Abstract
Here, we synthesized a valence tautomeric cobalt-dioxolene complex featuring a protected anchoring group. At room temperature, the complex reveals a nearly pure low-spin-Co(iii)-catecholate state in the solid state, but a nearly pure high-spin-Co(ii)-semiquinonate state in toluene solution. Thermal switchability of the complex in solution and in the solid state is investigated.
