چکیده

The Ru-Ru bond length for Ru2II,III and Ru2II,II paddlewheel complexes containing the bulky carboxylate ligand 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoate was found to decrease despite a reduction in Ru-Ru bond order, due to increased internal rotation.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Magnetic Properties of Amidate and Carboxylate Dimers of Ruthenium

Solvothermal and microwave-assisted methods have been used to prepare several amidate and carboxylate complexes of the type [Ru2X(μ-NHOCC6H3-3,5-(OMe)2)4]n [X = Cl (1), Br (2), I (3)] and [Ru2X(μ-O2CC6H3-3,5-(OMe)2)4]n [X = Cl (4), Br (5), I (6)]. Complexes 4–6 have also been obtained by conventional synthesis which is ineffective to prepare the amidate compounds. However, single crystals of co...
