Spectroelectrochemical Characterization of the Two-Step Redox System {(μ-pz)[Os(CN)5]2}n- (n = 4, 5, 6; pz = Pyrazine). Similarities and Differences in Relation to the Creutz-Taube System

The pyrazine-bridged diosmium(II) complex {(μ-C4H4N2)[Os(CN)5] 2}6- has been synthesized as the hexapotassium salt and was converted to the hexakis(tetrabutylammonium) compound by ion exchange. Its stepwise oxidation to the Os2IIIOsII and Os2IIIOsIII states was monitored spectroelectrochemically in...
