Counter anion dependent gradual spin transition in a 1D cobalt(II) coordination polymer

TLDR
The gradual spin transition in ·PF6 in contrast to an abrupt spin transition with a hysteresis loop in ·ClO4 has been analysed in terms of structural factors.
Abstract
One Co(II) SCO coordination polymer [Co(enbzpy)(μ1,5-dca)]n(PF6)n (1·PF6) has been isolated and characterised structurally and magnetostructurally. The properties of 1·PF6 are compared with the reported perchlorate analogue [Co(enbzpy)(μ1,5-dca)]n(ClO4)n (1·ClO4). The gradual spin transition in 1·PF6 in contrast to an abrupt spin transition with a hysteresis loop in 1·ClO4 has been analysed in terms of structural factors.

Switchable cobalt coordination polymers: Spin crossover and valence tautomerism

TL;DR: A number of switchable cobalt coordination polymers (CPs) have been constructed using polytopic nitrogen-donor linking ligands as mentioned in this paper, where the transition from low-spin to high-spin is induced by temperature variation.

Spin-crossover materials : properties and applications

Abstract: The phenomenon of spin-crossover has a large impact on the physical properties of a solid material, including its colour, magnetic moment, and electrical resistance. Some materials also show a structural phase change during the transition. Several practical applications of spin-crossover materials have been demonstrated including display and memory devices, electrical and electroluminescent devices, and MRI contrast agents. Switchable liquid crystals, nanoparticles, and thin films of spin-crossover materials have also been achieved.

Structure:function relationships in molecular spin-crossover complexes

TL;DR: This critical review presents a survey of molecular spin-crossover compounds with good availability of crystallographic data and indicates that changes in molecular shape between the high- and low-spin states can play an important role in determining the existence and the cooperativity of a thermal spin-transition in the solid state.
