Abstract

A new air stable Fe<sup>III</sup> spin crossover (SCO) complex has been synthesized. The compound undergoes abrupt SCO near room temperature with T<inf>1/2</inf> (↓) = 244 K and T<inf>1/2</inf> (↑) = 278 K. Structural studies of the complex in the high spin and low spin state show that the strong cooperativity and thus the wide hysteresis is driven by an unprecedented anionic conformational change.
