Using the planar 1,8-naphthyridin-2(1H)-one (Hnpo) ligand, novel nonhelical HMSCs [MoM(npo)(NCS)] (M = Fe, Co, Ni) were synthesised and they exhibited high single-molecule conductance.
A dimeric molybdenum precursor and nickel ions are used to synthesize a symmetric heteropentanuclear complex, [MoNiMo(tpda)(NCS)]. This complex possesses unique structural features, as the four ligands are coordinated to the metal framework in a meso configuration. Furthermore, the central Ni ion is in a high spin state.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
