Title:
Reactivity in polynuclear transition metal chemistry as a means to
obtain high-spin molecules: substitution of mu(4)-OH- by eta
1,mu(4)-N-3(-) increases nine times the ground-state S value of a
nonanuclear nickel(II) cage

Abstract:
The reaction of di-2-pyridyl ketone, (2-py)(2)CO, with Ni(O2CMe)(2).
4H(2)O yields the cage [Ni-9(OH)(2)(O2CMe)(8)(2-py) 2CO2(4)],
which reacts further with N-3(-) ions to give the structurally similar
cluster [Ni-9(N-3)(2)(O2CMe)(8)(2-py) 2CO2(4)] containing
extremely rare eta (1),mu (4)-N-3(-) groups; magnetic studies reveal
that the spin ground state of the latter is nine times the ground state
of the former.
