Abstract
AC susceptibility measurements of [FeIII(L5)(NCSe)] reveal a field supported slow magnetic relaxation. On cooling, the relaxation time of the high-frequency fraction decreases which is a sign of reciprocating thermal behaviour. The relaxation time for the low-frequency mode at T = 2.0 K is as high as τ(LF) = 2.0 s.

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
A series of mononuclear manganese(III) complexes [Mn(X-sal2-323)](ReO4) (X = 5 Cl, 1; X = 5 Br, 2; X = 3,5 Cl, 3; X = 3,5 Br, 4; and X = 5 NO2, 5), containing hexadentate ligands prepared using the condensation of N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)ethylenediamine and 5- or 3,5-substituted salicylaldehyde, has been synthesized. Variable temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic, spectroscopic, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical analyses, and theoretical calculations have been used to explore the role of various ligand substituents in the spin-state switching behavior of the prepared manganese(III) complexes. All five complexes consist of an analogous distorted octahedral monocationic MnN4O2 surrounding offered by the flexible hexadentate ligand and ReO4- as the counter anion. However, a disordered water molecule was detected in complex 4. Complexes 1 (X = 5 Cl) and 5 (X = 5 NO2) show gradual and complete spin-state switching between the high-spin (HS) (S = 2) and the low-spin (LS) (S = 1) state with T1/2 values of 146 and 115 K respectively, while an abrupt and complete transition at 95 K was observed for complex 2 (X = 5 Br). Alternatively, complex 3 (X = 3, 5 Cl) exhibits an incomplete and sharp transition between the HS and LS states at 104 K, while complex 4 (X = 3, 5 Br) (desolvated) remains almost LS up to 300 K and then displays gradual and incomplete SCO at a higher temperature. The nature of the spin-state switch and transition temperature suggest that the structural effect (cooperativity) plays a more significant role in comparison with the electronic effect coming from various substituents (Cl, Br, and NO2), which is further supported by the detailed structural, electrochemical, and theoretical studies.

Abstract
The self-assembly of a redox-active ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT)-terpyridine-based tridentate ligand and cobalt(II) unit with different counteranions has led to a series of new cobalt(II) complexes [Co(L)2](X)2 (X = BF4 (1), ClO4 (2), and BPh4 (3)) (L = 4'-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-2,2':6',2″-terpyridine). The impact of various counteranions on stabilization and spin-state switching of the cobalt(II) center was explored through detailed magneto-structural investigation using variable temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic, spectroscopic, electrochemical, and spectroelectrochemical studies. All three complexes 1-3 consisted of an isostructural dicationic distorted octahedral CoN6 coordination environment offered by the two L ligands in a bis-meridional fashion and BF4-, ClO4-, and BPh4- as a counteranion, respectively. Complex 2 with ClO4- counteranion showed a reversible, gradual, and nearly complete spin-state switching between low-spin (LS) (S = 1/2) and high-spin (HS) (S = 3/2) states, while an incomplete spin-state switching behavior was observed for complexes 1 (BF4-) and 3 (BPh4-) in the measured temperature range of 350-2 K. The non-covalent cation-anion interactions played a significant role in stabilizing the spin-state in 1-3. Additionally, complexes 1-3 also exhibited interesting redox-stimuli-based reversible paramagnetic HS cobalt(II) (S = 3/2) to diamagnetic LS cobalt(III) (S = 0) conversion, offering an alternate way to switch the magnetic properties.

Abstract
Four mononuclear manganese(III) complexes coordinated with photo-active hexadentate azobenzene ligands, [Mn(5azo-sal2-323)](X) (X = Cl, 1; X = BF4, 2; X = ClO4, 3; X = PF6, 4), were prepared. The impact of various counter anions on the stabilization and switching of the spin state of the manganese(III) center was explored through detailed magneto-structural investigation using variable temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic, spectroscopic, and spectroelectrochemical studies, along with theoretical calculations. All four complexes consisted of an isostructural monocationic distorted octahedral MnN4O2 coordination environment offered by the hexadentate ligand and Cl-, BF4-, ClO4-, and PF6- as counter anions respectively. Complex 1 with a spherical Cl- counter anion showed a reversible and gradual spin-state switching between low-spin (LS) (S = 1) and high-spin (HS) (S = 2) states above 400 K, where non-covalent cation-anion interactions played a significant role in stabilizing the LS state. While, irrespective of the shape of the counter anion, complexes 2-4 remained in the HS state throughout the measured temperature range of 300-2 K, where strong π-π interaction between the azobenzene motifs among cationic units played a substantial role in stabilizing the HS state. Furthermore, magnetic data analyses revealed significantly large zero-field splitting in the S = 1 state for 1 (D = 19.4 cm-1, E/D = 0.008) in comparison with that in the S = 2 state for 2-4 (D = 3.99-4.97 cm-1, E/D = 0.002-0.195). Spectroelectrochemical investigations revealed the quasi-reversible reduction and oxidation of the manganese(III) center to manganese(II) and manganese(IV), respectively. A detailed theoretical calculation at the DFT and CASSCF level of theory was carried out to better understand the magneto-structural correlation.

Abstract
A series of three new cyanide-bridged [FeCo] molecular square complexes, namely, {[Fe(Tp*)(CN)3]2[Co(L)2]2}(BF4)2·2DMF (L = bik (1), bik* (2), and vbik (3); Tp* = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate, bik = bis(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ketone, bik* = bis(1-ethyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ketone, and vbik = bis(1-vinyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)ketone; DMF = dimethylformamide) were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and by magnetic, electrochemical, and spectroscopic measurements. Magnetic studies reveal that all three complexes exhibit temperature-induced metal-to-metal electron transfer (MMET) from a high-spin Co(II) center to a low-spin Fe(III) center, transforming a high-temperature paramagnetic {FeIIILS-CN-CoIIHS} ground state into a low-temperature diamagnetic {FeIILS-CN-CoIIILS} state with a decrease in the temperature from 300 to 100 K. Complexes 1 and 3 show the interconversion of the paramagnetic {FeIIILS-CN-CoIIHS} ground state into a diamagnetic {FeIILS-CN-CoIIILS} state in a single-step transition with T1/2 values of 180 and 186 K, respectively, while a two-step MMET with T1/2 value of 214 and 178 K was observed for complex 2.

Abstract
Three mononuclear manganese(iii) complexes based on flexible hexadentate ligands obtained from the condensation of N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)ethylenediamine and salicylaldehyde or salicylaldehyde with substitutions at the 5 or 3,5 positions, namely [Mn(X-sal2-323)](BPh4) (X = 5 H, 1; X = 5 Br, 2, and X = 3,5 Br, 3) have been synthesized. The impact of ligand substituents has been studied by variable temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, and magnetic, spectroscopic and electrochemical investigations. The complexes have an analogous monocationic MnN4O2 surrounding offered by the flexible hexadentate ligand in a distorted octahedral geometry. Complex 1 remains in the high spin state over the entire temperature range, while complex 2 shows a reversible and complete two-step thermo-induced spin-state switching. An incomplete spin-state switching from a high spin to an intermediate high-spin low-spin (1 : 1) state was observed for complex 3. Single-crystal X-ray structural studies show the presence of three different spin states in 2 during the occurrence of the spin-state switching process. Electrochemical investigations showed that the reduced state of manganese(iii) centers in 3 is easily accessible in comparison to complexes 1 and 2.

Abstract
The self-assembly of a macrocyclic tetradentate ligand, cobalt(II) tetrafluoroborate, and nonlinear pseudohalides (dicyanamide and tricyanomethanide) has led to two cobalt(II) complexes, {[Co(L)(μ1,5-dca)](BF4)·MeOH}n (1) and [Co2(L)2(μ1,5-tcm)2](BF4)2 (2) (L = N,N'-di-tert-butyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)pyridinophane; dca- = dicyanamido; tcm- = tricyanomethanido). Both complexes were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, spectroscopic, magnetic, and electrochemical studies. Structural analyses revealed that 1 displays a one-dimensional (1D) coordination polymer containing [Co(L)]2+ repeating units bridged by μ1,5-dicyanamido groups in cis positions, while 2 represents a discreate dinuclear cobalt(II) molecule bridged by two μ1,5-tricyanomethanido groups in a cis conformation. Both complexes have a CoN6 coordination environment around each cobalt center offered by the tetradentate ligand and cis coordinating bridging ligands. Complex 1 exhibits a high-spin (S = 3/2) state of cobalt(II) in the temperature range of 2-300 K with a weak ferromagnetic coupling between two dicyanamido-bridged cobalt(II) centers. Interestingly, complex 2 exhibits reversible spin-state switching associated with spin-spin coupling. Complexes 1 and 2 also exhibit interesting redox-stimuli-based reversible paramagnetic high-spin cobalt(II) to diamagnetic low-spin cobalt(III) conversion, offering an additional way to switch magnetic properties. A detailed theoretical calculation was consistent with the stated results.

Abstract
A mononuclear manganese(iii) complex containing a flexible hexadentate chelating ligand has been prepared and characterized by performing, at various temperatures, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and magnetic, spectroscopic, and electrochemical studies. The complex was shown to consist of an MnN4O2 octahedral coordination environment, and to exhibit reversible two-step thermally induced spin-state switching, a gradual one at 168 K and an abrupt one at 103 K. Structural analyses revealed the existence of three spin-states, namely high-spin, low-spin, and intermediate states, during the spin-state switching process. Electrochemistry studies showed the quasi-reversible reduction and oxidation of the manganese(iii) center with a comparatively easily accessible reduced state.
