Excited to share another paper from my PhD - out in Chemical Science!
First time valence tautomerism has occurred with a spin-state change in an iron complex. This allowed us to show light-induced valence tautomerism is possible for non-cobalt-dioxolene complexes.💎🧲⚗️

Thermal- and light-induced valence tautomerism with a concerted spin transition in an iron tris(diimine) complex
The switching phenomena of spin crossover (SCO) and valence tautomerism (VT) are respectively dominated by iron(ii) and cobalt-dioxolene systems. To explore new possibilities for SCO or VT, the redox-...

Every second, the Sun ejects 1.5 million tons of material into space at hundreds of miles per second, but Earth's magnetic field protects it from the solar wind.
