ON THE COVER: Aspects
of molecule-based magnets. (upper right) Schematic structure
of a hybrid magnet of cobalt hydroxide with p-INB radicals (see
Scheme I, p. 54), showing the multilayer packing of the organic
and inorganic species. (lower right) Chain structure of [Mn(C5Me5)2]+[TCNE]o-.
The dots schematically refer to the p orbitals on [TCNE]o- and
the d orbitals on [Mn(C5Me5)2]+, where the spins principally
reside. Me is methyl (CH3); TCNE is tetracyanoethylene. (upper
left) Thin film of V[TCNE]x magnet on a glass substrate attracted
to a Co5Sm magnet at room temperature in air. This is the only
example of a room-temperature thin-film magnet. (lower left)
Idealized structure of Prussian blue type material with ÆM_¨CNÆM¨CNÆM¢¨
linkages along all three crystallographic directions. For Prussian
blue, M = FeII and
M_ = FeIII. (background) Schemas of various spin-coupling behaviors.
See the technical
theme that begins on p. 21.
