Flip to be square : Structural, spectroscopic, magnetic, and photomagnetic studies conclusively demonstrate that a tetranuclear cyanometalate {Fe 2 Co 2 } complex undergoes reversible thermally and light‐induced changes in its optical and magnetic properties. This bistability is induced by an intramolecular electron transfer, as observed in three‐dimensional Co/Fe Prussian blue compounds (see picture).
