Magnetic susceptibility and torque anisotropy were measured on the
novel quasi–one-dimensional cuprate 
. Substantial hole doping between 0.27 and
0.36 holes/Cu can be achieved by changing the oxygen content. This strongly influences
dimerization, which originates from a modulated exchange coupling in the 
chains. Another interesting result is the unexpected transition at
into an antiferromagnetic ordered state in spite of the
high doping. By torque analysis the existence of an easy axis in this
ordered state was clearly demonstrated and its orientation determined.
