Abstract

The abrupt [HS-HS] ↔ localized [HS-LS] spin crossovers of a new triazole-based diiron(II) complex result in a record-equaling thermal hysteresis loop width for a dinuclear complex (ΔT = 22 K by SQUID magnetometer in "settle" mode) and show a remarkable scan rate dependence of only the cooling branch, as revealed by detailed magnetic, DSC, and Mössbauer studies.
