Within spin‐crossover solids… … strong intermolecular interactions afford a means for the propagation of molecular‐scale changes and coupling with crystallographic phase transitions, which leads to intricate cooperative phenomena. In their Full Paper on page 3120 ff. , J. S. Costa, O. Roubeau, G. Aromí et al. report on a novel spin‐crossover Fe II complex that features a dense network of intermolecular interactions. This results in a large unsymmetrical hysteresis of the spin state, which correlates with a crystallographic order–disorder transition.
