Strong metal-to-ligand π-backbonding weakens the N[sbnd]N bond in 2-pyridinealdazine coordinated to tetraammine-ruthenium(II)
A new mononuclear Ru(II) complex of formula [Ru(NH3)4(2-PCA)](PF6)2, (1), with 2-PCA = 2-pyridinealdazine, has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques. The complete structure of (1) was determined by X-ray diffraction. A strong π-backbonding effect dπ(Ru) →...
