Tuning the spin crossover above room temperature: iron(II) complexes of substituted and deprotonated 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine
2005
Abstract The complex [Fe(tzimpy)2](ClO4)2 · 2H2O (tzimpy = 2,4,6-tris-(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine) shows an abrupt spin crossover (S = 0–2 transition) above room temperature centered at Tc = 323 K with a hysteresis width of ΔT = 35 K. The neutral iron(II) complex with deprotonated bzimpy ligands (bzimpy = 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine) exhibits a gradual spin transition on the first heating with Tc = 424 K. There are irreversible changes between T = 503 and 523 K: the liberation of the crystal water, the color change (blue–green) followed by a structure change. Next thermal cycles are reproducible though, heating/cooling paths are different from the first heating.
Pressure Effect Investigations on the Spin Crossover Systems{Fe[H 2 B(pz) 2 ] 2 (bipy)} and {Fe[H 2 B(pz) 2 ] 2 (phen)}
2006
Pressure effect studies on the spin crossover behaviour of the mononuclear compounds {Fe[H2B(pz)2]2(bipy)}(1) and {Fe[H2B(pz)2]2(phen)}(2) have been performed in the range of 105 Pa–1.02 GPa at variable temperatures (100–310 K). Continuous spin transitions and displacement of its characteristic temperature has been observed for 1 with increasing pressure. Meanwhile the response of 2 under applied pressures is quite unexpected, and can only be understood in terms of a crystallographic phase transition or change in the bulk modulus of the compound.

Spin‐Crossover 2D Metal–Organic Frameworks with a Redox‐Active Ligand: [Fe(ttf‐adpy) 2 M(CN) 4 ]· n H 2 O (ttf‐adpy = 4‐Tetrathiafulvalenylcarboxamid…
2008
A new ttf (tetrathiofulvalene) ligand containing an amidopyridine moiety was synthesized and characterized. The electrochemical study of the 4-tetrathiofulvalenylcarboxamidopyridine (ttf–adpy) ligand showed two reversible oxidation processes at EI′1/2 = 0.08 V/Fc+–Fc and EII′1/2 = 0.26 V/Fc+–Fc. The crystal structure of [(ttf–adpyH)2Pt(CN)4] (1) was solved at 293 K, where 1 displays the triclinic space group P. The ttf–adpyH+ molecule is planar, and the bond lengths within the ttf core are in the usual range for neutral ttf moieties. The ttf–adpyH+ molecules and the [Pt(CN)4]2– anions organize in a three-dimensional network by means of hydrogen bonds and short S···S contacts. In the network…
Spin crossover and photomagnetism in dinuclear iron(II) compounds
2007
Abstract In this paper, we review recent work reported in the field of molecular spin crossover phenomena in dinuclear compounds. Following a comprehensive overview on the synthesis and properties of new iron(II) dinuclear compounds presenting the spin crossover phenomenon, we focus this review on recent efforts made in studying and understanding the photo-physical properties of the {[Fe(L)(NCX)2]2bpym} (L = bt or bpym, X = S or Se) family of compounds. Finally, literature on the different theoretical approaches treating the static and dynamic properties of dinuclear complexes presenting two-step thermal spin transition is briefly summarized.
A Novel Dinuclear Fe II Spin‐Crossover Complex Based on a 2,2‐Bipyrimidine Bridge Ligand: [Fe(CH 3 bipy)(NCS) 2 ] 2 bpym
2004
The dinuclear iron(II) complex {[Fe(CH3bipy)(NCS)2]2bpym} has been synthesised and its crystal structure determined at 293 K. The magnetic properties display intramolecular antiferromagnetic coupling at 1 bar (J = −4.2 cm−1), and the onset of a pressure-induced spin conversion is observed at 11 kbar. Magnetic field Mossbauer measurements have been carried out at 4.2 K, and indicate that the HS species correspond to [HS-HS] pairs. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004)
Towards Molecular Conductors with a Spin‐Crossover Phenomenon:Crystal Structures, Magnetic Properties and Mössbauer Spectra of[Fe(salten)Mepepy][M(dm…
2005
Three new iron(III) compounds of formula [Fe(salten)Mepepy][M(dmit)2]·CH3CN (M = Ni, Pd, Pt; H2salten = 4-azaheptamethylene-1,7-bis(salicylideneiminate); Mepepy = 1-(pyridin-4-yl)-2-(N-methylpyrrol-2-yl) ethane; dmit2– = 1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato) have been synthesised and the crystal structure of each compound has been solved at different temperatures. The structures consist of alternating layers of [M(dmit)2]– units and [Fe(salten)Mepepy] cations. In the Ni compound photo-isomerisation of the Mepepy ligand can be observed in dichloromethane solution. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of the compounds reveals a gradual S = 5/2 blabla S = 1/2 spin crossove…
Cooperativity in the Iron(II) Spin-Crossover Compound [Fe(ptz)6](PF6)2 under the Influence of External Pressure (ptz = 1-n-Propyltetrazole)
1997
The iron(II) spin-crossover compound [Fe(ptz)(6)](PF(6))(2) (ptz = 1-propyltetrazole) crystallizes in the triclinic space group Ponemacr;, with a = 10.6439(4) Å, b = 10.8685(4) Å, c = 11.7014(4) Å, alpha = 75.644(1) degrees, beta = 71.671(1) degrees, gamma = 60.815(1) degrees, and Z = 1. In [Fe(ptz)(6)](PF(6))(2), the thermal spin transition is extremely steep because of cooperative effects of elastic origin. The transition temperature at ambient pressure is 74(1) K. An external pressure of 1 kbar shifts the transition temperature to 102(1) K, corresponding to a stabilization of the low-spin state, which is smaller in volume. The volume difference between the high-spin and the low-spin stat…
Crystal structure, magnetic properties and Mössbauer studies of [Fe(qsal)2][Ni(dmit)2]
2007
Abstract A new compound of formula [Fe(qsal)2][Ni(dmit)2] (1) has been synthesised, structurally and magnetically characterised (qsalH = N-(8-quinolyl)salicylaldimine, dmit2− = 1,3-dithiol-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato). Its structural features and its magnetic behaviour were compared with those of [Fe(qsal)2]-based complexes, and more particularly [Fe(qsal)2][Ni(dmit)2] · 2CH3CN.

Mononuclear Complexes of Iron(II) Based on Symmetrical Tripodand Ligands: Novel Parent Systems for the Development of New Spin Crossover Metallomesog…
2011
The synthesis and characterization of a series of mononuclear tripodand-based FeII complexes by means of Mossbauer andUV/Vis spectroscopic as well as magnetic methods is reported. The complexes were obtained from the reactions of FeII salt with heterocyclic aldehydes (imd = imidazole-4(5)-carboxaldehyde, py = picolinaldehyde, or 6-Mepy = 6-methylpicolinaldehyde) and a symmetric triamine [tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, tame = 2,2,2-tris(aminomethyl)ethane, or tach = 1,3,5-cis,cis-cyclohexanetriamin]. Because of extreme rigidity of the capping triamine tach, the molecular structure of {Fe[tach(imd)3](BF4)2} (1) features an unprecedented tapered trigonal prismatic FeN6 polyhedron. The molecul…
