✦ Synopsis
Molecular orbital calculations have been carried out for clusters of para-nitrophenyl nitronyl nitroxide (pNPNN) extracted from the experimental crystal structure of its p-phase. Three-dimensional effective exchange integrals (&,) are found to be positive (ferromagnetic). The ferromagnetic transition temperature is estimated by a generalized Langevin-Weiss model combined with the calculated Jab, being consistent with the observed value. A theoretical explanation is presented for the long-range ferromagnetic ordering in the pNPNN crystal. Implications of the calculated results are also discussed in relation to a theoretical possibility of organic ferromagnetism of other substituted phenyl nitronyl nitroxides.
