An In Silico Design Tool for Fe(ll) Spin Crossover and Light-Induced Excited Spin State-Trapped Complexes.

The article presents a study that demonstrates how ligand-field molecular mechanics (LFMM) can be utilized to design new spin crossover (SCO) and light-induced excited spin state trapping (LIESST) complexes. The study is conducted through the reevaluation of the new designs with density functional t...

Sumario:The article presents a study that demonstrates how ligand-field molecular mechanics (LFMM) can be utilized to design new spin crossover (SCO) and light-induced excited spin state trapping (LIESST) complexes. The study is conducted through the reevaluation of the new designs with density functional theory (DFT). Results of the study conclude that the search for new SCO and LIESST systems require better theoretical tools.
