Abstract

Carboxylate exchange reactions between Ru 2(DArF) 3(OAc)Cl ( 1) and 1,1′-ferrocene dicarboxylic acid resulted in the new compounds [Ru 2(DArF) 3Cl] 2(μ-1,1′-(O 2CFcCO 2) ( 3), where DArF is either N, N′-di(3,5-dichlorophenyl)formamidinate (D(3,5-Cl 2Ph)F, a), or N, N′-di(3-methoxyphenyl)formamidinate (DmAniF, b). The exchange reactions between Ru 2(DArF) 2(OAc) 2Cl ( 2) and 1,1′-ferrocene dicarboxylic acid yielded the new compounds Ru 2(DArF) 2(O 2CFcCO 2)Cl ( 4a and 4b). The dimeric nature of compounds 3 was confirmed by both the MS data and an X-ray structural study of 3b. The monomeric nature of compounds 4a and 4b was confirmed by the MALDI-TOF MS data. Both compounds 3 and 4 were also characterized with cyclic (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements.
