Pressure Effect Studies on the Spin-Transition Behavior of a Dinuclear Iron(II) Compound

Magnetic studies into the effect of different hydrostatic pressures between ambient and 1.03 GPa on the high-spin (HS) i low-spin (LS) transition behavior of the dinuclear iron(II) compound [Fe II 2(PMAT)2](BF4)4·DMF (1, PMAT = 4-amino3,5-bis{[(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]methyl}-4H-1,2,4-triazole, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) have been carried out at 2– 300 K. Under ambient pressure, the sample studied exhibits a [HS–HS] to [HS–LS] half spin transition (ST) at T½ = 208 K without any thermal hysteresis. Increasing the pressure above 0.2 GPa causes an increase (initially rapid but above 0.5 GPa more gradual) of T½ as well as a matching reduction in the residual high-spin fraction at room temperature. This paper probes in detail how the increased pressure favors the
