“…[34][35][36] In fact, some previous reports have proven that the above pentadentate Schiff base based iron(III) compounds are suitable candidates for assembling SCO materials under the help of the pyridine-like ligands 37,38 and some of the obtained complexes have been structurally characterized and experimentally magnetic investigated. Taking into account that the cyanometallic precursors with tunable coordination field, such as [M(CN) 4 ] 2-(M = Ni, Pd, Pt), [M'(CN) 2 ] -(M' = Cu, Ag, Au) and other polycyanometallates, have been widely employed to construct SCO materials, especially for those ones with Hoffman topologic structures, [39][40][41][42] the reactions of the pentadentate Schiff base iron(III) compound with the trans-dicyanoiron(III)/ cobalt(III) building blocks (Scheme 1), for the latter which has been extensively used to prepare cyanide-bridged molecular magnetic materials by our group, [43][44][45][46] 47,48 At the same time, by using 4,4'-bipy, 49 py or dmap (dmap = 4-dimethylaminopyridine) as ancillary ligand, three monometallic Fe(III) complexes with the formula [(Fe(L)) 2 (4,4'-bipy)](BPh 4 ) 2 (3), [Fe(L)(py)] (BPh 4 ) ( 4) and [Fe(L)(dmap)](BPh 4 ) ( 5) have been successfully obtained. The synthesis, crystal structures and magnetic properties for the reported complexes will be detailed described in this paper.…”
