Abstract:
A 3-D FeII Hofmann-type framework material has been prepared which contains a three-connecting pyridyl-donor ligand with amide functionality and [Au(CN)2]- metallo-ligands. The FeII sites display a rare FeII(py)3(N[triple bond, length as m-dash]C)3 coordination environment, which we show for the first time to be conducive to spin crossover (SCO).

Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)
The extent of coupling depends on the C‑C bond length, the two H‑C‑C angles, any electron-withdrawing substituents, and the dihedral angle between the involved orbitals. The...
