Three new isostructural binuclear transition metal complexes with azido ion and 1,2-bis（3-（pyridin-2-yl）-lH-pyrazol-1- yl）ethane （bppe）, formulated as [M2（N3）2（bppe）2]（C104）2 （M = Co, 1; Ni, 2; Cu, 3）, were successfully synthesized. They were structurally and magnetically characterized. In 1-3, the double azido ions link two adjacent octahedral metal centers together in the end-to-on mode （EO）, with the M-NEo-M angles of 99.41°, 100.24° and 99.80°, respectively. The co-ligand bppe acts as terminal ligand to saturate the remaining coordination sites. The magnetic properties of 1-3 have been investigated in the tem- perature range of 2-300 K. Fitting of the magnetic susceptibility data revealed the occurrence of the strong ferromagnetic in- teractions [J = 26.32 cm-1 （1）, J = 38.23 cm-1 （2） and J = 139.83 cm-1 （3）]. Density functional theory calculations have been performed on 1-3 to provide a magneto-structural correlation of the ferromagnetic behavior.
A series of new lanthanide-radical complexes [{Ln（hfac）3}2（NITPhlM）2] （Ln = Nd （1）, Eu （2）, Tb （3）, Er （4）; hfac = hexafluoroacetylacetonate; NITPhlM = 2-[4-（1-imidazole）phenyl]-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-l-oxyl-3-oxide） have been prepared and characterized. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal that these complexes are isostructural with one-dimensional chain structures. These consist in Ln（hfac）3 units bridged by the paramagnetic ligands by the means of coor- dination of their nitronyl nitroxide groups and imidazole rings. Interestingly, each Ln ion is either bound to two nitronyl ni- troxide groups or to two imidazole units, and the different Ln centers alternate along the chain. Magnetic studies show that complex 3 exhibits a single-chain magnet behavior.
