Magnetic structure of nickel diglycine dihydrate

  • 1. Oak Ridge National Lab., TN

Description

Nickel diglycine dihydrate (NiDD) [Ni(CH2CO2NH2)2 x 2H2O] is a metal derivative of the amino acid glycine. NiDD is interesting in that it is a possible metamagnet with a large single-ion anisotropy compared with the magnetic interaction between nickel ions. The compound is also a good model system for metal ions in proteins, and from it one may learn something about electronic paths for superexchange in these macromolecules. In order to understand the magnetic properties of NiDD, the authors made neutron diffraction measurements on single-crystal samples
