We report a single example of thermal spin crossover in a series of Fe<sup>III</sup> complexes, [Fe<sup>III</sup>(R-sal<sub>2</sub>323)]<sup>+</sup>, which typically stabilize the low-spin (<i>S</i> = 1/2) state. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of 53 such complexes with varying "R" groups, charge-balancing anions, and/or lattice solvation confirms bond lengths in line with an <i>S</i> = 1/2 ground state, with only the [Fe<sup>III</sup>(4-OMe-sal<sub>2</sub>323)]NO<sub>3</sub> complex ( ...[more]
