Abstract
Neutral Ru(II) complexes with the formula trans-[Ru(trpy*)(L2)(pcyd)] have been prepared, where trpy*Â =Â 4,4â²,4â³-tri-tert-butyl-terpyridine, L2Â =Â 2-pyrazinecarboxylato (pca), 2-pyridinecarboxylato (pic), acetylacetonato (acac) and pcyd is a substituted phenylcyanamido ligand. Spectroelectrochemistry was performed on these Ru(II) complexes to obtain the visible absorption spectrum of the Ru(III)-cyanamide ligand-to-metal charge transfer chromophore. The Ru(III)-cyanamide coupling elements of these singly charged Ru(III) complexes were comparable to those of doubly charge complexes in the literature.
