title: A ladder type iron(II) coordination polymer with cooperative spin transition.
abstract: Ladder type 1D coordination polymers were synthesised with the aim to improve the spin crossover properties of the iron(II) complexes following the concepts of crystal engineering. A wide hysteresis loop (34 K) was observed if rigid linkers were used. The first X-ray structure for a 1D iron(II) ladder is reported.
