The single-crystal X-ray structure of solvent-free (tmtaa)CoII reveals three different π-π intermacrocyclic interactions between tmtaa units (tmtaa = dibenzotetramethyltetraaza[14]annulene). Pairs of inequivalent (tmtaa)CoII units in the unit cell link into a one-dimensional π-π stacked array in the solid state. Magnetic susceptibility (χ) studies from 300 to 2 K reveal the effects of intermolecular interactions between (tmtaa)CoII units in the solid state. The effective magnetic moment per CoII center is constant at 2.83 μB from 300 to 100 K and begins to significantly decrease at lower temperatures. The magnetic data are fit to a singlet ( S = 0) ground state with a triplet ( S = 1) excited state that is 13 cm-1 higher in energy (-2 J = 13 cm-1). Toluene solutions of (tmtaa)CoII have 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) paramagnetic shifts, a solution-phase magnetic moment μeff (295 K) of 2.1 μB, and toluene glass electron paramagnetic resonance spectra that are most consistent with a low-spin ( S = 1/2) CoII with the unpaired electron located in the d yz orbital. Pyridine interacts with (tmtaa)CoII to form a five-coordinate monopyridine complex in which the unpaired electron is in the d z2 orbital. The five-coordinate complex has been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and the equilibrium constant for pyridine binding at 295 K has been evaluated by both electronic and 1H NMR spectra. Density functional theory computation using the UB3LYP hybrid functional places the unpaired electron for (tmtaa)CoII in the d yz orbital and that for the monopyridine complex in the d z2 orbital, consistent with spectroscopic observations.
