Syntheses, structures and magnetic properties of three 1-D chain metal-nitroxide coordination polymers bridged by e,e-trans-1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate

► Three 1-D chain metal-nitroxide complexes have been characterized. ► The 1,4-cyclohexanedicarboxylate only possesses the e,e-trans-conformation. ► The complexes both exhibit weak antiferromagnetic interactions. ► The results are of significance for understanding the magneto-structural correlation.
