Abstract

Mononuclear Ru complexes of tetrazine derived L, RuII(acac)2(L) (1), [RuII(bpy)2(L)](ClO4)2 (2) and [RuII(bpy)(L)2](ClO4)2 (3) (L = 3-amino-6-(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)-1,2,4,5-tetrazine) were prepd. The free L exists as a dimeric entity in the solid state via H bonding interactions involving L and H2O mols. present in the crystal lattice. 1 Exhibits unusually strong bonds from RuII to coordinating pyrazolyl-N (2.040(2) \AA) and esp. to tetrazine-N (1.913(2) \AA). The RuIII/RuII couples of 1-3 appeared at 0.28, 1.34 and 1.50 V vs. SCE, resp. The tetrazine and bpy-based redns. were obsd. at -1.33 (1); -0.55 and -1.55/-1.75/-1.98 (2); -0.47…(more)
