Single-molecule magnets represent the ultimate size limit for spin-based information storage
and processing; however, such applications require large spin relaxation barriers and …

Recent developments have helped to extend the repertoire of mixed‐valent ruthenium and
osmium complexes beyond conventional systems. This extension has been achieved by …

The potential of redox-active ligands to behave “noninnocently” in transition-metal
coordination compounds is reflected with respect to various aspects and situations. These …

The metal–metal interaction in ligand-bridged diruthenium (II, III) complex intermediates is
commonly characterized by using the redox potential difference, usually converted to the …

Dihydroxy-1, 4-benzoquinone (dhbq) has been extensively used as a ligand for generating
mono and polynuclear complexes. In recent years, new ligand classes have been …

The complexes meso-and rac-[(acac) 2Ru (μ-L) Ru (acac) 2] n, 1 and 2, where L2−= 1, 4-
dioxido-2, 3-bis (3, 5-dimethylpyrazol-1′-yl) benzene and acac−= 2, 4-pentanedionato …

The ability of a benzoquinonoid bridging ligand to mediate double-exchange coupling in a
mixed-valence Fe2 complex is demonstrated. Metalation of the bridging ligand 2, 5-di (2, 6 …

The currently available literature data on the synthesis, molecular and electronic structure of
mixed-ligand complexes (adducts) of transition metals (chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt …

A central theme in chemistry is the understanding of the mechanisms that drive chemical
transformations. A well-known, highly cited mechanism in organometallic chemistry is the …

The preparation and properties of novel ruthenium carbon-rich complexes for molecular
electronics are reported. The synthetic procedure used in this work led to the first series of …
