A net change: A fully reversible ligand substitution involving coordination/uncoordination of gaseous water and pyrimidine induces the repetitive allosteric transformation of three interpenetrated nets into a single three‐dimensional net. The transformation does not affect the crystallinity of the sample but alters significantly the spin‐crossover transition; the compound shows magnetic and chromatic bistability (see picture).
