title: Symmetry breaking above room temperature in an Fe(ii) spin crossover complex with an N4O2donor set.
abstract: [Fe(qsal-Cl)2] is one of the few known Fe(ii) spin crossover compounds with an N4O2donor atom environment. It shows an abrupt two-step spin transition at 308 and 316 K and importantly, symmetry breaking at the highest temperature reported, to date, in spin crossover compounds.
