A two-step spin crossover mononuclear iron(II) complex with a [HS-LS-LS] intermediate phase.
The two-step spin crossover of a new mononuclear iron(ii) complex is studied by magnetic, crystallographic and calorimetric methods revealing two successive first-order phase transitions and an ordered intermediate phase built by the repetition of the unprecedented [HS-LS-LS] motif.
