Ferromagnetic coupling in a novel dicyanamide-bridged dinuclear gadolinium(III) complex [Gd2(dca)4(OH)2 (NITpPy)4] (NITpPy = 4-pyridyl-nitronyl nitroxide radical)

Ferromagnetic coupling dicyanamide-bridged dinuclear gadolinium(III) complex [Gd2(dca)4(OH)2(NITpPy)4] (dca = dicyanamide, NITpPy = 4-pyridyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazolyl-oxy-3-oxide) has been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography.
