Abstract
Molecular-based magnets with high magnetic-ordering temperatures, T(c), can be obtained by mild chemistry methods by focusing on the bimetallic and mixed-valence transition metal micro-cyanide of the Prussian blue family. A simple orbital model was used to predict the electronic structure of the metal ions required to achieve a high ordering temperature. The synthesis and magnetic properties of two compounds, [Cr(5)(CN)(12)].10H(2)O and Cs(0.75) [Cr(2.125)(CN)(6)].5H(2)O, which exhibited magnetic-ordering temperatures of 240 and 190 kelvin, respectively, are reported, together with the strategy for further work.
