摘要

Using a methodology based on noncollinear coupled-perturbed density functional theory [J. Chem. Phys. 2013, 138, 174115] we calculate the magnetic exchange coupling parameters in a recently synthesized set of Fe-7(III) disklike clusters [Inorg. Chem. 2011, 50, 3849-3851] to explain the unusually high ground-state spin found in the experiments. We show that the calculated exchange interactions for the new series of Fe-7(III) disks present strikingly different trends compared to prior Fe-7(III) disks. These differences are attributed to variations in the bridging ligands and the consequent structural changes in the complexes. The impact of these differences on the experimental ground-state spin of these complexes is rationalized using a simple classical spin model system and the calculated magnetic exchange couplings.
