Coordination polymers have significant potential for new functionality paradigms due to the intrinsic tunability of both their electronic and structural properties. In particular, octacyanometallate-bridged coordination polymers have the extended structural and magnetic diversity to achieve novel functionalities. We demonstrate that [Mn(H2O)][Mn(HCOO)2/3(H2O)2/3]3/4[Mo(CN)8]路H2O can exhibit electrochemical alkali-ion insertion/extraction with high durability. The high durability is explained by the small lattice change of less than 1% during the reaction, as evidenced by ex situ X-ray diffraction analysis. The ex situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy revealed reversible redox of the octacyanometallate. Furthermore, the solid state redox of the paramagnetic [MoV(CN)8]3-/diamagnetic[MoIV(CN)8]4- couple realizes magnetic switching.
