Abstract

Polyoxometalate (POM) anions were successfully integrated into Fe(II) spin crossover (SCO) system, which demonstrates an effective role in regulating spin-state switching properties. Specifically, three drastically different magnetic behaviors of Fe(II) ion in the identical cation [Fe(bpp)2]2+ were achieved by leveraging [Mo6O19]2-, [Mo8O26]4-, and [Na(Mo8O26)]3-, respectively.
