Unprecedented Multi‐Stable Spin Crossover Molecular Material with Two Thermal Memory Channels

Abstract

Two in one: A new iron(II) complex with short alkyl substituents exhibits an unprecedented bimodal behavior governed by the coexistence of three phases: two structurally different low-spin phases and one high-spin phase. The compound features two distinct well-separated strong cooperative spin-crossover transitions by varying the scan rate (see graphic).
