[Fe(II)LSCo(III)LS]2 ⇔ [Fe(III)LSCo(II)HS]2 photoinduced conversion in a cyanide-bridged heterobimetallic molecular square.
The self-assembly of [Fe(III){B(pz)(4)}(CN)(3)](-) and [Co(II)(bik)(2)(S)(2)](2+) affords the diamagnetic cyanide-bridged [Fe(II)(LS)Co(III)(LS)](2) molecular square which is converted into the corresponding magnetic [Fe(III)(LS)Co(II)(HS)](2) species under light irradiation at relatively low temperatures.
