Abstract
Developing materials with adjustable magnetic properties remains a significant challenge. Our efforts in materials science include the design and synthesis of innovative magnets using molecular building blocks. We have discovered that the choice of ligands coordinated to metal ions plays a crucial role in guiding control and tunability. Many of these systems have been characterized by infrared (IR) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction to verify their composition and to reveal their crystal structures which range from simple molecules to more complex polymers. This poster will present current progress toward characterizing how pyridines and pyrimidines act as ligands between various metal cations.
