-Ion Magnet (SIM) and Single-Chain Magnet (SCM), of which the amplitude of their characteristic peaks depends on the (in)commensurability. On the other hand, in x = 2, only the SIM response was observed at low temperature, and which coexists with the LRO at TN ~ 28 K. The neutron diffraction data show that this LRO is compatible with a partially disordered antiferromagnetic state (PDA). A particular pre-transitional regime was also observed between TN and T* (~ 32.5 K), which was considered to be a precursor effect of LRO. Furthermore, a magneto-electric (ME) coupling has also been demonstrated within this compound. The mechanism of this ME coupling has been discussed as a result of exchange-striction phenomenon. Finally, we studied the magnetic anisotropy in oriented samples, whose grain morphology was optimized by different heat treatments

Full textLanthanide ions have been used successfully in the synthesis of single molecule magnets for more than a decade. This particular class of molecules shows slow relaxation of their magnetization from purely molecular origin. This property come mainly from the strong single ion anisotropy of these ions, and from their high magnetic moment. In the case of complexes with more than one spin carrier (3d, 4f metal or organic radical), coupling interactions can arise. These are called magnetic exchange. In this framework, ab initio calculations are a useful tool for magneto-structural correlations

Full textThe exponential growth of technological demands for information storage capacity is at the origin of the nanosciences and the development of the molecular electronics. Since more than 40 years, the main objective in this field of research is mainly to store as fast as possible more information in a smaller volume. Nowadays, chemists know how to create molecules with remarkable properties, such as Single–Molecule Magnets (SMMs) and Single–Chain Magnets (SCMs), which show magnetic bistability at low temperature (T < 10 K) providing a memory effect. Therefore, the design of novel materials with original physical properties, based on molecular magnetic objects, became the focus of many researches around the world. Following this approach, the design of SMM linked by active bridges that can switch between two magnetic states under external stimuli (temperature, pressure, light...), should favor additional properties and allow an external control (by irradiation) of the magnetic properties of the final SMM-based materials. The goal of this thesis is to organize SMMs by assembling them with two types of linkers: electron-transfer building blocks (Na2[Fe(CN)5NO]) and spin-crossover complexes ([Fe(LN5)(CN)2] and [Fe(LN3O2)(CN)2]). Three new materials obtained from the organization of [MnIII(BS)]+ complexes with the [Fe(CN)5NO]2- building-block, showed no significant photoactivity unlike the Na2[Fe(CN)5NO] precursor. Nevertheless, one of these organized systems exhibits Single-Molecule Magnet behaviour. The employed strategy to link [MnIII(BS)]+ units with photomagnetic [Fe(LN5)(CN)2] and [Fe(LN3O2)(CN)2] spin-crossover complexes, leads to nine new interesting compounds. The most significant novelty from a structural point of view is the various topologies of compounds obtained from molecular complexes to one-dimensional architectures with different arrangements. All compounds exhibit interesting magnetic properties. For example, one of the unidimensional networks shows an antiferromagnetic order followed by a slow relaxation of the magnetization that has been observed for the first time in a canted system. On the other hand, magnetic investigations under light irradiation have revealed remarkable photoinduced properties in the case of five systems based on FeII units in their low spin state. In conclusion, the synthetic strategy used in this thesis has been experimentally validated and opens new perspectives for future photomagnetic SMM and SCM systems

Full textAluminum-based organic semiconductors (OSCs) were systematically synthesized and studied by photophysical and electrochemical methods to identify a relationship between their chemical structure and electronic properties, using Alq3 as benchmark. Experimental HOMO and LUMO were compared to those computed. In addition, newly developed methods were implemented to generate morphologies and calculate charge carrier mobilities. The hole mobility of Al(Op)3 was measured in thin film transistors: 0.6-2.1×10−6 cm2V−1s−1. By photoemission spectroscopy techniques, the Co/Al(Op)3 hybrid interface was probed. Two hybrid interface states (HISs) were unraveled; the SP (spin polarization) of HIS1 is 8% higher than bare cobalt, whereas the SP of HIS2 is 4% lowered. At last, phenalenyl-based dysprosium SMMs (single-molecule magnet) were investigated. [Dy(Op)2Cl(HOp)(EtOH)] showed an energy gap of 43.8K and a quantum relaxation time of 5x10-4s

Full textThis thesis mainly aims to decorate phthalocyanines with supramolecular recognition groups for inducing their self-assembly for the first time with these robust chromophores mimicking the natural chlorosomal bacteriochlorophylls. Meanwhile, this thesis is also dedicated to the synthetic methodology of bulky lanthanide porphyrin phthalocyanine triple-decker complexes. The first part provides some basic concepts and some delicate examples in biomimetics and molecular self-assembly, then biomimetic bacteriochlorophyll c, d, e self-assembles were simply reviewed, followed by the introduction on the synthesis, regioisomer separation of phthalocyanines and phthalocyanine-sensitized solar cells. The second part presents a series of light-harvesting antennas, namely self-assembling acyphthalocyanines, with carbonyl groups as recognition motifs, a central zinc atom and various solubilizing alkyl chains, which could self-assemble in the same way as the natural bacteriochlorophylls. These assemblies were characterized by UV-Vis, Variable-temperature UV-Vis and 1H-NMR spectra. The third part of this thesis focuses on the electrochemical and magnetic properties of bulky lanthanide porphyrin phthalocyanine triple-decker complexes synthesized by microwave-mediated, therein, the initial site of oxidation/reduction on this type of triple-decker molecules was firstly assigned by combining the thin-layer spectroelectrochemistry and the assignments of the electronic absorption spectra. Furthermore, the different single-molecule magnet behaviors of the corresponding Tb and Dy triple-decker complexes were also studied

Full textIn this thesis is described the synthesis, structures and magnetic properties of coordination compounds containing Co-Co or Cr-Cr bonds. In the first part of this work a general background is given on the historical evolution of this type of coordination chemistry. In the second chapter the possibility of incorporating a {Co3} cluster with dipyridylamide ligands and intermetallic bonds into one-dimentional coordination polymers is discussed. The interactions between spin centers and the effect of the bridging ligand were studied, and changes in the spin crossover properties were monitored and compared to the precursor. In the third chapter the Single-Molecule Magnet properties of a series of {Cr3} clusters are presented. The influence of the axial ligand and the symmetry of the molecule was considered and correlated to the magnetic properties. In the fourth chapter the phenomenon of coordination induced spin transition in a {Co3} cluster with dipyridylformamidinate ligands is discussed. Changes in magnetism and optical properties as a result of the breaking and restoring of a Co-Co bond were monitored as a function of temperature and light irradiation
