| '''Spin Crossover''' (SCO), sometimes referred to as '''spin transition''' or '''spin equilibrium''' behavior, is a phenomenon that occurs in some metal complexes wherein the spin state of the complex changes due to external stimuli such as a variation of temperature, pressure, light irradiation or an influence of a magnetic field.<ref name = guetlich>{{cite book|author = P. Gütlich, H.A. Goodwin |title = Spin Crossover in Transition Metal Compounds I|publisher = Springer Berlin|year = 2004| isbn = 978-3-540-40396-8}}</ref> With regard to a ligand field and [[ligand field theory]], the change in spin state is a transition from a low spin (LS) ground state electron configuration to a high spin (HS) ground state electron configuration of the metal’s d atomic orbitals (AOs), or vice versa. The magnitude of the ligand field splitting along with the pairing energy of the complex determines whether it will have a LS or HS electron configuration. A LS state occurs because the ligand field splitting (Δ) is greater than the pairing energy of the complex (which is an unfavorable process).<ref name = cotton>{{cite book|author = F. Albert Cotton, Geoffrey Wilkinson and Paul L. Gaus |title = Basic Inorganic Chemistry|publisher = Wiley|year = 1995|edition = 3| isbn = 978-0-471-50532-7}}</ref> '''Figure 1''' shows a simplified illustration of the metal’s d orbital splitting in the presence of an octahedral ligand field. A large splitting between the t<sub>2g</sub> and e<sub>g</sub> AOs requires a substantial amount of energy for the electrons to overcome the energy gap (Δ) to comply with Hund’s Rule. Therefore, electrons will fill the lower energy t<sub>2g</sub> orbitals completely before populating the higher energy e<sub>g</sub> orbitals. Conversely, a HS state occurs with weaker ligand fields and smaller orbital splitting. In this case the energy required to populate the higher levels is substantially less than the pairing energy and the electrons fill the orbitals according to Hund’s Rule by populating the higher energy orbitals before pairing with electrons in the lower lying orbitals. An example of a metal ion that can exist in either a LS or HS state is Fe<sup>3+</sup> in an octahedral ligand field. Depending on the ligands that are coordinated to this complex the Fe<sup>3+</sup> can attain a LS or a HS state, as in '''Figure 1'''.

| Spin crossover refers to the transitions between high to low, or low to high, spin states. This phenomenon is commonly observed with some first row transition metal complexes with a d<sup>4</sup> – d<sup>7</sup> electron configuration in an octahedral ligand geometry.<ref name="cotton"/> Spin transition curves are a common representation of SCO phenomenon with the most commonly observed types depicted in '''Figure 2''' in which γ<sub>HS</sub> (the high-spin molar fraction) is plotted vs. T.<ref name="real"/> The figure shows a gradual spin transition (left), an abrupt transition with [[hysteresis]] (middle) and a two-step transition (right). For a transition to be considered gradual, it typically takes place over a large temperature range, even up to several hundred K, whereas for a transition to be considered abrupt, it should take place within 10 K or less.<ref name="guetlich"/>
| |
| | |
| These curves indicate that a spin transition has occurred in a metal complex as temperature changed. The gradual transition curve is an indication that not all metal centers within the complex are undergoing the transition at the same temperature. The abrupt spin change with [[hysteresis]] indicates a strong cooperativity, or “communication”, between neighboring metal complexes. In the latter case, the material is bistable and can exist in the two different spin states with a different range of external stimuli (temperature in this case) for the two phenomena, namely LS → HS and HS → LS. The two-step transition is relatively rare but is observed, for example, with dinuclear SCO complexes for which the spin transition in one metal center renders the transition in the second metal center less favorable.
| |
| | |
| There are several types of spin crossover that can occur in a complex; some of them are [[LIESST|light induced excited state spin trapping (LIESST)]], ligand-driven light induced spin change (LD-LISC) and charge transfer induced spin transition (CTIST). There are several techniques that can be used to detect the SCO phenomena in metal complexes. Due to the changes in magnetic properties that occur from a spin transition - the complex being more [[diamagnetic]] in a LS state and more paramagnetic in a HS state - [[magnetic susceptibility]] measurements as a function of temperature are most commonly used in addition to optical spectroscopy and [[X-ray crystallography]]. <sup>57</sup>Fe [[Mössbauer Spectroscopy]] is also another technique employed to detect SCO in iron complexes.

| The most significant consequences of SCO are the changes in metal-to-ligand bond distances due to the population or depopulation of the e<sub>g</sub> orbitals which have a slight antibonding character and the changes in magnetic properties of the complex. '''[[X-ray crystallography]]''' is used to measure the bond distances between the metal and the ligands, which give insight into the spin state of the complex. Measurement of the '''[[magnetic susceptibility]]''' as a function of temperature, (χT), however, is the principal technique used to characterize SCO complexes. '''Figure 3''' shows an example of a [[magnetic susceptibility]] plot. The [[magnetic susceptibility]] data (χ) obtained under the application of a magnetic field reveal the magnetic character of the complex. In a high spin state there are going to be more unpaired electrons than in the low spin state, therefore if the complex has a high spin state the χT value will be greater. The [[magnetic susceptibility]] is generally measured from room temperature to liquid helium temperatures with the use of a [[SQUID]] instrument which is highly sensitive.<ref name="guetlich"/>

| Due to the change in the metal-to-ligand bond distance (M-L) between the HS and LS state, the vibrational modes of the M-L are going to be affected. Vibrational spectroscopy techniques, such as [[Raman spectroscopy]], are going to be sensitive to these M-L vibrational modes. Therefore, [[Raman spectroscopy]] can be used to identify which spin state is predominant in a SCO complex. The spin crossover phenomenon is very sensitive to grinding, milling and pressure but [[Raman spectroscopy]] has the advantage that the sample does not require further preparation, which is in contrast to Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, [[FT-IR]], techniques; highly colored samples may affect the measurements however.<ref name='tuchagues,'>{{cite journal|title = The Role of Molecular Vibrations in the Spin Crossover Phenomenon| author = Jean-Pierre Tuchagues, Azzedine Bousseksou, Gábor Molnár, John J.

Thermally induced spin crossover is due to the higher electronic degeneracies of the LS form and lower vibrational frequencies of the HS form, thus increasing the entropy. '''Figure 5''' shows the Raman spectrum of an iron(II) complex in the HS and LS state, emphasizing the changes in the M-L vibrational modes, where a shift from 2114 cm<sup>−1</sup> to 2070 cm<sup>−1</sup> corresponds to changes in the stretching vibrational modes of the thiocyanate ligand from a LS state to a HS state, respectively.

| Transitions from a HS to a LS state cause a decrease in the bond distances between the metal center and the ligand. The decrease in the number of antibonding electrons also strengthens the metal-ligand bond in transitions from a HS to LS state. Because the HS and LS states differ with regard to metal-to-ligand bond distances, the harmonic approximation can be assumed. The LS state will have the smaller equilibrium distance - meaning that it has the larger bond force constant, ωLS>ωHS, and the transitions must fall within the thermal energy, k<sub>B</sub>T .<ref name="tuchagues,"/> In addition, spin transitions are going to affect the vibrational modes of the ligands. A strong interaction between the metal and the ligand, as is the case of a LS state, is going to cause a shift of the electronic density to the metal causing a weakness of the interligand bonds, and therefore a red shift of their vibrational modes. '''Figure 6''' shows the [[FT-IR]] spectrum of an iron(II) cluster at different temperatures. As the temperature decreases, the Fe-N bond distance decreases. Therefore the CN stretching band shifts to higher frequencies and at higher temperatures, the CN stretching band increases in energy. In this figure, it is shown how the HS state CN stretching band at 2054 cm<sup>−1</sup> is predominant at higher temperatures and the LS state CN stretching band at 2099 cm<sup>−1</sup> is predominant at lower temperatures, in addition to the different mixed HS and LS state and the fading of this band as the temperatures change. The area under the curves of the absorption peaks for these two states are going to be proportional to the fraction of HS and LS states in the sample. '''Figure 7''' shows a plot of the area under the curves of the absorption peaks as a function of temperature for the same iron cluster (vide supra), showing a large [[hysteresis]] loop.

| Changes in the (M-L) bond distances are going to affect the symmetry and electronic states of metal complexes. [[UV-vis spectroscopy]] is a very useful tool for the determination of the changes of electronic states due to the SCO. For example the HS and LS states of an Fe<sup>II</sup> compound such as Fe<sup>II</sup>(pic)<sub>3</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>·EtOH, can be followed with [[UV-vis spectroscopy]]. The absorption spectra of these Fe<sup>II</sup> molecules at different temperatures clearly show the change in intensities of the spin allowed transitions, due to these symmetric changes. Similarly to [[FT-IR]], the intensities of the absorption bands are proportional to the fraction of metal centers in the corresponding spin state; the more intense the band, the higher the fraction of metal centers in that spin state. '''In Figure 9''', the <sup>5</sup>T<sub>2</sub>→<sup>5</sup>E absorption band, (left spectrum), corresponds to the HS transition and is centered at 830 nm. The optical density of the HS band is proportional to the γ<sub>HS</sub>, and a γ<sub>HS</sub> vs. temperature can be plotted as in '''Figure 10'''. The LS state is seen at a higher energy which is centered at 470 nm (shown on the right in '''Figure 9''').<ref name="hauser"/> However, the LS state absorption bands are indistinguishable due to the high intensity absorption bands caused by the Metal-to-Ligand Charge Transfer (MLCT) absorption bands.<ref name="hauser"/>

| Thermal perturbations are by far the most common type of external stimulus used to induce SCO. There are many examples of complexes that exhibit SCO with the aid of thermal variation. One such example was reported in 2007 by Dunbar et al. in which a pentanuclear cluster exhibits the SCO phenomenon.<ref name="shatruk"/> '''Figure 11''' shows the [Fe<sup>II</sup>(tmphen)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>3</sub>[Co<sup>III</sup>(CN)<sub>6</sub>]<sub>2</sub> trigonal bipyramid (TBP), with the Fe<sup>II</sup> centers in the equatorial positions and '''Figure 12''' shows a <sup>57</sup>Fe Mössbauer spectrum at 300 K for the cluster. Dunbar et al. had found that increasing the temperature causes a major change in the cluster’s electronic structure. The amount of HS Fe<sup>II</sup> present in any sample within the range of 4.2 K to 50 K does not change and remains under 20%, but at room temperature about two-thirds of the Fe<sup>II</sup> ions in the sample of water-containing crystals exhibit a HS state, as shown by the absorption band at 2.1 mm/s, while the other third of the ions remain in the LS state. This shows that either every TBP cluster converts from a [(LS Fe<sup>II</sup>)<sub>3</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>2</sub>] at 4.2 K to [(LS Fe<sup>II</sup>) (HS Fe<sup>II</sup>)<sub>2</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>2</sub>] at room temperature or that two-thirds of the clusters change from [(LS Fe<sup>II</sup>)<sub>3</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>2</sub>] to [(HS Fe<sup>II</sup>)<sub>3</sub>Co<sup>II</sup><sub>2</sub>] over the same range of temperature. In addition to the crystals containing water, Dunbar et al. studied the effect of interstitial solvent on SCO by studying acetonitrile-containing crystals as well. This study revealed a similar phenomenon but over a lower temperature range, data that support the conclusion that weak effects such as crystal packing environments can affect SCO as well.

| |
| | |
| '''Figure 13''' shows the [[magnetic susceptibility]] plot of the above TBP which shows a gradual transition from LS (below 100 K) to HS (around 280 K). This gradual transition shows that not all of the Fe<sup>II</sup> centers simultaneously transitioned from the LS state to the HS state as the temperature increases. This confirms the “classical” SCO idea that the Mössbauer measurement had proposed.
| |
| | |
| Dunbar et al. also obtained X-ray crystallographic data for the TBP crystals at different temperatures. With respect to '''Figure 11''', the equatorial Fe(1) atom is on the left, Fe(2) is in the middle and Fe(3) is on the right. Crystallographic data showed that the average M-L bond lengths for Fe(2) and Fe(3) ions to their respective cyanide ligands at 30 K were 1.94 Å and 1.95 Å and 1.96 Å and 1.96 Å at 110 K, respectively,. This is typical and representative of a LS Fe<sup>II</sup> bond distance. The Fe(1) was significantly higher at 2.11 Å suggesting significant HS Fe<sup>II</sup> character even though typical values reported for HS Fe<sup>II</sup> sites are slightly higher. Typically, bond lengths determined by [[X-ray crystallography]] show a small decrease at increasing temperatures due to an increase in the amplitude of atom vibrations, which is the case seen here above 110 K for the average Co-N bond lengths (1.90 Å at 200 K and 1.89 Å at 298 K for the top axial Co<sup>III</sup> ion and 1.88 Å at 200 K and 1.84 Å at 298 K for the bottom axial Co<sup>III</sup> ion, '''Figure 11'''). This however, is not the case for the Fe-N bonds which show a systematic increase. At room temperature, 298 K, the average bond lengths for Fe(1) at 2.17 Å and Fe(3) at 2.15 Å, are typical for HS Fe<sup>II</sup>. The temperature induced change in the cluster geometry indicates a spin transition at this FeII sites. The Fe(2) site does not show a complete spin transition at room temperature however, with an average bond length of only 1.97 Å. Close examination of the crystal structure reveals that Fe(2) is slightly different from the other Fe<sup>II</sup> equatorial sites, in that the 3, 4, 7, 8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, (tmphen), ligands on the Fe(1) and Fe(3) centers are engaged in intramolecular p-p interactions with both of the tmphen ligands on the Fe(2) center. With the information provided by these three techniques, it can be concluded that the Fe<sup>II</sup> centers in this pentanuclear complex undergo SCO and that the phenomenon is affected by its coordination and solvent environment.

| |
| SCO is also influenced by the application of pressure which changes the population of the HS and LS states. Upon application of pressure, a conversion from the HS state to the LS state and a shift from T<sub>1/2</sub>, (the temperature at which half of the complex is in a LS state), to higher temperatures will occur. This is due to an increase in the zero point energy difference, ΔE°<sub>HL</sub>, caused by an increase in the relative vertical displacement of the potential wells and a decrease in the activation energy, ΔW°<sub>HL</sub>, which favors the LS state.<ref name="ksenofontov"/> '''Figure 14''' shows a schematic of the pressure influence on an Fe<sup>II</sup>-L compound and '''Figure 15''' shows the effect of pressure on the [[magnetic susceptibility]] of Fe(phen)<sub>2</sub>(SCN)<sub>2</sub>.

As a result of the application of pressure on the Fe(phen)<sub>2</sub>(SCN)<sub>2</sub> compound, the bond lengths are affected. The difference in M-L bond lengths in both HS and LS states changes the entropy of the system. The change in spin transition temperature, T<sub>1/2</sub> and pressure obeys the Clausius-Clapeyron relationship:<ref name="ksenofontov"/>

| A type of SCO is affected by Light Induced Excited Spin State Trapping ([[LIESST]]). In this approach HS and LS states can be triggered by irradiating the sample. At low temperatures it is possible to trap compounds in the HS state - a phenomenon known as the LIESST effect. The compound can be converted back to a LS state by irradiation with a photon of different energy. Irradiation of d-d transitions of the LS metal complex or MLCT absorption bands leads to population of HS states.<ref name='graaf'>{{cite journal|title = Study of the Light-Induced Spin Crossover Process of the [FeII(bpy)3]2+ Complex| author = Coen de Graaf and Carmen Sousa|journal = Chem. Eur.|year = 2010|volume = 16|issue = 15|pages = 4550–4556|doi = 10.1002/chem.200903423}}</ref> A good example to illustrate the LIESST effect is the complex [Fe(1-propyltetrazole)<sub>6</sub>](BF4)<sub>2</sub>. The sample was irradiated with green light at temperatures below 50 K. By doing this, a spin allowed transition is promoted which is <sup>1</sup>A<sub>1</sub> → <sup>1</sup>T<sub>1</sub>.<ref name="real"/> However, the <sup>1</sup>T<sub>1</sub> excited state has a very short lifetime, decreasing the probability for the excited state to relax via a double intersystem crossing to reach the <sup>5</sup>T<sub>2</sub> HS state .<ref name="real"/> Since the HS state is spin forbidden the lifetime for this state is long, therefore it can be trapped at low temperatures. '''Figure 17''' shows a simplified [[Jablonski diagram]] for these transitions. To recover the LS state, irradiation with a lower energy light is done. This promotes a transition from the HS state <sup>5</sup>T<sub>2</sub> → <sup>5</sup>E which allows for relaxation back to the LS state.

| Due to the aim to design photoswitchable materials that have higher working temperatures than those reported to date (~80 K), along with long-lifetime photoexcited states, another strategy for SCO called Ligand-Driven Light Induced Spin Change (LD-LISC) has been studied.<ref name='letard'>{{cite journal|title = Towards Spin Crossover Applications| author = Jean-François Létard, Philippe Guionneau and Laurence Goux-Capes|journal = Topics in Current Chemistry|year = 2004|volume = 235|pages = 1–19|doi = 10.1007/b95429|series = Topics in Current Chemistry|isbn = 3-540-40395-7}}</ref> This method consists of using a ligand that is photosensitive in order to trigger the spin interconversion of the metal ion and exciting this ligand with light. The LD-LISC effect is followed by a structural change of the photoresponsive ligands in contrast to the SCO process where the structures of the ligands are essentially unaffected. The driving force behind the metal ion SCO in this photochemical transformation is cis-trans [[photoisomerization]]. The prerequisite for LD-LISC to be observed is that the two complexes formed with the ligand photoisomers, must exhibit different magnetic behaviors as a function of temperature. Upon successive irradiations of the system at two different wavelengths within a temperature range where the metal ion can either be LS or HS, a spin-state interconversion should occur. In order to achieve this, it is convenient to design a metal environment to where at least one of the complexes exhibits a thermally induced SCO. The LD-LISC has been observed in several iron(II) and iron(III) complexes.

| The SCO phenomenon has uses in many applications such as switches, data storage devices and optical displays due to the inherent bistability (HS and LS) which leads to changes in the colour of the material and major magnetic changes.<ref name="guetlich"/> Molecular switches, like electrical switches, have the requirement for a mechanism that will turn the switch ON and OFF. The abrupt spin transitions with [[hysteresis]] can do exactly that. In order for the size of data storage devices to be reduced while the capacity of them increase, smaller units (such as molecules) that exhibit a bistability and thermal [[hysteresis]] are required.<ref name="guetlich"/> By developing new molecules that exhibit SCO, the response time can be decreased from nanoseconds as we know it, to femtoseconds. One of the advantages of SCO phenomena is the absence of fatigue, because there is an intraelectronic transition instead of an electron displacement through space. '''Figure 18''' shows a schematic of the two different output signals that can be obtained from an Fe<sup>II</sup> compound upon an external stimuli. Molecules that exhibit SCO are good candidates for molecular-based storage devices due to their very small size and high degree of control, provided they can be successfully immobilized on a surface with no change in properties. Optical displays can be achieved through the use of thermal perturbations on SCO systems that have a range of temperature, or a large [[hysteresis]] and therefore cooperativity. The systems can write an image to a screen when a thermal change induces the SCO.
