“…Redox isomerization is typically achieved by thermal action, application of high hydrostatic pressure or magnetic field, irradiation with light or X-rays, and so forth. This process is accompanied by alteration of optical and magnetic properties of the complexes, which can be read-out by physical–chemical measurements in order to form the basis of their practical applications. , This phenomenon is commonly studied on the examples of complexes formed by d-metals that are characterized by several accessible redox states, typically, vanadium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, and so forth, with non-innocent ligands such as diimines, dioxolenes, phenoxyls, tetrapyrrolic macrocycles, and so forth. Since the first publication in 1980 reporting on valence tautomerization of the cobalt complex with semiquinone and dioxolene ligands, , numerous examples of redox-isomeric d-metal complexes were described and comprehensively reviewed. − …”
