Abstract
During last decades, significant advances have been made in iron-based spin crossover (SCO) complexes, with a particular emphasis on achieving reversible and reproducible thermal hysteresis at room temperature (RT). This pursuit represents a pivotal goal within the field of molecular magnetism, aiming to create molecular devices capable of operating in ambient conditions. Here, we summarize the recent progress of iron complexes with spin transition near RT based on nitrogen ligands containing aromatic rings from molecular design to functional devices. Specifically, we discuss the various factors, including supramolecular interactions, crystal packing, guest molecules and pressure effects, that could influence its cooperativity and the spin transition temperature. Furthermore, the most recent advances in their implementation as mechanical actuators, switching/memories, sensors, and other devices, have been introduced as well. Finally, we give a perspective on current challenges and future directions in SCO community.

Abstract
A novel two-dimensional (2D) Hofmann-type coordination polymer, {FeII(PyHbim)2[Pd(CN)4]}·2CH3OH [1·2CH3OH, PyHbim = 2-(4-pyridyl)benzimidazole], has been synthesized, which can undergo a spontaneous guest exchange, transforming to 1·2H2O in a single-crystal-to-single-crystal (SCSC) manner, shifting from orthorhombic Cmmm to monoclinic C2/m involving the displacement of 2D layers. The solvent-induced SCSC transformation process was reversible and verified through powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and single-crystal X-ray crystallography analyses. Both 1·2CH3OH and 1·2H2O exhibit complete and abrupt spin crossover (SCO) behaviors in two steps, while their SCO temperature ranges drastically shift by ca.100 K, spanning room temperature, owing to different intermolecular interactions resulting from diverse interlayer packing manners and host-guest interactions. Besides, a structural phase transition is observed in 1·2CH3OH, contributing to the two-step spin transition.

Abstract
We report herein the synthesis and characterization of two unprecedented isomorphous spin-crossover two-dimensional coordination polymers of the Hofmann-type formulated {FeII(Hdpyan)2(μ2-[MII(CN)4])2}, with MII = Pd, Pt and Hdpyan is the in situ partially protonated form of 2,5-(dipyridin-4-yl)aniline (dpyan). The FeII is axially coordinated by the pyridine ring attached to the 2-position of the aniline ring, while it is equatorially surrounded by four [MII(CN)4]2- planar groups acting as trans μ2-bidentate ligands defining layers, which stack parallel to each other. The other pyridine group of Hdpyan, being protonated, remains peripheral but involved in a strong [MII-C≡N···Hpy+] hydrogen bond between alternate layers. This provokes a nearly 90° rotation of the plane defined by the [MII(CN)4]2- groups, with respect to the average plane defined by the layers, forcing the observed uncommon bridging mode and the accumulation of negative charge around each FeII, which is compensated by the axial [Hdpyan]+ ligands. According to the magnetic and calorimetric data, both compounds undergo a strong cooperative spin transition featuring a 10-12 K wide hysteresis loop centered at 220 (Pt) and 211 K (Pd) accompanied by large entropy variations, 97.4 (Pt) and 102.9 (Pd) J/K mol. The breaking symmetry involving almost 90° rotation of one of the two coordinated pyridines together with the large unit-cell volume change per FeII (ca. 50 Å3), and subsequent release of significantly short interlayer contacts upon the low-spin → high-spin event, accounts for the strong cooperativity.

Abstract
A high-pressure study of a switching coordination network of square lattice topology (sql) loaded with o-xylene (OX), [Co(4,4'-bipyridine)2(NCS)2] n ·4nC8H10 (sql-1-Co-NCS·4OX), was conducted up to approximately 1 GPa to investigate pressure-induced structural changes. Previous reports revealed that sql-1-Co-NCS exhibits multiple phases thanks to its ability to switch between closed (nonporous) and several open (porous) phases in the presence of various gases, vapors, and liquids. Networks of such properties are of topical interest because they can offer high working capacity and improved recyclability for gas adsorption. The monoclinic crystal structure of sql-1-Co-NCS·4OX at 100 K was previously reported to show an increase in interlayer separation of more than 100% compared to the corresponding closed phase, sql-1-Co-NCS, when exposed to gases or vapors under ambient conditions. Herein, a tetragonal crystal form of sql-1-Co-NCS·4OX (space group I4/mmm, Phase I) that exists at 0.1 MPa/303 K is reported. Exposure of Phase I to high pressure using penetrable pressure transmitting media (OX and 1:1 vol MeOH/EtOH) did not result in further separation of the sql networks. Rather, compression of the crystals and release of adsorbed OX molecules occurred. These pressure-induced changes are discussed in terms of structural voids, framework conformation, and molecular packing of the sql layers. Although Phase I retained tetragonal symmetry throughout the investigated pressure range, the interlayer voids occupied by OX molecules were significantly reduced between 0.3 and 0.5 GPa; further compression above 0.5 GPa induced structural disorder. Additionally, analysis of the electron count present in the pores of sql-1-Co-NCS confirmed the multistep evacuation of OX molecules from the crystal, and two intermediate phases, Ia and Ib, differing in the OX loading level, are postulated.

Abstract
A detailed study of the two-dimensional (2-D) Hofmann-like framework [Fe(furpy)2Pd(CN)4]·nG (furpy: N-(pyridin-4-yl)furan-2-carboxamide, G = H2O,EtOH (A·H2O,Et), and H2O (A·H2O)) is presented, including the structural and spin-crossover (SCO) implications of subtle guest modification. This 2-D framework is characterized by undulating Hofmann layers and an array of interlayer spacing environments─this is a strategic approach that we achieve by the inclusion of a ligand with multiple host-host and host-guest interaction sites. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies reveal an asymmetric multistep SCO for A·H2O,Et and an abrupt single-step SCO for A·H2O with an upshift in transition temperature of ∼75 K. Single-crystal analyses show a primitive orthorhombic symmetry for A·H2O,Et characterized by a unique FeII center─the multistep SCO character is attributed to local ligand orientation. Counterintuitively, A·H2O shows a triclinic symmetry with two inequivalent FeII centers that undergo a cooperative single-step high-spin (HS)-to-low-spin (LS) transition. We conduct detailed structure-function analyses to understand how the guest ethanol influences the delicate balance between framework communication and, therefore, the local structure and spin-state transition mechanism.

Abstract
Spin crossover complexes that reversibly interconvert between two stable states imitate a binary state of 0 and 1, delivering a promising possibility to address the data processing concept in smart materials. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of the modulation of magnetic transition between high spin and low spin and the factors responsible for stabilizing the spin states is an essential theme in modern materials design. In this context, the present review attempts to provide a concise outline of the design strategy employed at the molecular level for fine-tuning the spin-state switching in FeII -based Hofmann-type coordination polymers and their effects on the optical and magnetic response. In addition, development towards the nanoscale architectures of HCPs, i. e., in terms of nanoparticles and thin films, are emphasized to bridge the gap between the laboratory and reality.

Abstract
Host-guest interactions play critical roles in achieving switchable structures and functionalities in porous materials, but design and control remain challenging. Here, we report a two-dimensional porous magnetic compound, [FeII(prentrz)2PdII(CN)4] (prentrz = (1E,2E)−3-phenyl-N-(4H-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)prop-2-en-1-imine), which exhibits an atypical pore transformation that directly entangles with a spin state transition in response to water adsorption. In this material, the adsorption-induced, non-uniform pedal motion of the axial prentrz ligands and the crumpling/unfolding of the layer structure actuate a reversible narrow quasi-discrete pore (nqp) to large channel-type pore (lcp) change that leads to a pore rearrangement associated with simultaneous pore opening and closing. The unusual pore transformation results in programmable adsorption in which the lcp structure type must be achieved first by the long-time exposure of the nqp structure type in a steam-saturated atmosphere to accomplish the gate-opening adsorption. The structural transformation is accompanied by a variation in the spin-crossover (SCO) property of FeII, i.e., two-step SCO with a large plateau for the lcp phase and two-step SCO with no plateau for the nqp phase. The unusual adsorption-induced pore rearrangement and the related SCO property offer a way to design and control the pore structure and physical properties of dynamic frameworks. Host-guest interactions can play a critical role in achieving switchable porous materials, but controlling them remains challenging. Here the authors report an atypical pore rearrangement in a magnetic 2D porous framework upon water adsorption; the structural transformation affects the magnetic properties of the material.

Abstract
We investigate the effects of a broad array of external stimuli on the structural, spin-crossover (SCO) properties and nature of the elastic interaction within the two-dimensional Hofmann framework material [Fe(cintrz)2Pd(CN)4]·guest (cintrz = N-cinnamalidene 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole; A·guest; guest = 3H2O, 2H2O, and Ø). This framework exhibits a delicate balance between ferro- and antiferro-elastic interaction characters; we show that manipulation of the pore contents across guests = 3H2O, 2H2O, and Ø can be exploited to regulate this balance. In A·3H2O, the dominant antiferroelastic interaction character between neighboring FeII sites sees the low-temperature persistence of the mixed spin-state species {HS-LS} for {Fe1-Fe2} (HS = high spin, LS = low spin). Elastic interaction strain is responsible for stabilizing the {HS-LS} state and can be overcome by three mechanisms: (1) partial (2H2O) or complete (Ø) guest removal, (2) irradiation via the reverse light-induced excited spin-state trapping (LIESST) effect (λ = 830 nm), and (3) the application of external hydrostatic pressure. Combining experimental data with elastic models presents a clear interpretation that while guest molecules cause a negative chemical pressure, they also have consequences for the elastic interactions between metals beyond the simple chemical pressure picture typically proposed.

Abstract
The interplay of host-guest interactions and controlled modulation of spin-crossover (SCO) behavior is one of the most exploited topics regarding data storage, molecular sensing, and optical technologies. In this work, we demonstrate the experimental approach of tuning the SCO behavior via controlled modulation of the spin-state cooperativity in a 2D Hofmann coordination polymer, [FeIIPd(CN)4(L)2]·1.3MeOH (1·1.3MeOH; L = methyl isonicotinate). Removal of the solvent changes the four-step transition to a complete one-step spin transition with an enhanced hysteresis width (∼20 K). Structural analysis of solvated (1·1.3MeOH) and partially desolvated (1·0.3MeOH) compounds reveals that the crystal system changes from a monoclinic C2/c space group to an orthorhombic Imma space group, where the FeII sites are present in a more symmetrically equivalent environment. Consequently, the axial ligand-field (LF) strength and face-to-face interactions of the ligands were increased by removing the guest, which is reflected in the highly cooperative SCO in 1 (desolvated compound). Also, the shift of the CN bond stretching frequencies and decrease of their relative intensities from the variable-temperature Raman spectroscopic measurements further corroborate the SCO behavior. Besides, theoretical calculations reveal that the singlet (1Γ) LF terms decrease by removing guest molecules, enhancing the molecular population in the low-spin state at low temperature, as experimentally observed for 1. Notably, fine tuning of the SCO behavior via host-guests interactions provides a great opportunity to design potential chemosensors.

Abstract
![]()
Controlled
modulation of the spin-crossover (SCO) behavior through
the sorption–desorption of invited molecules is an extensively
exploited topic because of its potential applications in molecular
sensing. For this purpose, understanding the mechanisms by which the
spin-switching properties are altered by guest molecules is of paramount
importance. Here, we show an experimental approach revealing a direct
probe of how the interplay between SCO and host–guest chemistry
is noticeably activated by chemically tuning the host structure. Thus,
the axial ligand 4-phenylpyridine (4-PhPy) in the 2D Hofmann clathrates
{Fe(4-PhPy)2[M(CN)4]} (PhPyM; M
= Pt, Pd) is replaced by 2,4-bipyridine (2,4-Bipy), resulting in the
isomorphous compounds {Fe(2,4-Bipy)2[M(CN)4]}
(BipyM; M = Pt, Pd), which basically differ from the
former in that they have a noncoordinated N heteroatom in the ancillary
aromatic substituent, i.e., 2-pyridyl instead of phenyl. Our chemical,
magnetic, calorimetric, and structural characterizations demonstrate
that this subtle chemical composition change provokes outstanding
modifications not only in the capability to adsorb small guests as
water or methanol but also in the extent to which these guests affect
the SCO characteristics. The introduction
of an N-heterocyclic atom in the aromatic
interdigitated axial ligands of a 2D Hofmann-type framework provokes
dramatic changes on its affinity to solvent guests. Sorption−desorption
of these guests induces drastic structural changes, affecting dramatically
the hysteretic spin-crossover properties of the framework.

Abstract
Aiming at investigating the suitability of Hofmann-type two-dimensional (2D) coordination polymers {FeII(Lax)2[MII(CN)4]} to be processed as single monolayers and probed as spin crossover (SCO) junctions in spintronic devices, the synthesis and characterization of the MII derivatives (MII = Pd and Pt) with sulfur-rich axial ligands (Lax = 4-methyl- and 4-ethyl-disulfanylpyridine) have been conducted. The thermal dependence of the magnetic and calorimetric properties confirmed the occurrence of strong cooperative SCO behavior in the temperature interval of 100-225 K, featuring hysteresis loops 44 and 32.5 K/21 K wide for PtII-methyl and PtII/PdII-ethyl derivatives, while the PdII-methyl derivative undergoes a much less cooperative multistep SCO. Excluding PtII-methyl, the remaining compounds display light-induced excited spin-state trapping at 10 K with TLIESST temperatures in the range of 50-70 K. Single-crystal studies performed in the temperature interval 100-250 K confirmed the layered structure and the occurrence of complete transformation between the high- and low-spin states of the FeII center for the four compounds. Strong positional disorder seems to be the source of elastic frustration driving the multistep SCO observed for the PdII-methyl derivative. It is expected that the peripheral disulfanyl groups will favor anchoring and growing of the monolayer on gold substrates and optimal electron transport in the device.

Abstract
Two new two-dimensional (2D) coordination polymers, [FeII(L)2{PdII(SCN)4}] (L1 = 3-(9-anthracenyl)-pyridine (1) and L2 = 4-(9-anthracenyl)-pyridine (2)), were constructed by employing square-planar [Pd(SCN)4]2- building blocks. Compound 1 exhibits a complete spin-crossover (SCO) behaviour under normal atmospheric pressure, and represents the first SCO example in a 2D system containing [Pd(SCN)4]2- units. In contrast, compound 2 only shows paramagnetic behaviour at measured temperatures. It is clear that the fine-tuning of the monodentate ligand can modulate the ligand field and packing fashions, which sheds light on developing new SCO materials.

Abstract
An extended nitro-functionalised 1,2,4-triazole ligand has been used to induce considerable lattice distortion in a 2-D Hofmann framework material via competing supramolecular interactions. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses on [Fe3(N-cintrz)6(Pd(CN)4)3]·6H2O (N-cintrz: (E)-3-(2-nitrophenyl)acrylaldehyde) reveal a substantial deviation from a regular Hofmann structure, in particular as the intra- and inter-layer contacts are dominated by hydrogen-bonding interactions rather than the typical π-stacking arrays. Also, the 2-D Hofmann layers show an assortment of ligand conformations and local FeII coordination environments driven by the optimisation of competing supramolecular contacts. Temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal a two-step spin crossover (SCO) transition. Variable temperature structural analyses show that the two crystallographically distinct FeII centres, which are arranged in stripes (2 : 1 ratio) within each Hofmann layer, undergo a cooperative HS ↔ HS/LS ↔ LS (HS = high spin, LS = low spin) transition without periodic spin-state ordering. The mismatch between crystallographic (2 : 1) and spin-state (1 : 1) periodicity at the HS : LS step provides key insight into the competition (frustration) between elastic interactions and crystallographically driven order.
