Abstract: Based on the density functional theory(DFT) combined with the broken symmetry(BS) approach, the magnetic coupling interaction in the hydrogen-bonded copper(Ⅱ) dimmer and the change of magnetic coupling constant with the change of the O-O distance were studied. The orbital analysis shows that the superexchange interaction in the hydrogen-bonded Cu(Ⅱ) dimmers comes from the overlap between the dx2-y2 orbital on Cu(Ⅱ) ions and px or py orbitals on O atoms, whereas the hydrogen bridges do not participate the magnetic coupling. The dependence of the magnetic coupling constant J value on the O-O distance can be expressed as an exponential function.
