Abstract

Reaction of K3[Cr(CN)6] with a square-planar macrocyclic Ni(II) complex leads to a 2D honeycomb-like layered complex with novel hydrogen-bonding linkages in the honeycomb. Magnetic studies reveal that the complex displays a long range antiferromagnetic ordering with TN = 12.6 K at low field, and metamagnetic behavior originating from intralayer ferromagnetic and interlayer antiferromagnetic interactions.
