Abstract

The complex framework Ru(tpy)(dpk)2+ has been used to study the generation and reactivity of the nitrosyl complex Ru(tpy)(dpk)(NO)3+ (43+). Stepwise conversion of the chloro complex Ru(tpy)(dpk)(Cl)+ (1+) via Ru(tpy)(dpk)(CH3CN)2+ (22+) and the nitro compound Ru(tpy)(dpk)(NO2)+ (3+) yielded 43+; all four complexes were structurally characterized as perchlorates. Electrochemical oxidation and reduction was investigated as a function of the monodentate ligand as was the IR and UV-vis spectroscopic response (absorption/emission). The kinetics of the conversion 43+/3+ in aqueous environment were also studied. Two-step reduction of 43+ was monitored via EPR, UV-vis, and IR (nu(NO), nu(CO)) spectroelectrochemistry to confirm the RuNO7 configuration of 42+ and to exhibit a relatively intense band at 505 nm for 4+, attributed to a ligand-to-ligand transition originating from bound NO-.
