Abstract

All in a spin: A cobalt(II) coordination polymer has a highly cooperative spin-crossover (SCO) behavior with a small hysteresis loop (see picture; HS=high spin, LS=low spin). The correlation of the magnetic properties with the crystal structures was determined at different temperatures. This study reveals an unprecedented reversible symmetry breaking in a d(7) SCO coordination polymer.
