Magnetic Exchange in Transition Metal Complexes. V.Ia Ferromagnetic Spin Coupling in a Tetranuclear Nickel(I1) Cluster BY J A B E R T R 4 X D 13 A P GINSBERG,* lo R I KAPLAS,'b C E KIRKIVOOD,'b R L hlARTIP\',ld A A D R C SHERWOODIG

Received March 20, 1970 Three-dimensional single-crystal X-ray data show the tetrameric clusters of tetrakis [pa-methoxo-2,4-pentanedionatomethanolcobalt(II)] to have the "cubane" type molecular structure. The compound crystallizes as red needles (a = 21.79 (4) A, b = 10.91 (2) if, c = 20.21 (4) if, and /3 = 121.7 (1)') of monoclinic space group CZ/c with 4 tetramer units per unit cell; the calculated density of 1.43 g:'cni3 agrees well with the experimental value of 1.40 ( 2 ) g,/cm3. A total of 1557 unique nonzero reflections were visually estimated f r o m precession camera photographs; least-squares refinement rFsulted in a conventional R value-of 0.10. The S i complex Ni4(0CH3)r(acac)a(CH30H)ais isostructural (a = 21.55 (4) A, b = 10.88 ( 2 ) -&, c = 20.00 (4) A, and /3 = 121.4 (1j o ) , The magnetic susceptibility of the Si complex has been measured from 296 down to 1.63'K1, and the field dependence of the susceptibility has been examined to l5,3 kOe a t several temperatures belorv 20'K. The results demonstrate that the eight eg electrons centered on the tetrad of nickel atoms are ferrotnagnetically coupled, the ground molecular spin state for the tetramer being S' = 4 ( i , e , ,eight spins parallel) and being fully populated by 21 OK. The magnitude of the intramolecular !Si-Xi coupling constant is J = 10' (-7 cm-lj. The tetramer molecules in their ground state exhibit an additional intermolecular ferromagnetic coupling which gives rise to a Weiss constant 0 = $0.8". This compound provides the second example of a polynuclear ferromagnet in which the level of niaximuni spin multiplicity has been fully populated by taking it to very low temperatures. I t is the first example of a cluster complex found to exhibit both intra- and intermolecular ferromagnetic spin coupling.

Introduction
