A. Kotocova et J. Sima, ELECTROCHEMICAL-BEHAVIOR OF A SERIES OF FE(III) COMPLEXES WITH TETRADENTATE SCHIFF-BASE LIGANDS, Monatshefte fuer Chemie, 125(5), 1994, pp. 491-495
The electrochemical reduction of the Fe(III) complexes with a series o
f substituted N,N'-Ethylenebisacetonimines was investigated by cyclic
voltammetry in acetonitrile solution at a platinum electrode. The subs
tituent does not significantly influence the redox properties of the s
tudied complexes. The symmetry of the redox orbital is responsible for
the observed behaviour of the complexes.
