Description
Summary:Layered metal(II)-based carboxylate compounds are shown to be suitable for the design and preparation of new hybrid materials. The structure-magnetic property relationship of these kind of copper derivatives is discussed. Two series of copper(II) n-alkyl carboxylates are compared; one exhibits unprecedented ferromagnetic interactions for distances as far as 40 Å between the metal layers. Their properties are linked to a structural transformation of the inorganic layers from Brucite-like to Cu(OH) 2 type arrangement.
