We report on transport measurements on single molecules with spin degrees of freedom.

Fe2+-bis(pyrazolyl)pyridine is known as a spin transition compound, in which the Fe2+ atom carries either no spin or S = 2, depending on its local environment. We find qualitatively different zero bias anomalies at very low temperatures, in particular a Kondo feature, but also an unconventional dip-like feature in dI/dV. The anomalies and their behavior in magnetic fields are explained by singlet-triplet transitions and magnetic anisotropy.

In addition, a Bis(Co2+)bipyrimidine-wire is investigated, with two Co2+ ions. Here, we see two states in the low-bias anomaly, referring to a singlet and multiplet states of the ion pair.
