Robust Room Temperature Hysteresis in an FeIII Spin Crossover Metallomesogen
نویسندگان
چکیده
The high temperature magnetic and structural properties of an amphiphilic iron(III) spin crossover complex are reported. Thermal cycling reveals a scan rate-dependent 20 K thermal hysteresis in the mT vs T data close to room temperature. A fast scan rate is essential for the hysteresis but it is robust and reproducible after multiple thermal cycles. Differential scanning calorimetry and cross polarized microscopy are used to show that the magnetic switching aligns with a material state change from solid to ordered liquid phase on warming.

Matrix-free synthesis of spin crossover micro-rods showing a large hysteresis loop centered at room temperature.
An original simple homogeneous acid medium was used to synthesize polymer/surfactant-free acicular micro-rod particles (10-40 μm long by 0.1-0.3 μm diameter) of the novel [Fe(Htrz)3](CF3SO3)2 complex. The study of the spin crossover properties reveals a rare 50 K hysteretic behavior perfectly centered at room temperature accompanied by a pronounced thermochromism effect, purple in the low spin ...

Solvent-free spin crossover (SCO) iron(III) complex, [FeIII(Him)2(hapen)]SbF6 (Him = imidazole, H2hapen = N,N′-bis(2-hydroxyacetophenylidene)ethylenediamine), is synthesized. The FeIII ion has an octahedral coordination geometry, with N2O2 donor atoms of hapen and N2 atoms of two imidazoles at the axial positions. The saturated five-membered chelate ring of hapen moiety assumes a gauche-type δo...
متن کاملSpin Transition Kinetics in the Salt [H2N(CH3)2]6[Fe3(L)6(H2O)6] (L = 4-(1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)ethanedisulfonate)
The dimethylammonium salt of the FeII polyanionic trimer [Fe3(μ-L)6(H2O)6]6 ́ (L = 4-(1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)ethanedisulfonate) exhibits a thermally induced spin transition above room temperature with one of the widest hysteresis cycles observed in a spin crossover compound (>85 K). Furthermore, the metastable high-spin (HS) state can be thermally trapped via relatively slow cooling, remaining metas...

The reaction of Fe(NCS)3 prepared in situ in MeOH with Hqsal-X (Hqsal-X = 5-X-N-quinolylsalicylaldimine) in CH2Cl2 yields the FeIII complexes, [Fe(qsal-X)2]NCS·solvent (X = F 1; X = Cl, 2, Br, 3 solvent = MeOH; X = I, solvent = 0.25CH2Cl2·0.5MeOH 4) in moderate to good yields. IR spectroscopy confirms that NCS− acts as a counteranion only and that the qsal-X ligand is bound to the FeIII centre....

The spin-crossover properties of the strongly cooperative compound [Fe(PM-PEA)2(NCS)2] (with PM-PEA = N-(21-pyridylmethylene)-4-(phenylethynyl)aniline) have been investigated under external in situ pressure, external ex situ pressure and internal pressure. In situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction investigations under pressure indicate a Spin-Crossover (SCO) at about 400 MPa and room temperature...
