Article: Research from Nanjing University provide new insights into inorganic chemistry.

"Four ion-pair complexes of [Ni(dmit)(2)](-) with [NO(2)bzql](+) have been obtained, which belong to two kinds of polymorph forms, [NO(2)bzql][Ni(dmit)(2)] (1 alpha and 1 beta) and [NO(2)bzql][Ni(dmit)(2)]center dot CH3COCH3 (2 alpha and 2 beta) (where dmit = 2-thioxo-1,3-dithiole-4,5-dithiolate and [NO(2)bzql](+) = 1-(4-nitrobenzyl)quinolinium). Though 1 alpha, 2 alpha, and 2 beta all show anionic dimerization structures at room temperature, they have different anionic and cationic arrangement fashions, which give rise to different magnetic behaviors for these polymorphs or pseudo-polymorphs," scientists writing in the journal Inorganic Chemistry report.
