Abstract

Invited for the cover of this issue are Ryuta Ishikawa and Satoshi Kawata at Fukuoka University and co-workers at Osaka University, Tohoku University, and Kumamoto University, Japan, collaborating within the research project "SOFT CRYSTALS". The image depicts the thermally induced simultaneous switching of magnetism and electrical conductivity in a two-dimensional supramolecular architecture composed of dinuclear Fe^II spin-crossover complexes and partially charged 7,7',8,8'-tetracyano-p-quinodimethanide radicals. 10.1002/chem.201903934.
