Abstract
Both the Creutz-Taube ion (H3N)5Ru(m-pz)Ru(NH3)55+ (I) and the new stable complex mer-(OC)3(PR3)2W(m-pz)W(PR3)2(CO)3+ (II; R = CHMe2) contain d5/d6 mixed valent metal centers bridged by pyrazine (pz). II is distinguished from I by stronger charge-transfer interaction, higher comproportionation const., lower intervalence transition band energy and less pronounced g anisotropy in the ESR spectrum. Vibrational data suggest delocalized structures for both systems. on SciFinder(R)
