Observation of a 331 K (58 °C) spin transition for bis[hydrotris(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)borate]iron(II) by variable temperature infrared spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility measurements

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Fe{HB(CHN)} is observed by variable temperature infrared and magnetic studies to have a spin transition between the low spin S = 0 and high spin S = 2 states at 331 K (58 °C) with thermal hysteresis of ~1.5 K. Changes in the triazole ligand IR absorptions demonstrate that distant non-metal-ligand vibrations are altered upon the change in electronic structure associated with the spin-crossover can be used to monitor the the spin-crossover transition.
