Reversible structural isomerisation in rare thioether complexes of cobalt(ii)—effects of ligand architecture

Abstract

Rare examples of (high spin) Co(II) complexes with geometrically constrained tetrathioether ligands exhibit a very unusual structural isomerism, switching reversibly between tetrahedral monomers in solution and octahedral chain polymers in the solid; the crystal structures of one polymeric species and a tetrahedral monomer model compound are described.
