Abstract

In this paper magnetic properties of hybrid inorganic-organic compound {[Fe_II(pyrazole)₄]₂[Nb^IV(CN)₈]∙4H₂O}_n are presented. This is a three dimensional molecular magnet with well localized magnetic moments, which make it a suitable candidate for testing magnetic models. In order to characterize the magnetic properties of the above compound we performed the AC/DC magnetometry in the range 0-5 T. The special attention was paid to the phase transition at 7.9 K. The study in magnetic field supports magnetic ordering below 7.9 K.
