Abstract

A new asymmetric mixed valence complex, K4[(edtaH)RuIIINCRuII(CN)5]· 2H2O, has been synthesized by aqua substitution reaction of [Ru(edtaH)H2O] by K4Ru(CN)6. Kinetic studies revealed an associative mechanism for the substitution reaction with a second order rate constant 13.8±0.6 M-1s-1at 25°C and pH = 5.0. This complex shows an MMCT maximum at 682 nm in water at 25°C. Thermochronism of the MMCT band has been discussed. On the basis of α2 (ground state delocalisation) and HAB (coupling integral) values this complex can be categorized as a Robin-Day class-II type complex.
