The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of single-anion bridged, dinuclear copper(II) metallacycles [Cu2(μ-X)(μ-L)2](A)3 (L(m) = m-bis[bis(1-pyrazolyl)methyl]benzene: X = F(-), A = BF4(-); X = Cl(-), OH(-), A = ClO4(-); L(m)* = m-bis[bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methyl]benzene: X = CN(-), F(-), Cl(-), OH(-), Br(-), A = ClO4(-)) have relatively sharp (1)H and (13)C NMR resonances with small hyperfine shifts due to the strong antiferromagnetic superexchange interactions between the two S = 1/2 metal centers. The complete assignments of these spectra, except X = CN(-), have been made through a series of NMR experiments: (1)H-(1)H COSY, (1)H-(13)C HSQC, (1)H-(13)C HMBC, T1 measurements and variable-temperature (1)H NMR. The T1 measurements accurately determine the Cu···H distances in these molecules. In solution, the temperature dependence of the chemical shifts correlate with the population of the paramagnetic triplet (S = 1) and diamagnetic singlet (S = 0) states. This correlation allows the determination of antiferromagnetic exchange coupling constants, -J (Ĥ = -JŜ1Ŝ2), in solution for the L(m) compounds 338(F(-)), 460(Cl(-)), 542(OH(-)), for the L(m)* compounds 128(CN(-)), 329(F(-)), 717(Cl(-)), 823(OH(-)), and 944(Br(-)) cm(-1), respectively. These values are of similar magnitudes to those previously measured in the solid state (-Jsolid = 365, 536, 555, 160, 340, 720, 808, and 945 cm(-1), respectively). This method of using NMR to determine -J values in solution is an accurate and convenient method for complexes with strong antiferromagnetic superexchange interactions. In addition, the similarity between the solution and solid-state -J values of these complexes confirms the information gained from the T1 measurements: the structures are similar in the two states.
