Adsorbates on thin iron(100) films
1995
The electronic and magnetic properties of different kinds of adsorbates on thin magnetized Fe(100) films have been investigated by means of spin resolving photoelectron spectroscopy. The study has been carried out with atomically physisorbed xenon, the molecule carbon monoxide, and metallic gold. The spin splitting of the Xe 5p signal can be explained by magnetic interactions with the final ionic hole state. By spin analysis, it could be shown that at room temperature for low exposures the adsorption of CO is dissociative and with increasing exposure additionally molecular. The Au related features for the monolayer show different line shapes in both spin channels but no splittings due to an…
Spin forbidden chemical reactions of transition metal compounds. New ideas and new computational challenges.
2003
International audience; Many reactions of transition metal compounds involve a change in spin. These reactions may proceed faster, slower—or at the same rate as—otherwise equivalent processes in which spin is conserved. For example, ligand substitution in [CpMo(Cl)2(PR3)2] is faster than expected, whereas addition of dinitrogen to [Cp*Mo(Cl)(PMe3)2] is slow. Spin-forbidden oxidative addition of ethylene to [Cp*Ir(PMe3)] occurs competitively with ligand association. To explain these observations, we discuss the shape of the different potential energy surfaces (PESs) involved, and the energy of the minimum energy crossing points (MECPs) between them. This computational approach is of great he…
Ligand dissociation accelerated by spin state change: locating the minimum energy crossing point for phosphine exchange in CpMoCl2(PR3)2 complexes
2000
International audience; The minimum energy crossing point between the doublet and quartet potential energy surfaces of CpMoCl2(PH3)2 is calculated to lie 4.8 kcal mol−1 lower in energy than the doublet dissociative intermediate CpMoCl2(PH3). Implications for the influence of spin state changes on the rates of organometallic reactions are discussed.
Single-Molecule-Magnet Fe Fe and Antiferromagnetic Fe Coordination Clusters
2019
Supported by endogenous (part of the ligand, in-built) phenoxo bridges provided by the ligand 2,6-bis[{{(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzyl)}{(2-(pyridylethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol) (H3L), in its deprotonated form, exogenous (not part of the ligand, externally added or generated) oxo-/hydroxo- and acetato-bridged [FeII4FeIII2(O)2(O2CMe)4(L)2]·4Et2O (1) and [FeIII4(OH)2(O2CMe)3(L)2](ClO4)·3MeCN·2H2O (2) coordination clusters have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Complexes 1 and 2 have μ4-O and μ3-OH bridges, respectively. Magnetic studies on 1 reveal slow magnetic relaxation below 2 K. Both in-phase ( χ'M) and out-of-phase (χ″M) magnetic susceptibility were found to be frequency…
Influence of Metal Dilution on the Light‐Induced Spin Transition in Two 1D Chain Compounds: [Fe x Zn 1– x (btzp) 3 ](BF 4 ) 2 and [Fe x Zn 1– x (endi…
2008
The thermal and light-induced spin transitions in [FexZn1–x(btzp)3](BF4)2 and [FexZn1–x(endi)3](BF4)2 {btzp = 1,2-bis(tetrazol-1-yl)propane; endi = 1,2-bis(tetrazol-1-yl)ethane} chain compounds have been investigated by magnetic susceptibility, photomagnetism and diffuse reflectivity measurements. These compounds display a thermal spin transition and the Light-Induced Excited Spin State Trapping (LIESST) effect at low temperature. For each compound, the thermal spin transition temperature, T1/2, and the relaxation temperature of the photo-induced high-spin state, T(LIESST), have been systematically determined. A decrease in T1/2 induces an increase in T(LIESST). The results are discussed an…
Solvent-dependent SCO Behavior of Dinuclear Iron(II) Complexes with a 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Bridging Ligand
2016
Two dinuclear iron(II) complexes [Fe2(μ-L)2]X4*4DMF (X = BF4(-) (1·4DMF) and ClO4(-) (2·4DMF)) with a 1,3,4-thiadiazole bridging ligand have been synthesized and show a very distinct solvent-depending SCO behavior. The complexes represent new solvatomorphs of the first dinuclear iron(II) complexes with the ligand L (2,5-bis[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole). The incorporated lattice DMF molecules directly affect the spin state of these complexes. This behavior reveals a structural insight into the role of the solvent molecules on the spin transition.
Very Long-Lived Photogenerated High-Spin Phase of a Multistable Spin-Crossover Molecular Material
2018
The spin-crossover compound [Fe(n-Bu-im)3(tren)](PF6)2 shows an unusual long relaxation time of 20 h after light-induced excited spin state trapping when irradiating at 80 K. This is more than 40 times longer than when irradiating at 10 K. Optical absorption spectroscopy, magnetometry, and X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation were used to characterize and explain the different relaxation behaviors of this compound after irradiation below and above 70 K. Rearrangement of the butyl chains of the ligands occurring during the relaxation after irradiation above 70 K is thought to be responsible for the unusually long relaxation time at this temperature.
Raman spectroscopy of the high- and low-spin states of the spin crossover complex Fe(phen)2(NCS)2: an initial approach to estimation of vibrational c…
2000
Abstract Raman spectra of the spin-crossover complex Fe(phen)2(NCS)2 in the solid state have been recorded at 785 nm as a function of temperature to investigate the contribution of intramolecular vibrations to the entropy change, ΔS, associated with spin crossover. The modes of major interest for estimating the contribution lie in the range 100–500 cm−1, where the largest qualitative changes with temperature in the Raman spectra were observed. Analysis of these data, with the working assumption of an average frequency in this range as representative of the 15 distortion modes of an idealised FeN6 octahedron, leads to the conclusion that the intramolecular vibrations represent a primary cont…
Spin-crossover in the [Fe(abpt)2(NCX)2] (X=S, Se) system: Structural, Magnetic, calorimetric and photomagnetic studies
1999
[EN] The compounds [Fe(abpt)(2)(NCS)(2)] (1) and [Fe(abpt)(2)(NCSe)(2)] (2) with abpt = 4-amino-3,5-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,2,4-triazole have been synthesized. The X-ray structures have been determined at 293 K. 1 and 2 are isostructural and crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with Z = 2, a = 8.538(8), b = 10.246(8), c = 16.45(2) Angstrom, beta = 93.98(9)degrees for 1 and a = 8.623(2), b = 10.243(3), c = 16.585(3) Angstrom, beta = 93.19(2)degrees for 2. In both complexes, the coordination core has a similar pseudo-octahedral geometry with the NCS- (1) and NCSe- (2) groups in the trans-position. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility data give evidence for a low-spin (LS)high…
Light induced excited spin state trapping in the binuclear spin crossover compound [Fe(bpym)(NCS)2]2(bpym) exhibiting a high-spin ground state
2008
Abstract A photo-magnetic effect is evidenced using near-infrared light in the binuclear complex [Fe(bpym)(NCS) 2 ] 2 (bpym). This compound has a 5 T 2g – 5 T 2g ground state and exhibits no thermal spin crossover – in contrast to the analogous [Fe(bpym)(NCSe) 2 ] 2 (bpym). The estimated photo-conversion ratio is ca. 30%. By means of magnetic susceptibility measurements as well as Raman and infrared absorption spectroscopies, the nature of the photo-induced phase was established as the 5 T 2g – 1 A 1g state, which means that only one iron center is converted to low-spin. The photo-induced state was completely converted back to the ground state either by visible light excitation or by heatin…
