Abstract
Homoleptic complexes [Fe(4bt)3](ClO4)2 (1), [Fe(2bt)3](ClO4)2 (2), and [Fe(3tpH)3](ClO4)2 (3) were obtained by a reaction between the Fe(II) precursor salt and the corresponding thiazole-based bidentate ligand (L = 4bt = 4,4'-bithiazole, 2bt = 2,2'-bithiazole, 3tpH = 3-(thiazol-2-yl)pyrazole). X-ray crystal structure determination revealed crystallization of solvent-free complex 1, a solvate 2·MeOH, and a co-crystal 3·2(3tpH). The crystal packing of all these complexes is dominated by one-dimensional interactions between the [Fe(L)3]2+ cations. These interactions are stronger in 2·MeOH and 3·2(3tpH), leading to cooperative and slightly hysteretic transitions between the high-spin and low-spin electronic configurations at ∼235 K and 159 K, respectively. In contrast, weaker intermolecular interactions in 1 result in a gradual spin crossover above 300 K, with the maximum fraction of the HS state ∼25% achieved at 400 K. Complexes 2 and 3·2(3tpH) exhibit light-induced excited spin state trapping (LIESST) under irradiation with white light or a 532 nm laser at 5 K. After the photoexcitation, the trapped metastable HS state relaxes to the ground LS state with the average relaxation temperature of 81 K and 68 K, respectively. Examination of the relaxation dynamics by optical absorption spectroscopy on a single crystal of 3·2(3tpH) revealed the sigmoidal shape of the relaxation curves at lower temperatures, attributed to cooperative effects, as well as a plateau at ∼10% of the HS fraction at intermediate temperatures, hinting at a more complex mechanism for the relaxation of the LIESST phase in this material.

Abstract
Organic radicals are widely used as linkers or ligands to synthesize molecular magnetic materials. However, studies regarding the molecular anisotropies of radical-based magnetic materials and their multifunctionalities are rare. Herein, a photoisomerizable diarylethene ligand was used to form {[CoIII(3,5-DTSQ·-)(3,5-DTCat2-)]2(6F-DAE-py2)}·3CH3CN·H2O (o-1·3CH3CN·H2O, 6F-DAE-py2 = 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5-(4-pyridyl)-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene), a valence-tautomeric (VT) coordination polymer. We directly observed dual radicals for a single crystal using high-field/-frequency (∼13.3 T and ∼360 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy along the c-axis, which was further confirmed by angle-dependent Q-band EPR spectroscopy. Moreover, a conductive anomaly close to the VT transition temperature was observed only when probes were attached at the ab plane of the single crystal, indicative of synergy between valence tautomerism and conductivity. Structural anisotropy studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that this synergy is due to electron transfer associated with valence tautomerism. This study presents the first example of dual-radical-based molecular anisotropy and charge-transfer-induced conductive anisotropy in a photoswitchable coordination polymer.

Abstract
Spin-crossover (SCO) active iron(II) complexes are an integral class of switchable and bistable molecular materials. Spin-state switching properties of the SCO complexes have been studied in the bulk and single-molecule levels to progress toward fabricating molecule-based switching and memory elements. Supramolecular SCO complexes featuring anchoring groups for metallic electrodes, for example, gold (Au), are ideal candidates to study spin-state switching at the single-molecule level. In this study, we report on the spin-state switching characteristics of supramolecular iron(II) complexes 1 and 2 composed of functional 4-([2,2'-bithiophen]-5-ylethynyl)-2,6-di(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine (L1) and 4-(2-(5-(5-hexylthiophen-2-yl)thiophen-2-yl)ethynyl)-2,6-di(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine (L2) ligands, respectively. Density functional theory (DFT) studies revealed stretching-induced spin-state switching in a molecular junction composed of complex 1, taken as a representative example, and gold electrodes. Single-molecule conductance traces revealed the unfavorable orientation of the complexes in the junctions to demonstrate the spin-state dependence of the conductance.

[PMID: 34476058 PMCID: PMC8372557 DOI: 10.1039/d1sc02843j] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2021] [Accepted: 07/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Co-crystallization of the prominent Fe(ii) spin-crossover (SCO) cation, [Fe(3-bpp)2]2+ (3-bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine), with a fractionally charged TCNQδ− radical anion has afforded a hybrid complex [Fe(3-bpp)2](TCNQ)3·5MeCN (1·5MeCN, where δ = −0.67). The partially desolvated material shows semiconducting behavior, with the room temperature conductivity σRT = 3.1 × 10−3 S cm−1, and weak modulation of conducting properties in the region of the spin transition. The complete desolvation, however, results in the loss of hysteretic behavior and a very gradual SCO that spans the temperature range of 200 K. A related complex with integer-charged TCNQ− anions, [Fe(3-bpp)2](TCNQ)2·3MeCN (2·3MeCN), readily loses the interstitial solvent to afford desolvated complex 2 that undergoes an abrupt and hysteretic spin transition centered at 106 K, with an 11 K thermal hysteresis. Complex 2 also exhibits a temperature-induced excited spin-state trapping (TIESST) effect, upon which a metastable high-spin state is trapped by flash-cooling from room temperature to 10 K. Heating above 85 K restores the ground-state low-spin configuration. An approach to improve the structural stability of such complexes is demonstrated by using a related ligand 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2′-yl)pyridine (bzimpy) to obtain [Fe(bzimpy)2](TCNQ)6·2Me2CO (4) and [Fe(bzimpy)2](TCNQ)5·5MeCN (5), both of which exist as LS complexes up to 400 K and exhibit semiconducting behavior, with σRT = 9.1 × 10−2 S cm−1 and 1.8 × 10−3 S cm−1, respectively. Co-crystallization of the cationic complex [Fe(3-bpp)2]2+ with fractionally charged TCNQδ− anions (0 < δ < 1) affords semiconducting spin-crossover (SCO) materials. The abruptness of SCO is strongly dependent on the interstitial solvent content.![]()

Abstract
We report the synthesis, magnetic properties, and transport properties of paramagnetic metal complexes, [Co(DMF)4(TCNQ)2](TCNQ)2 (1), [La(DMF)8(TCNQ)](TCNQ)5 (2), and [Nd(DMF)7(TCNQ)](TCNQ)5 (3) (DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide, TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane). All three compounds contain fractionally charged TCNQδ- anions (0 < δ < 1) and mononuclear complex cations in which the coordination environment of a metal center includes several DMF molecules and one or two terminally coordinated TCNQδ- anions. The coordinated TCNQδ- anions participate in π-π stacking interactions with noncoordinated TCNQδ- anions, forming columnar substructures that provide efficient charge-transporting pathways. As a result, temperature-dependent conductivity measurements demonstrate that all three compounds exhibit semiconducting behavior.
