A Series of [Fe-II(L)(2)](BF4)(2) compounds were structurally and physically characterized (L = 2,6-bis(2-inethylthiazol-4-yl)pyridine). A crystal structure phase transformation from dihydtate compound 1 to anhydrous compound 3 through partially hydrated compounds 2 and 2' upon dehydration was found. Compounds 1 arid 3 exhibited a gradual spin crossover (SCO) conversion, whereas compounds 2 and 2' demonstrated two-step and one-step abrupt SCO transitions, respectively. An X-ray single-crystal structural analysis revealed that one-dimensional and two-dimensional Fe cation networks linked by pi stacking and sulfur-sulfur interactions. were formed in 1 and 3, respectively. A thermodynamic analysis of the magnetic susceptibility for 1, 2', and 3 suggests that the enthalpy differences may govern SCO transition behaviors in the polymorphic compounds 2' and 3. A structural comparison between 1 and 3 indicates that the SCO behavior variations and crystal structure transformation in the present [Fe-II(L)(2)](BF4)(2) compounds can be interpreted by the relationship between the lattice enthalpies mainly arising froth Coulomb interactions between the Fe cations and BF4 anions as in typical ionic crystals.
