Abstract
The preparation of Fe(II) complexes combining monodentate NCX- (X = S or Se) and the tetradentate Schiff base chiral ligands RR-L1 and SS-L1 = (RR- or SS-L1 = 1R,2R or 1S,2S)-N1,N2-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethylen)cyclohexane-1,2-diamine in acetone results in an unexpected reaction. Thus, four enantiomerically pure compounds of formulas [Fe(RR-S-L2)(NCX)2] and [Fe(SS-R-L2)(NCX)2] (X = S or Se) are formed by the new asymmetrical ligand L2. In L2, one acetone solvent molecule is incorporated into the ligand forming a bond with the C atom of one of the two CN imine groups of L1, which is transformed into an amine (Mannich reaction). This reaction is diastereoselective as the incorporation of acetone leads to an asymmetric C adjacent to the NH group with opposite chirality S- or R- to that of the cyclohexane carbons (RR- or SS-, respectively). Therefore, L2 contains three C chiral centers. Structural and magnetic characterization of these compounds demonstrates that they show in the bulk a gradual spin-crossover behavior and LIESST effect. Interestingly, the presence of an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the integrated acetone molecule and the NH group can trigger a secondary stimuli-responsive behavior in the system. Therefore, by changing the solvent polarity, the color of the complex in solution can be easily tuned.

Abstract
Since the last century, we have witnessed the development of molecular magnetism which deals with magnetic materials based on molecular species, i.e., organic radicals and metal complexes. Among them, the broadest attention was devoted to molecule-based ferro-/ferrimagnets, spin transition materials, including those exploring electron transfer, molecular nanomagnets, such as single-molecule magnets (SMMs), molecular qubits, and stimuli-responsive magnetic materials. Their physical properties open the application horizons in sensors, data storage, spintronics, and quantum computation. It was found that various optical phenomena, such as thermochromism, photoswitching of magnetic and optical characteristics, luminescence, nonlinear optical and chiroptical effects, as well as optical responsivity to external stimuli, can be implemented into molecule-based magnetic materials. Moreover, the fruitful interactions of these optical effects with magnetism in molecule-based materials can provide new physical cross-effects and multifunctionality, enriching the applications in optical, electronic, and magnetic devices. This Review aims to show the scope of optical phenomena generated in molecule-based magnetic materials, including the recent advances in such areas as high-temperature photomagnetism, optical thermometry utilizing SMMs, optical addressability of molecular qubits, magneto-chiral dichroism, and opto-magneto-electric multifunctionality. These findings are discussed in the context of the types of optical phenomena accessible for various classes of molecule-based magnetic materials.

Abstract
Non-centrosymmetric spin-switchable systems are of interest for their prospective applications as magnetically active non-linear optical materials and in multiferroic devices. Chiral resolution of simple spin-crossover chelate complexes into the Δ and Λ forms offers a facile route to homochiral magnetic switches, which could be easily enantiomerically enriched. Here, we report the spontaneous resolution of a new hysteretic spin-crossover complex, [MnIII (sal2 323)]SCN ⋅ EtOH (1), into Δ and Λ forms, without the use of chiral reagents, where sal2 323 is a Schiff base resulting from condensation of 1,2-bis(3-aminopropylamino)ethane with 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde. The enantiopurity of the Δ and Λ isomers was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and circular dichroism. Quantum chemistry calculations were used to investigate the electronic structure. The opening of a wide 80 K thermal hysteresis window at high temperature highlights the potential for good magneto-optical function at ambient temperature for materials of this type.

Abstract
Research on isomers is highly desirable due to their prospective role in better understanding of physicochemical properties of similar systems and further development of multifunctional molecular materials. Iron(II) and tetra(thiocyanato)mercury(II) ions self-assembled in the presence of 2-acetylpyridine (2-acpy) excess to form two {[Fe(2-acpy)][Hg(μ-SCN)4]}n isomers: two-dimensional (2D) centrosymmetric layers with folded ring structural motifs (1) and three-dimensional (3D) chiral networks with right- or left-handed {···Fe-NCS-Hg-SCN···}∞ helixes (2). New methods of designing and synthesizing functional thiocyanate-bridged materials have been proposed. In addition, the similarity between 1 and 2 allowed for the description of subtle changes in IR and UV-visible spectra. Moreover, 2 shows spontaneous resolution, and it crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space group P21, leading to the occurrence of nonlinear optical activity in circular dichroism studies and second harmonic generation (SHG). At room temperature, the SH susceptibility for powder sample 2 reached 6.0 × 10-11 esu. Ab initio calculations indicated the electric polarization vector and the crystallographic twofold screw axis pass through the aromatic ring. Magnetic studies for 1 and 2 revealed high-spin iron(II) with zero-field splitting at low temperatures. Analysis of magnetic data gave |D| = 37.45 cm-1, |E/D| = 5.59 cm-1, and ⟨g⟩ = 2.15 for 1, |D| = 36.78 cm-1, |E/D| = 4.92 cm-1, and ⟨g⟩ = 2.18 for 2, and information about the orientation of magnetic anisotropy vectors for both compounds.

Abstract
![]()
Structural, magnetic,
and spectroscopic data on a Mn3+ spin-crossover complex
with Schiff base ligand 4-OMe-Sal2323, isolated in crystal
lattices with five different counteranions,
are reported. Complexes of [Mn(4-OMe-Sal2323)]X where X
= ClO4– (1), BF4– (2), NO3– (3), Br– (4), and I– (5) crystallize isotypically in the chiral
orthorhombic space group P21212 with a range of spin state preferences for the [Mn(4-OMe-Sal2323)]+ complex cation over the temperature range
5–300 K. Complexes 1 and 2 are high-spin,
complex 4 undergoes a gradual and complete thermal spin
crossover, while complexes 3 and 5 show
stepped crossovers with different ratios of spin triplet and quintet
forms in the intermediate temperature range. High-field electron paramagnetic
resonance was used to measure the zero-field splitting parameters
associated with the spin triplet and quintet states at temperatures
below 10 K for complexes 4 and 2 with respective
values: DS=1 = +23.38(1) cm–1, ES=1 = +2.79(1) cm–1,
and DS=2 =
+6.9(3) cm–1, with a distribution of E parameters for the S = 2 state. Solid-state circular
dichroism (CD) spectra on high-spin complex 1 at room
temperature reveal a 2:1 ratio of enantiomers in the chiral conglomerate,
and solution CD measurements on the same sample in methanol show that
it is stable toward racemization. Solid-state UV–vis absorption
spectra on high-spin complex 1 and mixed S = 1/S = 2 sample 5 reveal different
intensities at higher energies, in line with the different electronic
composition. The statistical prevalence of homochiral crystallization
of [Mn(4-OMe-Sal2323)]+ in five lattices with
different achiral counterions suggests that the chirality may be directed
by the 4-OMe-Sal2323 ligand. Zero-field
splitting parameters of the spin triplet and
quintet forms of a spin-crossover Mn3+ complex stabilized
in lattices with different counterions are measured by high-field
electron paramagnetic resonance at different frequencies. The homochiral
crystallization of the enantiopure Δ or Λ forms of the
chelate complex, despite the use of achiral anions, is attributed
to the steric influence of the ligand substituent.

Abstract
This tutorial review article discusses chirality determination in the solid state, both in single crystals and in crystal assemblies, with an emphasis on X-ray diffraction. The main principles of using X-ray diffraction to reliably determine absolute structure are summarized, and the complexity which can be encountered in chiral structures-kryptoracemates, scalemates, and inversion twinning-is illustrated with examples from our laboratories and the literature. We then address the problem of the bulk crystallization and discuss different techniques to determine chirality in a large assembly of crystal structures, with a special prominence given to an X-ray natural circular dichroism mapping technique that we recently reported.

Abstract
Two ion-pair Fe(iii) complexes (PPh4)[FeIII(HATD)2]·2H2O (1, H3ATD = azotetrazolyl-2,7-dihydroxynaphthalene) and [FeII(phen)3][FeIII(HATD)2]2·3DMA·3.5H2O (2, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, DMA = N,N-dimethylformamide) were synthesized by employing the tridentate ligand H3ATD. Crystal structure analyses reveal that complexes 1 and 2 consist of FeIII ions in an octahedral environment where a FeIII ion is coordinated by two HATD2- ligands forming the [FeIII(HATD)2]- core. The shortest cationanion distance between the phosphorus ion of the (PPh4)+ cation and the ferric ion of the [FeIII(HATD)2]- anion is 13.190 Å in complex 1, whereas that between the ferrous ion of the [FeII(Phen)3]2+ cation and the ferric ion of the [FeIII(HATD)2]- anion is 7.821 Å in complex 2. C-HC and C-HO hydrogen interactions between the [FeII(phen)3]2+ cation and the [FeIII(HATD)2]- anion are observed in 2. Face-to-face π-π stacking interactions between naphthalene rings with the separated interplanar center to center distances of 3.421-3.680 Å were observed, which result in a one-dimensional supramolecular chain in complexes 1 and 2. Magnetic measurements show that complex 1 is in the low-spin (LS) state below 500 K, whereas 2 undergoes a high temperature spin crossover (SCO) between 360 and 500 K. Magneto-structural relationship studies reveal that π-stacking, hydrogen interactions and Coulomb interactions between the [FeIII(HATD)2]- anion and the [FeII(phen)3]2+ cation play a crucial role in the high temperature Fe(iii) SCO behaviour of complex 2.

Abstract
A series of crystalline phases composed of trimetallic 3d-5d-5d' {Fe9[Re(CN)8]6-x[W(CN)8]x(MeOH)24}·yMeOH (x = 1 (1), 2 (2), 3 (3), 4 (4) and 5 (5); y = 10-15) clusters were obtained by altering the octacyanidometalate composition. The temperature dependent studies involving SC XRD, SQUID magnetic measurements, IR spectroscopy and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy revealed reversible phase transition with the retention of single crystal character in each congener. The transition was assisted by reversible spin-crossover (SCO) HSFeII↔LSFeII transition at the central Fe1(ii) site for Fe9Re5W1 (1), Fe9Re4W2 (2), Fe9Re3W3 (3) and Fe9Re2W4 (4). In contrast, the tungsten-rich congener Fe9Re1W5 (5) exhibited nontrivial behavior with the SCO transition being stopped halfway through the cooling process, to be completed with single electron transfer (ET) from the external Fe2(ii) center towards one of the neighboring W(v) sites. The critical temperature Tc of SCO has been systematically increased from 193 K (1) to 247 K (4). All experimental data indicate the domination of the Fe(ii)-W(v) valence states in all crystals 1-5, however, with increasing quantity of [W(CN)8]3- (and decreasing quantity of [Re(CN)8]3-), the valence equilibrium Fe(ii)-W(v) ↔ Fe(iii)-W(iv) was systematically shifted to the right, starting from congener 3. The overall electronic configuration at low temperatures and variable amounts and location of spin carriers along the whole series suggest the remarkable competition between magnetic super-exchange Fe(ii)-CN-W(v) interactions and intermolecular interactions. The observed behavior is in line with the information collected previously for the bimetallic congeners Fe9Re6 and Fe9W6, to shed light on the role of the mixed tri-metallic composition in changing the properties observed for the relevant bimetallic cyanido-bridged skeletons.

Abstract
It has been recently shown that enantiomers of the helicoidal paddlewheel complex [Co3 (dpa)4 (CH3 CN)2 ]2+ (dpa = the anion of 2,2'-dipyridylamine) can be resolved using the chiral [As2 (tartrate)2 ]2- anion (AsT) and that these complexes demonstrate a strong chiroptical response in the ultraviolet-visible and X-ray energy regions. Here we report that the nickel congener, [Ni3 (dpa)4 (CH3 CN)2 ]2+ , can likewise be resolved using AsT. Depending on the stereochemistry of the enantiopure AsT anion, one or the other of the trinickel enantiomers crystallize from CH3 CN and diethyl ether in space group P421 2 as the (NBu4 )2 [Ni3 (dpa)4 (CH3 CN)2 ](AsT)2 ·[solvent] salt. After resolution, the AsT salts were converted into the PF6 - salts by anion exchange, with retention of the chirality of the trinickel complex. The enantiopure [Ni3 (dpa)4 (CH3 CN)2 ](PF6 )2 ·2CH3 CN and [Co3 (dpa)4 (CH3 CN)2 ](PF6 )2 ·CH3 CN·C4 H10 O compounds crystallize in space groups C2 and P21 , respectively. Both the Ni(II) and Co(II) complex cations are stable towards racemization in CH3 CN. Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) data obtained in CD3 CN demonstrate the expected mirror image spectra for the enantiomers, the observed peaks arising from the dpa ligand. The VCD response is significant, with Δε values up to 6 Lmol-1 cm-1 and vibrational dissymmetry factors on the order of 10-3 . Density functional theory calculations well reproduce the experimental spectra, showing little difference between the peak position, sign, and intensity in the VCD for the cobalt and nickel complexes. These results suggest that VCD enhancement of these peaks is unlikely, and their remarkable intensity may be due to their rigid helicoidal structure.

Abstract
Since the dawn of the century, people have been fascinated by the mysterious force that draws two pieces of lodestone (magnetite, Fe3 O4 ) to each other as well as by property of stilbite (natural zeolite, NaCa4 [Si27 Al9 O72 ]⋅28 H2 O) to generate huge amounts of steam by rapidly heating the material. Nowadays, we know the first effect is addressed by magnetic attraction whereas the second one is related to the reversible sorption/desorption of water from humid air inside porous materials. For a long time, it was thought that these two, at first glance, were disjunctive properties that cannot be combined into one material. Nevertheless, the scientists have once again proved that there are no impossible things. Based on the discovery of the first molecular magnets, the idea to combine magnetic properties with other functionalities such as porosity gained great consideration by scientists from different research fields. Very soon, we witnessed numerous reports of novel multifunctional materials among which we can distinguish humidity-responsive magnets. In this manuscript, the most outstanding results for such systems working at normal temperature and pressure (NTP) will be presented to motivate in-depth research on this topic.

Abstract
Photoswitching the physical properties of molecular systems opens large possibilities for driving materials far from equilibrium toward new states. Moreover, ultrashort pulses of light make it possible to induce and to record photoswitching on a very short time scale, opening the way to fascinating new functionalities. Among molecular materials, Fe(II) complexes exhibit an ultrafast spin-state transition during which the spin state of the complex switches from a low spin state (LS, S = 0) to a high spin state (HS, S = 2). The latter process is remarkable: It takes place within ∼100 fs with a quantum efficiency of ∼100%. Moreover, the spin-state switching induces an important shift of the broad metal-to-ligand absorption band of the complex, and it results in large modifications of the physical and chemical properties of the compounds. But because most of the Fe(II) complexes crystallize in centrosymmetric space groups, this prevents them from exhibiting piezoelectric, ferroelectric, as well as second-order nonlinear optical properties such as second-harmonic generation (SHG). This considerably limits their potential applications. We have recently synthesized [Fe(phen)3] [Δ-As2(tartrate)2] chiral complexes that crystallize in a noncentrosymmetric 32 space group. Hereafter, upon the excitation of a thin film of these complexes by a femtosecond laser pulse and performing simultaneously transient absorption (TRA) and time-resolved SHG (TRSH) measurements, we have recorded the ultrafast LS to HS switching. Whereas a single TRA measurement gives only partial information, we demonstrate that TRSH readily reveals the different mechanisms in play during the HS-to-LS state relaxation. Moreover, a simple model makes it possible to evaluate the relaxation times as well as the hyperpolarizabilities of the different excited states through which the system travels during the spin-state transition.

Abstract
The self-assembly of cobalt(II) with purine and octacyanidotungstate(V) results in the formation of the three-dimensional Co3 [W(CN)8 ]2 (purine)2 ⋅8.5H2 O (1) coordination polymer. This compound exhibits humidity-induced variation of the number of water molecules of crystallisation leading to a reversible structural phase transition and the alternation of the long-range ferromagnetic ordering temperature from TC =29 K for the pristine assembly (1) to TC =49 K for the sample stored in a low-humidity atmosphere (1-deh). This phenomenon can be attributed to a reversible change in the hydrogen-bonding network resulting in the modification of the local geometries of cobalt(II) as well as the cyanido bridges.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to give an overview of three important N-bidentate ligands: 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), and ethylenediamine (en). We have not attempted to be comprehensive because of the huge amount of activity being done in coordination chemistry using these ligands. Instead we present a full structural and geometrical study by using the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) combined with theoretical calculations that allow us to parameterize their coordinating properties and ability to coordinate to transition and non-transition metals. More importantly, we illustrate that upon coordination and formation of the five-membered chelate ring, these ligands are able to adapt themselves to the requirements of the different metals by changing the MN distances and NMN angles. Therefore, a redefinition of the preferences of these ligands to metals with large ionic radii is needed. Finally, we will present some facts about the participation of these ligands in inorganic-organic hybrids (IOHs) based on Keggin polyoxometalates (POMs).
