The first coordination sphere of spin crossover material has been comprehended to play a dominant role to its magnetic property. However, the intermolecular interactions, such as π···π interaction and hydrogen bonding, also play a crucial factor. The contents of the solvent in a 2D layer structure, Fe (μ-atrz)(μ-pyz)(NCS)2·nH2O where n=4, 2 and 0, has been reported to be able to affect the spin transition behavior dramatically.[1] As loss of solvent molecules, the inter-layer distance becomes shorter and the transition temperature shifts to lower temperature and accompanies a larger hysteresis loop. To further understand the correlation between the inter-layer distance and magnetic property, the guest ab/desorption and pressure-induced synchrotron powder diffraction experiments were performed at BL01C2 in NSRRC. Based on the cyclic TGA measurements, the guest molecules, H2O, MeOH and EtOH, all can be removed and retaken repeatedly. The pressure-induced PXRD experiment was performed using a Boehler-Almax design diamond anvil cell (DAC). The detail structural studies attempt to understand not only the spin state changes from HS (high spin state) to LS (low spin state) but also the cooperative effect through the inter-layer distance.

This work explores the effect of lattice solvent on the observed solid-state spin-transition of a previously reported dinuclear Fe(II) triple helicate series 1–3 of the general form [FeII2L3](BF4)4(CH3CN)n, where L is the Schiff base condensation product of imidazole-4-carbaldehyde with 4,4-diaminodiphenylmethane (L1), 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfide (L2) and 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl ether (L3) respectively, and 1 is the complex when L = L1, 2 when L = L2 and 3 when L = L3 (Craze, A.R.; Sciortino, N.F.; Bhadbhade, M.M.; Kepert, C.J.; Marjo, C.E.; Li, F. Investigation of the Spin Crossover Properties of Three Dinuclear Fe(II) Triple Helicates by Variation of the Steric Nature of the Ligand Type. Inorganics. 2017, 5 (4), 62). Desolvation of 1 and 2 during measurement resulted not only in a decrease in T1/2 and completeness of spin-crossover (SCO) but also a change in the number of steps in the spin-profile. Compounds 1 and 2 were observed to change from a two-step 70% complete transition when fully solvated, to a single-step half complete transition upon desolvation. The average T1/2 value of the two-steps in the solvated materials was equivalent to the single T1/2 of the desolvated sample. Upon solvent loss, the magnetic profile of 3 experienced a transformation from a gradual SCO or weak antiferromagnetic interaction to a single half-complete spin-transition. Variable temperature single-crystal structures are presented and the effects of solvent molecules are also explored crystallographically and via a Hirshfeld surface analysis. The spin-transition profiles of 1–3 may provide further insight into previous discrepancies in dinuclear triple helicate SCO research reported by the laboratories of Hannon and Gütlich on analogous systems (Tuna, F.; Lees, M. R.; Clarkson, G. J.; Hannon, M. J. Readily Prepared Metallo-Supramolecular Triple Helicates Designed to Exhibit Spin-Crossover Behaviour. Chem. Eur. J. 2004, 10, 5737–5750 and Garcia, Y.; Grunert, C.

Spin state switching on external stimuli is a phenomenon with wide applicability ranging from molecular electronics to gas activation in nanoporous frameworks. Here we model spin crossover as a function of hydrostatic pressure in octahedrally coordinated transition metal centers by applying a field of effective nuclear forces that compress the molecule towards its centroid. For spin crossover in first-row transition metals coordinated by hydrogen, nitrogen, and carbon monoxide, we find the pressure required for spin transition to be a function of ligand position in the spectrochemical sequence. While pressures on the order of 1 GPa are required to flip spins in homogeneously ligated octahedral sites, we demonstrate a five-fold decrease in spin transition pressure for the archetypal strong field ligand carbon monoxide in octahedrally coordinated Fe<sup>2+</sup> in [Fe(II)(NH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>5</sub>CO]<sup>2+</sup>.
