Title: Synthesis, characterization and solution behavior of a systematic series of pentapyridyl-supported Ru II complexes: comparison to bimetallic analogs

Journal Article · · Dalton Transactions
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1039/C7DT01847A· OSTI ID:1476319

A series of pentapyridyl-supported Ru(ii) complexes are synthesized and characterized using X-ray crystallography, UV-Vis,1H NMR and cyclic voltammetry. Moreover, these monometallic species are compared with previously reported bimetallic analogues with regards to their structure and ligand substitution behavior.
