Why is it important?
Structural and electronic bistability at nearly ambient condition
Perspectives
Overall the results show how critical is the role of the intermolecular interactions on the occurrence of the ETCST phenomenon, and thus how difficult could be the prediction of the electronic state of these {FeCo} charge transfer molecules in the solid state. However these switchable FeCo squares complexes still represent interesting model compounds and we are currently investigating a broader family through joint theoretical–experimental investigation in order to investigate more deeply the role of solid-state interactions on the ETCST process.
