Photoinduced HS state in the first spin-crossover chain containing a cyanocarbanion as bridging ligand
A new polymeric approach, based on cyanocarbanion ligands, for the design of spin crossover (SCO) compounds led us to the compound [Fe(abpt)2(tcpd)] (1) (tcpd^2 = (C[C(CN)2|3)^2 , abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole) which has been characterised as the first SCO molecular chain involving a cyanocarbanion as bridging ligand.

Cyanocarbanion-based spin-crossover materials: photocrystallographic and photomagnetic studies of a new iron(II) neutral chain
International audience; A new iron(II) chain of formula [Fe(abpt)(2)(tcpd)] [1; (tcpd)(2-) = [C(10)N(6)](2-) = (C[C(CN)(2)](3))(2-) = 2-dicyanomethylene-1,1,3,3-tetracyanopropanediide anion, abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole] has been synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy, detailed variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic and photomagnetic measurements. The crystal structure determination of 1 reveals a one-dimensional structural architecture in which the (tcpd)(2-) cyanocarbanion acts as a μ(2)-bridging ligand and the two abpt molecules act as chelating ligands. Detailed X-ray diffraction studies as a function of the temperature (293-10 K…
Guidelines to design new spin crossover materials
International audience; This review focuses on new families of spin crossover (SCO) complexes based on polynitrile anions as new anionic ligands or on polyazamacrocycles as neutral macrocyclic ligands. We have shown that the structural and electronic characteristics (original coordination modes and high electronic delocalization) of the polynitrile anions can be tuned by slight chemical modifications such as substitution of functional groups or variation of the negative charge to design new discrete or polymeric SCO systems.In our ongoing work on the design of new molecular systems based on new ligands that can be fine-tuned via chemical modifications, another promising way which has been r…
