A mononuclear Fe(Ⅲ) complex, [Fe^Ⅲ(bzimpy-1H)₂]Cl (1) was prepared by the reaction of a tridentate ligand 2, 6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine (bzimpy), where bzimpy-1H is the product of bzimpy after removing one proton, and its structure and magnetic properties were characterized in detail. The single crystal structure analysis shows that the Fe³⁺ center features a rare distorted octahedral N₆ coordination environment for the complex, and the 3D supramolecular structure is constructed by N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding between the adjacent cation complex units and counterbalance chloride ions. The complex showed hysteretic spin-crossover (SCO) behavior above room temperature as evidenced by combined magnetic investigations and differential scanning calorimetry measurements (T_1/2↑=345 K, T_1/2 ↓=330 K). In addition, the light-induced excited spin state trapping (LIESST) effect was also observed in the complex. The magnetism-structure relationship shows that the N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding plays an important role in the bistable SCO behavior of the complex.
