Explaining the magnetism in cyanide-based magnets: The origin of ferromagnetism (F) in the recently synthesized heteronuclear cyanide-bridged clusters and three-dimensional (3D) networks containing octacyanometallates is elucidated. The main factor is the orthogonality of the “magnetic orbitals” of the octametallates to the σ orbitals of all the bridging cyanides, which strongly reduces the antiferromagnetic (AF) contribution to the magnetism of these compounds. The kinetic contribution to the superexchange is shown schematically, the arrows show the direction of the electron transfer.
