Cooperative High-Temperature Spin Crossover Accompanied by a Highly Anisotropic Structural Distortion

Description

A new 3D cyanoheterometallic framework, [Fe(pz){Au(CN)2}2], displays a highly cooperative spin crossover at elevated temperatures. The low-spin-to-high-spin transition induces a drastic structural distortion that involves a large one-directional expansion (10.6 %) and contraction (9.6 %) of the lattice.
