Spin-crossover compounds are becoming increasingly popular for device and sensor
applications, and in soft materials, that make use of their switchable colour, paramagnetism …

Synthetic procedures are available for the derivatisation of almost every position of the 2, 6-
di (pyrazol-1-yl) pyridine (1-bpp) skeleton. This has led to the preparation of a large number …

Previous studies on bimetallic paddlewheel compounds have established a direct
correlation between metal–metal distance and ligand torsion angles, leading to the rule that …

This tutorial review describes how complexes of iron (II)(and, rarely, other metal ions) can be
switched between their high-and low-spin states by different physical stimuli. At low …

Reactive metal–ligand (M–L) multiply bonded complexes are ubiquitous intermediates in
redox catalysis and have thus been long-standing targets of synthetic chemistry. The …

This article surveys the relationship between ligand type, coordination geometry and metal
spin state in complexes of iron and other metal ions. Compounds and materials containing …

The amidinate anions have been widely used in the formation of dinuclear complexes with
paddlewheel structure. The higher donor character of this type of ligands, compared to …

The complete series of [Ru2Cl (Dp-FPhF) x (O2CCH3) 4− x](x= 1–4; Dp-FPhF−= N, N′-bis
(4-fluorophenyl) formamidinate) compounds, has been prepared and characterized by a …

The elusive monosubstituted diruthenium complexes [Ru 2 Cl (DAniF)(O 2 CMe) 3](1),[Ru 2
Cl (DPhF)(O 2 CMe) 3](2),[Ru 2 Cl (Dp-CNPhF)(O 2 CMe) 3](3),[Ru 2 Cl (Do-TolF)(O 2 CMe) …

Reactions of Ru 2 n+[n= 4 for Ru 2 (OAc) 4 and n= 5 for Ru 2 (OAc) 4 Cl] with H 2 CDC (9H-
3, 6-carbazoledicarboxylic acid), H 2 BBDC (5-tert-butyl-1, 3-benzenedicarboxylic acid) and …
