Anisotropic Effect after Stretching of the Spin-Crossover Compound [Fe(II)(2,6-bis-(benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine)2] (C1O4)2 in Polyvinylalcohol Polymer Matrix
Abstract [Fe(II)(2,6-bis-(benzimidazol-2′-yl)-pyridine)2](C1O4)2 diffused into a poly(vinyl)alcohol polymer matrix, exhibits an thermally induced spin-crossover. After stretching the matrix, the compound orients itself in the matrix. Polarised UV/VIS spectra measured parallel and perpendicular to the stretching direction allowed to calculate the distortion of the molecule in the matrix by means of semi-empirical PPP SCF-CI calculations.
Spin-Transition in [Fe(II)(2,6-Bis-(Benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine)2] (CIO4)2: Hysteresis Effect Dependent on the Matrix
Abstract Far-Infrared spectroscopical investigation of the spin-crossover in [Fe(II)(2,6-bis-(benzimidazol-2′-yl)-pyridine)2] (CIO4)2 exhibits a hysteresis in both CsI and polyethylene matrices within temperature cycles between 100K and 520K. The hysteresis broadening is dependent on the matrix and bigger in CsI. This can be explained due to polarity and hydrogen bonding. Two low spin vibrations, LS1 at 437 cm−1 and LS2 at 424cm−1, are observed. On heating from 100K to 520K: during LS1 decreases, the LS2 raises temporarily, until both LS1 and LS2 disappear; for the HS only one raising species was observed. This gives raise to assume two different sub-lattices.
Spin crossover in mononuclear and binuclear iron(III) complexes with pentadentate Schiff-base ligands
Abstract A series of mononuclear hexacoordinate iron(III) complexes, [Fe( 5 L )(py)]BPh 4 , and binuclear hexacoordinate iron(III) complexes, [( 5 L )Fe(μ 2 -bpy)Fe( 5 L )](BPh 4 ) 2 , has been prepared and their magnetic properties were investigated; the pentadentate ligands were derivatives of 5 L =saldptn=N,N′-bis(2-hydroxybenzyliden)-1,7-diamino-4-azaheptane. Temperature variation of the effective magnetic moment for them shows that a spin transition from the low-spin to the high-spin state occurs. The magnetic data were fitted to an Ising-like model appropriate for the mono- and binuclear systems.
