Abstract

The CuII aggregate in [Cu9(cpida)6(MeOH)6]·6(MeOH) {H3cpida = 2-(carboxyphenyl)iminodiacetic acid} is made up of two weakly ferromagnetically coupled carboxylate-bridged Cu4 units that are antiferromagnetically linked through a central CuII to give a Cu9 core with an S = 7/2 spin ground state.
