Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

Compound 1a combines conductivity with BET surface area above 1000 m2/g, which the authors identify as unusually high for conductive MOFs.

Caveat: Comparative claim relies on literature context current to 2017.

8 · Electrical Conductivity · Linked to 2 structured results

CaveatSupport assessment: Medium

Magnetic behaviour in 2 is likely dominated by intralayer metal-organic radical coupling and is best described tentatively as a 2D bulk ferrimagnet.

Caveat: The paper explicitly says magnetic behaviour alone cannot definitively determine dimensionality.

CaveatSupport assessment: High

Pressed-pellet conductivity values for low-dimensional materials may be artificially low because anisotropic pathways and grain boundaries suppress transport.

Caveat: Single-crystal conductivities were not measured in this paper.

7 · Electrical Conductivity · Linked to 3 structured results

Phase AssignmentSupport assessment: High

Reduction of 1 to 2 is ligand-centred rather than Fe-centred, giving [FeIII2(L3-rad)3]3- while retaining high-spin FeIII.

Caveat: Authors caution that X-ray diffraction alone is not conclusive because bond-distance changes are small; spectroscopy strengthens the assignment.

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: Medium

Compound 2 reaches Tc = 105 K because complete ligand reduction strengthens intralayer metal-organic radical coupling.

Caveat: The authors state the magnetic dimensionality/ferrimagnet assignment is tentative from magnetic data alone.

7 · Magnetic Properties · Figure 7 · Linked to 3 structured results

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

Conductivity decreases from 1 to 2 because full ligand reduction removes mixed valency and a facile charge-hopping pathway.

Caveat: Mechanistic interpretation is inferred from conductivity and activation-energy trends rather than direct charge-transport imaging.
