Abstract
Magnetic exchange coupling (J) between different spin centers plays a crucial role in molecule-based magnetic materials. Direct exchange coupling between an organic radical and a metal is frequently stronger than superexchange through diamagnetic ligands, and the strategy of using organic radicals to engender desirable magnetic properties has been an area of active investigation. Despite significant advances and exciting bulk properties, the magnitude of J for radical linkers bridging paramagnetic centers is still difficult to rationally predict. It is thus important to elucidate the features of organic radicals that govern this parameter. Here, we measure J for the tetrathiafulvalene-tetrathiolate radical (TTFtt3-•) in a dinuclear Mn(II) complex. Magnetometry studies show that the antiferromagnetic coupling in this complex is much weaker than that in related Mn(II)-radical compounds, in contrast to what might be expected for the S-based chelating donor atoms of TTFtt. Experimental and computational analyses suggest that this small J coupling may be attributed to poor overlap between Mn- and TTFtt-based magnetic orbitals coupled with insignificant spin density on the coordinating S-atoms. These factors override any expected increase in J from the comparatively strong S-donors. This work elucidates the magnetic coupling properties of the TTFtt3-• radical for the first time and also demonstrates how multiple competing factors must be considered in rationally designing organic radical ligands for molecular-based magnetic compounds.

Abstract
A novel bis-bidentate nitronyl nitroxide radical based on triazolopyrimidine, NIT-2-TrzPm (NIT-2-TrzPm = (2-(2'-triazolopyrimidine)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-oxy-3-oxide)) and six new transition metal complexes of this ligand, namely [M(hfac)2(NIT-2-TrzPm)]·CH2Cl2 (M = Mn (1Mn) and Co (2Co)), [M(hfac)2]2(NIT-2-TrzPm) (M = Mn (3Mn) and Co (4Co)), [Mn(NIT-2-TrzPm)2(MeOH)2](ClO4)2·MeOH (5Mn), and [Co(NIT-2-TrzPm)2(MeOH)2]2(ClO4)4·4MeOH (6Co) were prepared and characterized structurally and magnetically. These complexes can be selectively synthesized by controlling the reaction ratio of M(hfac)2·2H2O to the radical ligand (for 1Mn to 4Co) or using metal perchlorates as the starting materials (for 5Mn and 6Co). Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses confirmed that 1Mn and 2Co are isostructural 3d-2p MII-radical complexes, in which the NIT-2-TrzPm radical acts as a terminal bidentate ligand chelating to one 3d ion, while 3Mn and 4Co are isostructural 3d-2p-3d MII-radical-MII complexes with the NIT-2-TrzPm radical acting as a bridging ligand between two 3d ions. For complexes 5Mn and 6Co, two NIT-2-TrzPm ligands from the equatorial positions coordinate with the metal center to form the 2p-3d-2p structures with the axial positions occupied by two methanol molecules. Magnetic analysis on the MnII complexes revealed the existence of a strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the MnII and the NIT radical spin, while weak ferromagnetic coupling for Mn⋯Mn and Rad⋯Rad in the Mn-NIT-Mn and Rad-Mn-Rad spins was confirmed. Interestingly, although the NIT-bridged complexes 3Mn and 4Co possess significantly different magnetic anisotropy, field-induced slow magnetic relaxation can be observed in both complexes, which was assigned to the phonon bottleneck effect for 3Mn and field-induced SMM behavior for 4Co. To the best of our knowledge, 3Mn is the first example of the NIT-bridged binuclear MnII complex undergoing slow magnetic relaxation.

Abstract
Two new bis-bidentate imidazole-substituted nitronyl nitroxide biradicals, BNITIm-C2 (BNITIm-C2 = 1,1'-(1,2-ethanediyl)bis(1H-imidazole-2-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-oxy-3-oxide)) and BNITIm-C4 (BNITIm-C4 = 1,1'-(1,4-butanediyl)bis(1H-imidazole-2-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-oxy-3-oxide)), and two series of lanthanide complexes, namely [(BNITIm-C2)Ln(NO3)3](MeOH) (Ln = Gd (1Gd) and Tb (2Tb)), (BNITIm-C2)Dy(NO3)3 (3Dy) and (BNITIm-C4)[Ln(hfac)3]2(C7H8)2 (Ln = Gd (4Gd), Tb (5Tb) and Dy (6Dy), hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate), have been prepared and characterized structurally and magnetically. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses revealed that complexes 1Gd-3Dy exhibit 1D chain structures where the Ln(NO3)3 units are bridged by the BNITIm-C2 bis-bidentate biradical, while complexes 4Gd-6Dy exhibit binuclear structures with two Ln(hfac)3 units bridged by the BNITIm-C4 biradical. The bulky hfac anions prohibit the further coordination of LnIII to another NIT ligand and the formation of a similar 1D chain structure. Due to the very long intra- and intermolecular distances of the spin centers, complexes 1Gd-3Dy can be magnetically regarded as an isolated 2p-4f-2p tri-spin system while complex 4Gd-6Dy can be regarded as an isolated 2p-4f bi-spin system. Magnetic analyses on the two GdIII compounds revealed the ferromagnetic GdIII-NIT interactions and antiferromagnetic NIT-NIT interactions through the GdIII ion in 1Gd. Alternating-current (ac) magnetic susceptibility investigations revealed that complex 5Tb exhibits the typical SMM behavior under a zero dc field while complex 6Dy was proved to be a field-induced SMM. Ab initio calculations were performed on complexes 2Tb and 5Tb to understand their magnetic anisotropy together with their different magnetic dynamics.

Abstract
Eleven new lanthanide complexes based on a bis-tridentate nitronyl nitroxide radical NIT-Pm2Py (2-(4,6-di(pyridin-2-yl)pyrimidin-2-yl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-oxy-3-oxide), namely (NIT-Pm2Py)Ln(hfac)3 (Ln = Gd (1Gd), Tb (2Tb), Dy (3Dy), Ho (4Ho), Er (5Er), Yb (6Yb)), [(NIT-Pm2Py)Ln2(hfac)6]·xH2O (Ln = Gd (7Gd), Tb (8Tb), Ho (10Ho), x = 0.5 for 7Gd and 1 for 8Tb and 10Ho) and (NIT-Pm2Py)Ln2(hfac)6 (Ln = Dy (9Dy), Er (11Er)) were prepared and characterized. These complexes can be selectively prepared by controlling the reaction ratio of Ln(hfac)3·2H2O to the radical ligand NIT-Pm2Py. Single crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses confirmed that 1Gd-6Yb are isostructural 2p-4f LnIII-radical complexes, in which the NIT-Pm2Py radical acts as a terminal tridentate ligand chelating to one LnIII ion. On the other hand, 7Gd-11Er are isostructural 4f-2p-4f LnIII-radical-LnIII complexes with the NIT-Pm2Py acting as a bridging ligand between two LnIII ions. 7Gd-11Er represent a rare family of complexes showing the NIT bridged 4f-2p-4f three-spin motif. Alternating-current (ac) magnetic susceptibility investigations revealed that complex 6Yb exhibits field-induced frequency dependence, suggesting a possible field-induced single-molecule magnet behavior. Ab initio calculations were performed on all these complexes. The fitting of the magnetic susceptibilities of these complexes indicates weak antiferromagnetic coupling between the LnIII and NIT radical.
