Abstract
Spin crossover (SCO) has long been a hot topic in the field of molecular magnetism owing to its unique bistability character. Rational control of thermal hysteresis and transition temperature (T1/2) is crucial for their practical applications, which rely on precise manipulation of the substituents of SCO coordinating ligands and molecular packing interactions. In this study, we designed two different bridging ligands (2-FDPB: 4,4'-(2-fluoro-1,4-phenylene)dipyridine; 2,3-FDPB: 4,4'-(2,3-difluoro-1,4-phenylene)dipyridine) featuring one and two fluoro substitution on the central benzene ring and applied a Schiff base-like equatorial tetradentate ligand {diethyl(E,E)-2,2'-[4,5-difluoro-1,2-phenyl-bis(iminomethylidyne)]bis(3-oxobutanoate)-(2-)-N,N',O3,O3'} (H2L) to coordinate with the FeII ion. Two FeII-coordination chain polymers [FeII(L)(2,3-FDPB)]·0.25CH2Cl2 (1) and [FeII(L)(2-FDPB)]·0.5CH3OH (2) were obtained. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic P21/n space group with only one FeII center, while 2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1̄ space group with two independent FeII centers. Unlike the identical 2D layer stacking in 1, 2 exhibited alternating stacking of the extending 2D layers and meshed chains. Magnetic measurements revealed the typical thermally induced spin crossover behavior (SCO): 1 exhibited a 41 K-wide thermal hysteresis with transition temperatures of T1/2↑ = 245 K and T1/2↓ = 204 K, while 2 showed a higher transition temperature (T1/2 = 330 K) with no thermal hysteresis. Magneto-structural correlation studies suggest that the electron-withdrawing effect present in the fluoro substituents does not have a significant impact on the SCO behaviors. Despite the fluoro substituents having a similar atomic radius of hydrogen atoms, variations in the number of these substituents can alter the crystallization behavior of these complexes, which in turn affects the solvents, molecular stacking patterns, and intermolecular interactions, ultimately influencing the SCO behaviors.

Abstract
Construction of spin-crossover (SCO) materials is very appealing for applications such as molecular switches and information storage. This study focuses on the design of Fe(II) complexes using N,N'-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine-based ligands with an N4 structure for SCO material development. By incorporating para-substituted benzene groups into the ligand's pyridine moiety, two polymorphs, α and β, were obtained, both exhibiting SCO activity. Notably, the β polymorph displayed a spin crossover temperature of 270 K, which is approaching room temperature. Structural analyses were conducted to compare the differences between the polymorphs, along with a literature review of related complexes, providing insights into the characteristics of SCO behavior.

Abstract
A series of two-dimensional (2D) spin-crossover coordination polymers (SCO-CPs) [FeII(TPE)(NCX)2]·solv (1: X = BH3, solv = H2O·2CH3OH·DMF; 2: X = Se, solv = H2O·2CH3OH·0.5DMF; 3: X = S, solv = H2O·2CH3OH·0.5DMF) were synthesized by employing 1,1,2,2-tetra(pyridin-4-yl)ethene (TPE) and pseudohalide (NCX-) coligands. Magnetic measurements indicated that complexes 1-3 exhibited SCO behaviors with diminishing thermal hysteresis (7/4/0 K) upon decreasing the ligand-field strength. The critical temperatures (Tc) during spin transition were found to be inversely proportional to the coordination ability parameters (a™) with a linear correlation. The guest effect was also investigated in the solvent-exchanged phases 1-SE/2-SE/3-SE wherein the DMF molecules were replaced by methanol molecules. Compared with 1-3, 1-SE/2-SE/3-SE displayed more abrupt and complete single-step SCO behaviors but narrower thermal hysteretic loops. The results reported here demonstrate that the Tc values of these two families were dominated by the ligand-field strength of the NCX- anions (NCBH3 > NCSe > NCS), whereas the guest effect only modulated the kinetic factor of the SCO nature in this system.

Abstract
Two acyclic tetradentate Schiff base ligands, HLX-OH (X = H and Br), were synthesised by 2:1 condensation of either 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde or 5-bromo-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde and 1,3-diamino-2-propanol and then used to prepare six mononuclear complexes, [FeII(HLX-OH)(NCE)2], with three different NCE co-ligands (E = BH3, Se, and S). The apparent solution spin crossover switching temperature, T1/2, of these 6 complexes, determined by Evans method NMR studies, is tuned by several factors: (a) substituent X present at the 5 position of the pyridine ring of the ligand, (b) E present in the NCE co-ligand, (c) solvent employed (P'), and (d) potentially also by speciation effects. In CD3CN, for the pair of NCE = NCBH3 complexes, when X = H, the complex is practically LS (extrapolated T1/2 ∼624 K), whereas when X = Br, it is far lower (373 K), which implies a higher field strength when X = H than when it is Br. The same trend, X = H results in a higher apparent T1/2 than X = Br, is seen for the other two pairs of complexes, with E = Se (429 > 351 K, ΔT1/2 = 78 K) or S (361 > 342 K, ΔT1/2 = 19 K). For the family of three X = Br complexes, the change of E from BH3 (373 K) to Se (351 K) to S (342 K) leads to an overall ΔT1/2(apparent) = 31 K, whereas the decreases are far more pronounced in the X = H family (BH3 ∼624 > Se 429 > S 361 K). Changing the solvent used from CD3CN to (CD3)2CO and CD3NO2, for [FeII(HLBr-OH)(NCE)2] with either E = BH3 or S, revealed excellent, and very similar, positive linear correlations (R2 = 0.99) of increasing solvent polarity index P' (from 5 to 7) with increasing apparent T1/2 of the complex (E = BH3 gave T1/2 300 < 373 < 451 K , ΔT1/2 = 151 K; E = S gave T1/2 288 < 342 < 427 K, ΔT1/2 = 147 K). Several other solvent parameters were also correlated with the apparent T1/2 of these complexes (R2 = 0.74-0.96). Excellent linear correlations (R2 = 0.99) are also obtained with the coordination ability (aTM) of the three NCE co-ligands with the apparent T1/2 in both families of compounds, [FeII(HLX-OH)(NCE)2] where X = H or Br. The 15N NMR chemical shifts of the nitrogen atom in the three NCE co-ligands (direct measurement) show modest correlations (R2 = 0.74 for LH-OH family and 0.80 for LBr-OH family) with the apparent T1/2 values of the corresponding complexes.

Abstract
Polynuclear molecular clusters offer an opportunity to design new hierarchical switchable materials with collective properties, based on variation of the chemical composition, size, shapes, and overall building blocks organization. In this study, we rationally designed and constructed an unprecedented series of cyanido-bridged nanoclusters realizing new undecanuclear topology: FeII[FeII(bzbpen)]6[WV(CN)8]2[WIV(CN)8]2·18MeOH (1), NaI[CoII(bzbpen)]6[WV(CN)8]3[WIV(CN)8]·28MeOH (2), NaI[NiII(bzbpen)]6[WV(CN)8]3[WIV(CN)8]·27MeOH (3), and CoII[CoII(R/S-pabh)2]6[WV(CN)8]2[WIV(CN)8]2·26MeOH [4R and 4S; bzbpen = N1,N2-dibenzyl-N1,N2-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine; R/S-pabh = (R/S)-N-(1-naphthyl)-1-(pyridin-2-yl)methanimine], of size up to 11 nm3, ca. 2.0 × 2.2 × 2.5 nm (1-3) and ca. 1.4 × 2.5 × 2.5 nm (4). 1, 2, and 4 exhibit site selectivity for the spin states and spin transition related to the structural speciation based on subtle exogenous and endogenous effects imposed on similar but distinguishable 3d metal-ion-coordination moieties. 1 exhibits a mid-temperature-range spin-crossover (SCO) behavior that is more advanced than the previously reported SCO clusters based on octacyanidometallates and an onset of SCO behavior close to room temperature. The latter feature is also present in 2 and 4, which suggests the emergence of CoII-centered SCO not observed in previous bimetallic cyanido-bridged CoII-WV/IV systems. In addition, reversible switching of the SCO behavior in 1 via a single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation during desolvation was also documented.

Self-assembly FeII complexes of phenazine (Phen), quinoxaline (Qxn), and 4,4'-trimethylenedipyridine (Tmp) with tetrahedral building blocks of [HgII (XCN)4 ]2- (X=S or Se) formed six new high-dimensional frameworks with the general formula of [Fe(L)m ][Hg(XCN)4 ]⋅solvents (L=Phen, m/X=2/S, 1; L=Qxn, m/X=2/S, 2; L=Qxn, m/X=1/S, 3; L=Qxn, m/X=1/Se, 3-Se; L=Tmp, m/X=1/S, 4; and L=Tmp, m/X=1/Se, 4-Se). 1, 3, and 3-Se show an intense sub-terahertz (sub-THz) absorbance of around 0.60 THz due to vibrations of the solvent molecules coordinated to the FeII ions and crystallization organic molecules. In addition, crystals of 1, 4, and 4-Se display low-frequency Raman scattering with exceptionally low values of 0.44, 0.51, and 0.53 THz, respectively. These results indicate that heavy metal FeII -HgII systems are promising platforms to construct sub-THz absorbers.

Abstract
Hysteretic spin crossover in coordination complexes of 3d-metal ions represents one of the most spectacular phenomena of molecular bistability. In this paper we describe a self-assembly of pyrazine (pz) and Fe(BH3CN)2 that afforded the new 2D coordination polymer [Fe(pz)2(BH3CN)2]∞. It undergoes an abrupt, hysteretic spin crossover (SCO) with a T1/2 of 338 K (heating) and 326 K (cooling) according to magnetic susceptibility measurements. Mössbauer spectroscopy revealed a complete transition between the low-spin (LS) and the high-spin (HS) states of the iron centers. This LS-to-HS transition induced an increase of the unit cell volume by 10.6%. Meanwhile, a modulation of multiple [C-Hδ+···Hδ--B] dihydrogen bonds stimulates a contraction in direction c (2.2%). The simplicity of the synthesis, mild temperatures of transition, a pronounced thermochromism, stability upon thermal cycling, a striking volume expansion upon SCO, and an easy processability to composite films make this new complex an attractive material for switchable components of diverse applications.

Abstract
Three isostructural complexes with the formula [Fe(L5Me)(NCE)2]: L5Me = N,N'-bis(5-methyl-2-pyridylmethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine and E = S (1-S), E = Se (1-Se), E = BH3 (1-BH 3 ) have been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal x-ray diffraction, magnetic susceptibility and DSC studies. All the three derivatives are spin crossover (SCO) active, showing complete one-step spin conversion. The SCO midpoint temperatures (T 1/2) are 193 K for 1-S, 226 K for 1-Se, and 330 K for 1-BH 3 , which are among the highest values for the homologous Fe(II)-NCE complexes with comparable tetradentate ligands. The almost linear Fe-N ≡ C(E) angles are consistent with the strong ligand field (LF) strength imposed by these NCE- co-ligands. Strong hydrogen-like bonding N-H…E was observed to connect the molecules into 2D supramolecular sheets parallel to the bc plane. However, such supramolecular interaction is not sufficient enough to transmit strong cooperativity. A discussion on the factors governing the LF strength and the cooperativity has been made, based on the comparison of analogous complexes and also based on UV-vis spectroscopy studies of the Ni(II) complexes.
