Spin crossover in a tetranuclear Cr(III)-Fe(III)3 complex
2004
A novel heteronuclear exchange-coupled complex [Cr I I I {(CN)Fe I I I -( 5 L)} 3 (CN) 3 ] containing a pentadentate blocking ligand 5 L was synthesized. The X-ray structure shows that a meridional isomer applies with inequivalent Fe I I I centers. The complex exhibits a thermally induced spin crossover along with the exchange coupling. Mossbauer spectra indicate a spin transition between S = ½ and S = 5/2 states although a considerable amount of Fe I I I centers stays high-spin at T = 6 K. The magnetization, the magnetic susceptibility, and the Mossbauer data were fitted in one run with a spin crossover model taking into account exchange interactions among all metal centers.
Spin transition in [Fe(phen)2(NCS)2] - �SR study
2004
The reversible thermal spin transition which occurs in [Fe(phen)(2)(NCS)(2)] around T-1/2 similar to 177 K has been investigated by muon spin relaxation (muSR) (similar to10-280 K). The depolarisation curves are well described by two Lorentzian lines represent fast and slow components in the decay curves, with the initial asymmetry parameter of the fast component found to track the spin transition in [Fe(phen)2(NCS),]. Comparison of zero-field and transverse field (20 Oe) muSR measurements shows that diamagnetic muonic species occur over the entire temperature range.
Debye-Waller factor in the spin crossover complex Fe(ppi)2(NCS)2
1997
Abstract Mossbauer spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements for the complex Fe(ppi) 2 (NCS) 2 in the temperature range 11–300 K indicate that the spin transition of this compound is incomplete until 11 K. The similar Debye-Waller factors in high spin (HS) and low spin (LS) states is shown by the comparison of the HS fractions from the two different methods. The Debye temperature of the compound was calculated from the defined Debye-Waller factors obtained from Mossbauer measurement at each experimental temperature and was found to depend on the temperature as well as on the HS fraction. The modification of the Debye-Waller factors in the HS and LS states for the HS fraction fro…
Pressure Effect on Spin Crossover in [Fe(phen)2(NCS)2] and [CrI2(depe)2]
2004
In the present article, we discuss the results of investigations of the influence of hydrostatic pressure (up to 1.2 GPa) on the spin transition behavior in [Fe(phen)2(NCS)2] polymorph II and [CrI2(depe)2]. It is demonstrated that pressure effect studies are very helpful in elucidating the mechanism of cooperative dynamic electronic structure phenomena accompanied by significant volume changes. Application of hydrostatic pressure serves as a tool for modifying the ligand field strength in a controlled manner.
Temperature and pressure effects on the spin state of ferric ions in the [Fe(sal2-trien)][Ni(dmit)2] spin crossover complex
2008
Abstract Thermal and pressure effects have been investigated on the [Fe(sal 2 -trien)][Ni(dmit) 2 ] spin crossover complex by means of Mossbauer spectroscopic, calorimetric, X-ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The complex displays a complete thermal spin transition between the S = 5 2 and S = 1 2 spin states of Fe III near 245 K with a hysteresis loop of ca. 30 K. This transition is characterised by a change of the enthalpy, Δ H HL =7 kJ/mol, entropy, Δ S HL =29 J/Kmol, and the unit cell volume, Δ V HL =15.4 A 3 . Under hydrostatic pressures up to 5.7 kbar the thermal transition shifts to higher temperatures by ca. 16 K/kbar. Interestingly, at a low applied pressure …
Modelling of two step high spin⇌low spin transitions using the cluster variation method
1998
Abstract A thermodynamic description of high spin (HS)⇌low spin (LS) transition curves beyond the Bragg–Williams approximation is given using the Kikuchi cluster variation method (CVM). Transition curves of unusual behaviour (i.e. two step transition) are reproduced by short range interaction energies which are present in addition to long range elastic interaction between the spin changing molecules. The correlations in the distribution of the spin changing centers can be expressed analytically. They give rise to a reduced mixing entropy which was found experimentally in compounds with two step transitions.
Cooperative Spin Transition in the Two-Dimensional Coordination Polymer [Fe(4,4′-bipyridine)2(NCX)2]·4CHCl3 (X = S, Se)
2011
Two new isostructural two-dimensional (2D) coordination polymers exhibiting spin crossover (SCO) behavior of formulation [Fe(4,4'-bipy)(2)(NCX)(2)]·4CHCl(3) (4,4'-bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine; X = S [1·4CHCl(3)], Se [2·4CHCl(3)]) have been synthesized and characterized, and both undergo cooperative spin transitions (ST). For 1·4CHCl(3) the ST takes place in two steps with critical temperatures of T(c1)(down) = 143.1 K, T(c2)(down) = 91.2 K, T(c1)(up) = 150.7 K, and T(c2)(up) = 112.2 K. 2·4CHCl(3) displays half ST characterized by T(c)(down) = 161.7 K and T(c)(up) = 168.3 K. The average enthalpy and entropy variations and cooperativity parameters associated with the ST have been estimated to be ΔH…
Vibrational properties of 1D- and 3D polynuclear spin crossover Fe(II) urea-triazoles polymer chains and quantification of intrachain cooperativity
2020
Abstract The vibrational dynamics of the iron centres in 1D and 3D spin crossover Fe(II) 4-alkyl-urea triazole chains have been investigated by synchrotron based nuclear inelastic scattering. For the 1D system, the partial density of phonon states has been modelled with density functional theory methods. Furthermore, spin dependent iron ligand distances and vibrational modes were obtained. The previously introduced intramolecular cooperativity parameter H coop (Rackwitz et al, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 2013, 15, 15450) has been determined to −31 kJ mol−1 for [Fe(n-Prtrzu)3(tosylate)2] and to +27 kJ mol−1 for [Fe(n-Prtrzu)3(BF4)2]. The change of sign in H coop is in line with the incomplete an…

Photomagnetic properties of an Iron(II) low-spin complex with an unusually long-lived metastable LIESST state
2007
A comprehensive study of the photomagnetic behavior of the [Fe(L222N5)(CN)2].H2O complex has been carried out. This complex is characterized by a low-spin (LS) iron(II)-metal center up to 400 K and exhibits at 10 K the well-known Light-Induced Excited Spin State Trapping (LIESST) effect. The critical LIESST temperature (T(LIESST)) has been measured to be 105 K. The kinetics of the transition from the metastable high-spin (HS) state to the low-spin state have been determined and used for reproducing the experimental T(LIESST) curve. This study represents a second example of a fully low-spin iron(II)-metal complex up to 400 K, which can be photoexcited at low temperature with an atypical long…
