Original Abstract

Three solvatomorphs of the iron(II) complex of 2,6di[4-(ethylcarboxy)pyrazol-1-yl]pyridine (bpCOOEt2p) of formulas [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2](ClO4)2 center dot 1.5MeNO2 (1), [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2]-(ClO4)2 center dot MeNO2 (2), and [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2](ClO4)2 center dot 2MeNO2 (3) have been prepared and characterized. They show interesting spin crossover (SCO) properties ranging from partial to complete thermal spin transitions and a light-induced excited spin-state trapping (LIESST) effect. In solvatomorph 2, a robust structure is formed with channels that enable the entrance or removal of solvent molecules by vapor diffusion without losing the crystallinity. Thus, solvent exchanged samples [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2](ClO4)2 center dot MeNO2 (2 center dot MeNO2), [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2](ClO4)2 center dot MeCN (2 center dot MeCN), [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2]-(ClO4)2 center dot 0.5Me2CO (2 center dot Me2CO), and [Fe(bpCOOEt2p)2](ClO4)2 center dot MeCOOH (2 center dot MeCOOH) were prepared by vapor diffusion of the solvents in a crystal of the compound previously heated to 400 K in a single-crystal to single-crystal (SCSC) fashion. Interestingly, this causes a change of spin state with a stabilization of the low-spin state in 2 center dot Me2CO and the high-spin state in 2 center dot MeCN. Therefore, the SCO properties of 2 can be tuned in a reversible way by exposure to different solvents.
