Abstract
The first single crystal-based description of a spin transition compound from the patented[Fe(Rtrz)(3)]X-2 center dot nH(2)O family is reported, properly the compound with Rtrz = 4-amino-1,2, 4-triazole, X = NO3 and n = 2. This study definitively proves the 1-D polymeric nature of the crystal structure and allows a description of the [Fe(Rtrz)(3)] chains, as well as of the anions and water implementation within the crystal lattice opening the possibility of subsequent investigations of the structure-property correlation within this peculiar family of spin transition compounds.
