Unveiling field-induced single-ion magnetism in pentacoordinate and heptacoordinate cobalt(II), dysprosium(III) and terbium(III) complexes with a tridentate bis(benzimidazole)pyridine ligand
{{output}}
We report the synthesis, crystal structures, and magnetic properties of three Co(II) and two Ln(III) (Dy, Tb) complexes, all containing the tridentate ligand 2,6-bis(3-methoxypropyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine (L). The pentacoordinate Co(II) complexes [Co(L)... ...
