Abstract
The redox properties of twenty bisarenechromium complexes have been studied by the rotating disk electrode technique in an aprotic solvent (DMSO). The half-wave potentials, E 1/2, have been found to correlate well with the meta-substituent constants. The conclusion is drawn that the electronic effects of substituents are mainly transferred to the reaction centre (the metal atom) by the inductive mechanism. The conjugation of substituents with the coordinated ring is weaker in bisarenechromium complexes than in ferrocene derivatives.
