Thermal, Pressure and Light Induced Spin Transition in the Two-Dimensional Coordination Polymer [Fe(pmd)2[Cu(CN)2]2]
2008
[EN] A complete structural, calorimetric, and magnetic characterisation of the 2D coordination spin crossover polymer {Fe(pmd)(2)[Cu(CN)(2)](2)} is reported. The crystal structure has been investigated below room temperature at 180 K and 90 K, and at 30 K after irradiating the sample at low temperature with green light ( lambda = 532 nm). The volume cell contraction through the thermal spin transition is only 18 angstrom(3) which is lower than the usually observed value of around 25-30 angstrom(3) while the average Fe-N bond distances decrease by the typical value of about 0.19 angstrom. The structural data of the irradiated state indicate that the high spin state is well induced since the …
Pressure-induced cooperative spin transition in ironII 2D coordination polymers: room-temperature visible spectroscopic study.
2011
For the 2D coordination polymers [Fe(3-Fpy)(2)M(II)(CN)(4)] (M(II) = Ni, Pd, Pt), the pressure-induced spin crossover behavior has been investigated at 298 K by monitoring the distinct optical properties associated with each spin state. Cooperative first-order spin transition characterized by a piezohysteresis loop ca. 0.1 GPa wide was observed for the three derivatives. Application of the mean field regular solution theory has enabled estimation of the cooperative parameter, Γ(p), and the enthalpy, ΔH(HL)(p), associated with the spin transition for each derivative. These values, found in the intervals 6.8-7.9 and 18.6-20.8 kJ mol(-1), respectively, are consistent with those previously repo…
Spin transition in heptanuclear star-shaped iron(III)–antimony(V) NCS- and CN-bridged compounds
2009
Abstract The precursor [FeIII(L)Cl] (LH2 = N,N′-bis(2′-hydroxy-benzyliden)-1,6-diamino-3-azahexane) has been prepared and Mossbauer spectroscopy assigned a high-spin (S = 5/2) state at room temperature. The precursor is combined with the bridging units [SbV(X)6]− (X = CN−, NCS−) to yield star-shaped heptanuclear clusters [(LFeIII–X)6SbV]Cl5. The star-shaped compounds are in general high-spin systems at room temperature. On cooling to 20 K some of the iron(III) centers switch to the low-spin state as indicated by Mossbauer spectroscopy, i.e. multiple electronic transitions. While the cyano-bridged complex performs a multiple spin transition the thiocyanate-compound shows no significant popul…
Spin-Transition in [Fe(II)(2,6-Bis-(Benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine)2] (CIO4)2: Hysteresis Effect Dependent on the Matrix
1999
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
2000
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.

<p>A familly of chemically robust hybrid [Fe(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4)@SiO2nanoparticles (NPs) presenting different sizes (from ca. 90 to 28 nm) and an ultrathin silica shell (< 3 nm) have been prepared. All NPs present a characteristic abrupt spin transition with a subsequent decrease in the width of the thermal hysteresis upon reducing the NP size.<br></p>
Spin Transition Molecular Materials: New Sensors
2002
This short review article concerns a new family of iron(II) spin transition chain compounds containing 4-R-1,2,4-triazole derivatives whose properties have been followed by several physical techniques. A clear evidence of the LIESST effect at 20 K has been found for one of these materials by 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. Potential applications in terms of pressure and thermal sensors are discussed.
Crystal structure and magnetic properties of (tris{4-[1-(2-methoxyethyl)imidazol-2-yl]-3-azabut-3-enyl}amine)iron(II) bis(hexafluoridophosph…
2019
The title compound, [Fe(C27H41N10O3)](PF6)2, is an example of an iron(II) spin-crossover compound. In this compound, C⋯F and CH⋯F/O contacts, present between the cations and anions, extend the structure into a three-dimensional supramolecular network.
Optical investigation of spin-crossover in cobalt(II) bis-terpy complexes
2007
Abstract The spin transition of the [Co(terpy) 2 ] 2+ complex (terpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine) is analysed based on experimental data from optical spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The single crystal absorption spectrum of [Co(terpy) 2 ](ClO 4 ) 2 shows an asymmetric absorption band at 14 400 cm −1 with an intensity typical for a spin-allowed d–d transition and a temperature behaviour typical for a thermal spin transition. The single crystal absorption spectra of suggest that in this compound, the complex is essentially in the high-spin state at all temperatures. However, the increase in intensity observed in the region of the low-spin MLCT transition with increasing te…
High-spin → low-spin relaxation in the two-step spincrossover compound [Fe(pic)3]Cl2EtOH (pic = 2-picolylamine)
1998
Abstract The spin-crossover compound [Fe(pic) 3 ]Cl 2 EtOH (pic = 2-picolylamine) shows an unusual two-step spin transition. This is thought to be caused by specific nearest-neighbour interactions and short-range correlations and requires a theoretical treatment of the elastic interactions between the spin-changing molecules beyond the mean-field approximation. Such short-range correlations also influence the high-spin → low-spin relaxation following the light-induced population of the high-spin state at cryogenic temperatures, leading to characteristic deviations from the predictions of a mean-field treatment. These deviations are directly observable by comparison of the full and unperturb…
