Spin-crossover in cobalt(II) imine complexes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Whereas there are hundreds of known iron(II) spin-crossover compounds, only a handful of cobalt(II) spin-crossover compounds have been discovered to date, and hardly an in depth study on any of them exists. This review begins with an introduction into the theoretical aspects to be considered when discussing spin-crossover compounds in general and cobalt(II) systems in particular. It is followed by case studies on [Co(bpy)3] and [Co(terpy)2] (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, terpy = 2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine) presenting and discussing results from magnetic susceptibility measurements, X-ray crystallography, optical spectroscopy, and EPR spectroscopy. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Template condensation of dibromoglyoxime with n-butylboronic acid on the corresponding metal ion as a matrix under vigorous reaction conditions afforded iron and cobalt(ii) hexabromoclathrochelates. The paramagnetic cobalt clathrochelate was found to be a low-spin complex at temperatures below 100 K, with a gradual increase in the effective magnetic moment at higher temperatures due to the temp...
