ABSTRACT
A bicyclic ligand platform for iron(II), which allows total control over the complex's magnetic properties in aqueous solution simply by varying one of the six coordination sites of the bispidine ligand, is reported. To achieve this, an efficient synthetic route to an N5 bispidine framework (ligand L4) that features an unsubstituted N-7 site is established. Then, by choosing appropriate N-7-coordinating substituents, the spin state of choice can be imposed on the corresponding ferrous complexes under environmentally relevant conditions in water and near-room temperature. Importantly, the first low-spin and diamagnetic iron(II) chelates in the bispidine series, both in the solid state and in aqueous solution, are reported. The eradication of head-on steric clashes between pendent coordinating arms is at the origin of this success. A new pair of constitutionally similar ferrous coordination compounds of a multidentate ligand system is obtained, which exhibits a distinctly binary (off-on) magnetic relationship. The new synthetic intermediate L4 may be substituted in just one step by any desired pendent arm, thus allowing access to complexes with finely tuned magnetic properties.
