Popis: Novel and reliable methods for the synthesis of the polymers [Cu(4-Xpz)2]x (where X = H, Cl, Br, and Me; pz = pyrazolate) are presented. The X = Cl compound was obtained as green and brown forms. Single crystals of the polymers with X = Me and X = Cl (green form) suitable for X-ray analysis have been obtained. [Cu(4-Mepz)2]x and [Cu(4-Clpz)2]x are isomorphous, crystallizing with four formula units per unit-cell in the orthorhombic space group Ibam, a = 9.7436(6), 9.155(4), b = 12.6106(8), 12.968(6), and c = 7.7482(6), 7.717(5) Å, respectively, for the 4-Me and 4-Cl derivatives. The structures were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.027 and 0.041 for 430 and 246 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I), respectively. Magnetic susceptibility studies over the temperature range 2 to 300 K have revealed that all the polymers exhibit very strong antiferromagnetic exchange between copper(II) centres in the extended linear chains. Discontinuities displayed in the susceptibility versus temperature plots suggest the presence of phase transitions at ~133 and ~108 K in the X = Cl (green form) and X = Br materials, respectively. The four compounds, X = H, Br, Me, and Cl (green form) also exhibit thermochromism over the 77 to 176 K region. The magnetic data have been analyzed employing an isotropic Heisenberg model for antiferromagnetic exchange in extended chain polymers. Values of the exchange coupling constant, J, for the room temperature forms of these materials are determined as −81, −105, −96, −104, and −88 cm−1 for 4-X = H, Br, Me, Cl (green form), and Cl (brown form), respectively. The magnitude of the exchange coupling is discussed in relation to structural parameters for the X = H, Me, and Cl (green form) compounds. Key words: copper(II) 4-substituted pyrazolate polymers, crystal structures, magnetic exchange.
