High-Field Magnetization Process of O2 Adsorbed in a Microporous Coordination Polymer CPL-1 at Various Temperatures

High-field magnetization measurements have been performed at various temperatures on the molecular oxygen adsorbed in a microporous coordination polymer CPL-1. Molecular oxygen with S = 1 forms O-2-O-2 dimer in the nanochannels of CPL-1. The magnetic properties can be explained by not the S = 1 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic dimer model but the O-2-O-2 dimer model taking into account the spin-dependent intermolecular potential. This feature is attributed to the fact that the magnetic interaction between O-2 is comparable to the van der Waals force.
