N2 - The use of methyl 2-pyridyl ketone oxime (mpkoH) in manganese benzoate chemistry is reported. The reaction of Mn(O2CPh)2 · 2H2O with two equivalents of mpkoH in CH2Cl2 affords the mononuclear complex [MnII(O2CPh)2(mpkoH)2] (2) in high yield. The MnII atom is coordinated by two monodentate PhCO2
- groups and two N,N′-bidentate mpkoH chelates in a cis-cis-trans fashion. Reaction mixtures comprising (NBun
4)[MnIII
4O 2(O2CPh)9(H2O)] and mpkoH in CH2Cl2, [MnIIMnIII
2O(O2CPh) 6(py)2(H2O)] and mpkoH in CH2Cl2, or Mn(O2CPh)2 · 2H2O, NBun
4 MnO4 and mpkoH in MeOH/MeCN/CH2Cl2 all lead to the mixed-valent cluster [MnII
4MnIII
4O2(OH )2(O2CPh)10(mpko)4] (3) in moderate yields. The cluster molecule has the [Mn8(μ4-O)2(μ3-OH) 2]14+ core (another description of the core is [Mn8(μ4-O)2(μ3-OH) 2(μ-OR′′)4(μ-ONR‴) 4]6+). Peripheral ligation is provided by two η1, four η1:η1:μ and four η1:η2:μ3PhCO2 - groups, as well as four η1:η1:η1:μ mpko- ligands. Variable-temperature, solid-state dc and ac magnetic studies were carried out on complex 3 in the 5.0-300 K (dc) and 1.8-10 K (ac) ranges. The data reveal dominant antiferromagnetic interactions and a resulting S = 0 ground state, which is rationalized in terms of the strong antiferromagnetic coupling within the central {Mn2
III O2}2+ subunit.
