Abstract

Over the past few years, the advancements made in the field of modern coordination chemistry has opened a whole new door to polynuclear metal complexes and their possible application use in a variety of fields such as medicine, research, engineering, and biotechnology. These complexes often possess aesthetically pleasing structures, unique supramolecular architectures, and interesting magnetic properties such as single-molecule magnetism (SMM). SMMs have the ability to act as smart magnetic materials that are ideal for integration within devices like spintronics, quantum computing, and magnetic storage. Picolinic acid N-oxide and derivatives have been found to have numerous uses such as an antibacterial drug for the treatment of tuberculosis, psoriasis and arthritis, it is also found to be useful in agriculture as a plant growth regulator, herbicide, and pesticide when in the presences of specific central metal ions. Studies focused on the synthesizing of magnetic materials with bulky carboxylate ligands are rare, therefore; Our focus is to synthesize rarely explored bulky carboxylate ligands such as 2,2-Dimethylbutyric Acid (EtC(Me)₂COOH) along with the ligand picolinic acid N-oxide with lanthanide metal ions like Gadolinium (III) Nitrate and to report initial reactions that will contribute to the advancement of modern coordination chemistry.
