Electrically responsive structural transformations triggered by vapour and temperature in a series of pleochroic bis(oxalato)chromium(iii) complex salts

Abstract

Complex salts of DABCO- and ABCO-based cations and bis(oxalato)chromium(iii) anions, prepared by a simple and environmentally friendly approach, exhibit stimuli-responsive structural transformations involving desolvation and resolvation processes.
