The crystal structures in both irradiated and nonirradiated states of a photoinduced molecular switch based on the spin-crossover phenomenon are presented. From the structural point of view, the light-induced metastable high-spin state of the spin-crossover complex [Fe(phen)2(NCS)2] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) shows significant differences with the low-spin state but also with the thermally induced high-spin state.
