Abstract
Two new salts of a mononuclear tripodal Fe(II) complex were prepared, using ClO4- and Cl-. The ClO4- sample (1) remained HS at low temperatures, similar to the previously reported BF4- analogue. Crystallising with the Cl- anion (2) led to a markedly different crystal packing arrangement, and engendered SCO activity. This has been correlated to the lower crystal packing density in 2 and the coordination complex conformational differences arising due to the packing motifs of 1 and 2. Further, solvent ordering effects have been proposed to facilitate spin transition behaviour in 2.

Abstract
Discrete spin crossover (SCO) tetranuclear cages are a unique class of materials that have potential use in next-generation molecular recognition and sensing. In this work, two new edge-bridged SCO FeII4L6 (L = 2,7-bis(((E)-pyridin-2-ylmethylene)amino)benzo[lmn] [3,8]phenanthroline-1,3,6,8(2H,7H)-tetraone) supramolecular cages with different counter anions: ClO4- (2) and CF3SO3- (3) were constructed via subcomponent self-assembly to investigate both solvent and anion influences on their magnetic properties and compare them to cage 1 with a BF4- anion. Pyridyl-hydrazone bidentate ligand scaffolds were employed to replace the 'classical' imidazole/thiazolyl-imine coordination units to induce SCO behaviour in these cages. 2 and 3 were structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Magnetic susceptibilities of 1-3 and 1-3·desolvated indicate that the solvents' presence is in favor of the low-spin (LS) state. While different counter anions in 1-3·desolvated affect the spin-state configurations of the four FeII metal centers. According to the 57Fe Mössbauer spectral analysis, the spin-state distributions in 1-3 at 80 K are [2 high-spin (HS)-2LS], [1HS-3LS] and [2HS-2LS], respectively and density functional theory calculations were employed to investigate the reasons. These findings provide insights to regulate the spin-state versatility of SCO FeII cage systems in the solid state.

Abstract
Two acyclic tetradentate Schiff base ligands, HLX-OH (X = H and Br), were synthesised by 2:1 condensation of either 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde or 5-bromo-2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde and 1,3-diamino-2-propanol and then used to prepare six mononuclear complexes, [FeII(HLX-OH)(NCE)2], with three different NCE co-ligands (E = BH3, Se, and S). The apparent solution spin crossover switching temperature, T1/2, of these 6 complexes, determined by Evans method NMR studies, is tuned by several factors: (a) substituent X present at the 5 position of the pyridine ring of the ligand, (b) E present in the NCE co-ligand, (c) solvent employed (P'), and (d) potentially also by speciation effects. In CD3CN, for the pair of NCE = NCBH3 complexes, when X = H, the complex is practically LS (extrapolated T1/2 ∼624 K), whereas when X = Br, it is far lower (373 K), which implies a higher field strength when X = H than when it is Br. The same trend, X = H results in a higher apparent T1/2 than X = Br, is seen for the other two pairs of complexes, with E = Se (429 > 351 K, ΔT1/2 = 78 K) or S (361 > 342 K, ΔT1/2 = 19 K). For the family of three X = Br complexes, the change of E from BH3 (373 K) to Se (351 K) to S (342 K) leads to an overall ΔT1/2(apparent) = 31 K, whereas the decreases are far more pronounced in the X = H family (BH3 ∼624 > Se 429 > S 361 K). Changing the solvent used from CD3CN to (CD3)2CO and CD3NO2, for [FeII(HLBr-OH)(NCE)2] with either E = BH3 or S, revealed excellent, and very similar, positive linear correlations (R2 = 0.99) of increasing solvent polarity index P' (from 5 to 7) with increasing apparent T1/2 of the complex (E = BH3 gave T1/2 300 < 373 < 451 K , ΔT1/2 = 151 K; E = S gave T1/2 288 < 342 < 427 K, ΔT1/2 = 147 K). Several other solvent parameters were also correlated with the apparent T1/2 of these complexes (R2 = 0.74-0.96). Excellent linear correlations (R2 = 0.99) are also obtained with the coordination ability (aTM) of the three NCE co-ligands with the apparent T1/2 in both families of compounds, [FeII(HLX-OH)(NCE)2] where X = H or Br. The 15N NMR chemical shifts of the nitrogen atom in the three NCE co-ligands (direct measurement) show modest correlations (R2 = 0.74 for LH-OH family and 0.80 for LBr-OH family) with the apparent T1/2 values of the corresponding complexes.

Abstract
Structural phase transition in [Fe(bbtre)3](ClO4)2·2CH3CN (bbtre = 1,4-di(1-ethyl-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl)butane) plays the role of a switch, allowing spin crossover to be carried out in two ways.
