Polymorphism of a chiral iron(ii) complex: spin-crossover and ferroelectric properties†
Abstract
Two solvent-free polymorphs of a chiral iron(II) complex have been obtained, and their polymorphism dependent spin-crossover and ferroelectric properties have been demonstrated. Polymorph I shows a gradual spin-crossover behavior, whereas polymorph II remains in a high-spin state but shows a typical ferroelectric feature.
