Abstract
Three new diruthenium compounds, Ru2(L1)4Cl (1), Ru2(L2)4Cl (2) and Ru2(ap)4F (3) were synthesized and characterized, where L1, L2, and ap are 2-(3-methoxyanilino)pyridinate, 2-(3-propoxyanilino)pyridinate, and 2-anilinopyridinate, respectively. Structural study revealed the Ru–Ru bond lengths of 2. 2816(7) A (1) and 2. 2785(6) A (3). All three compounds are S = 3/2 molecules. Each of three diruthenium compounds displays two reversible one electron couples, an oxidation and a reduction, and the potential data appear to indicate that the axial fluoro ligand is a much stronger donor than the chloro ligand.
