Abstract

Sixteen structures of eight analogical Fe(II) macrocyclic complexes have been investigated exhibiting distinguishable structural properties even though no spin-crossover is observed. Notwithstanding, due to a synergistic effect between ligand field strength and intermolecular interaction, two of these complexes present very rare evidence for metal-ligand bond break at low temperature.
