Molecule-based spin state switching materials that display ambient temperature transitions with accompanying wide thermal hysteresis offer an opportunity for electronic switching, data storage, and optical technologies but are rare in existence. Here, we present the first 2D Hofmann-type materials to exhibit the elusive combination of ambient temperature spin crossover with wide thermal hysteresis (Δ<i>T</i> = 50 and 65 K). Combined structural, magnetic, spectroscopic, and theoretical analyses s ...[more]
