The low spin Co(II) fragment with homoleptic 1,10-phenanthroline ligands: synthesis, structures, DFT investigations, and magnetic properties

Iron(ii) and cobalt(ii) complexes based on anionic phenanthroline-imidazolate ligands: reversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations

Among the series of Fe^IIand Co^IIcomplexes based on phenanthroline-imidazolate ligands, the Fe^IIcomplex (H₉O₄)[Fe(PIMP)₃]·(C₄H₁₀O)₂(H₂O) (1a) exhibits reversible single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformations by solvent uptake/release.

{CoIIIMnIII}ncorrugated chains based on heteroleptic cyanido metalloligands

The use of cyanide-bearing complexes affords one-dimensional coordination polymers with the formulas {[Mn^III(salen)(μ-NC)₂Co^III(4,4-dmbipy)(CN)₂]·H₂O}_n(1) and {[Mn^III(salen)(μ-NC)₂Co^III(dmphen)(CN)₂]}_n(2) .
