New Ni4Na2-phenylgermsesquioxane architecture: synthesis, structure and slow dynamic behaviour

Dalton Trans. 2018 May 22;47(20):6893-6897. doi: 10.1039/c8dt00900g.

Abstract

The first Ni(ii)-based metallagermaniumsesquioxane cage compound [(PhGeO1.5)10(NiO)4(NaO0.5)2] presents a sandwich-like structure where two germsesquioxane cages are linked through an {NiO}4 core and exhibits slow dynamics of the magnetization.
