AbstractThe results of low temperature X‐ray determination, Mössbauer and magnetic measurement of spin‐crossover (isothiocyanato)(porphinato)iron(III) hemipyridine are reported. The features in 77 K Mössbauer spectrum include two doublets, one with a quadrupole splitting (ΔEQ) of 1.961 mm s−1(low‐spin site) and the other with ΔEQ= 0.792 mm s−1(high‐spin site). As the temperature of the sample is increased to 300 K, the signal intensity of the high‐spin site grows to 92% at the expense of the low‐spin signal. The variable‐temperature magnetic susceptibility data also support that the tetraphenyl complex is a s
