Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of transition metal coordination functional materials, and relates to a cobalt coordination compound with ferromagnetic interaction, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] Coordination polymers, an important form of supramolecular polymers, are built upon a precise self-assembly process between metal ions and organic ligands. Coordination polymers, with their highly ordered, infinite network structures, represent one concrete application of crystal engineering in supramolecular compounds. Coordination polymers possess novel structures and hold broad application prospects. [2] This has aroused great interest among many researchers.
[0003] Coordination polymers, as a special class of compounds, have metal centers figuratively called "nodes," a term that highlights the central role of the metal center in the structure of coordination polymers. Transition metal ions, due to their unique electronic structures, are often used as nodes in coordination polymers. The d orbitals of their electron-filled portions exhibit different orbital coupling modes under different coordination environments, which makes it possible to design coordination polymers with specific properties and applications. By adjusting the type of transition metal ion and the coordination environment, the properties of coordination polymers can be precisely controlled. Different types of electronic structures are an important factor in their ability to possess a variety of different coordination geometries.
[0004] Coordination polymers, due to their unique structure and composition, exhibit diverse magnetic properties, which hold significant research value and application prospects in materials science and physics. Magnetism is the macroscopic manifestation of the magnetic moments of atoms or ions in solid matter, typically encompassing different magnetic properties such as ferromagnetism, ferrimagnetism, and ferrimagnetism. Ferromagnetism refers to the tendency of adjacent atoms or ions in a substance to align in the same direction due to their interactions. Under the influence of an external magnetic field, this directional alignment of magnetic moments is enhanced until saturation is reached. To achieve efficient magnetism, metal ions can form shorter bonds with small ligands (such as cyano or azide groups), thereby enhancing the magnetic coupling between metal ions.
