Abstract: | Summary The preparation of isomeric complexes OsIIIX2L2]ClO4· H2O {(4)} and (5): X = Cl or Br, L(1) = 2-(phenylazo)-pyridine (L1) or 2-(m-tolylazo)pyridine(L2)] via stereo-retentive oxidation of the corresponding osmium(II) precursors (2) and (3), respectively] is described. The complexes were characterized using spectroscopic and electrochemical methods. The low-spin (idealized t

; S = 1/2) paramagnetic complex ions display characteristic osmium(III) e.p.r. spectra in frozen (-196° C) MeCNPhMe. In dry MeCN solution, the OsX2N4 unit exhibits irreversible OsX2L2]2+/OsX2L2]+ and reversible OsX2L2]+/OsX2L2] couples at ca. 1.8 and 1.0 V versus saturated calomel electrode (s.c.e.), respectively. The use of (4)/(5) as an oxidant is noted. |
