The X-ray crystal analyses showed that complex 1 displayed a chain polymer structure which formed with {[Cu(hfac)2]3(NITmPhO3Py)2}n due to the cross-linking of two cyclic binuclear fragments {[Cu(hfac)2]2(NITmPhO3- Py)2} via the bridging unit [Cu(hfac)2]; complex 2 presented a binuclear cyclic structure [Cu(hfac)2]2(NIToPhO3Py)2. The magnetic behaviors of the two complexes 1 and 2 have been investigated. Magnetic studies showed that antiferromagnetic interactions dominated in complex 1, while there existed ferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) and coordinated NO group in complex 2. %K Flexible Nitronyl Nitroxide %K Cu(II) Complex %K Synthesis %K Characterization %K Magnetic Property %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=121419
