Abstract
The oxidation reaction by the coordinated nitrosyl group in [Ru(NO)(NO 2)(M-tap)2](ClO4)2 (1) (M-tap = m-tolylazopyridine) is described. Comp lex 1 brings about the oxidative coupling of N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) to tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and the oxidation of RuCl2(bpy) 2 (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) to [RUCI2(bpy)2]+. These redox reactions have been studied voltametrically and the results have been analysed in terms of the electrophilicity of the coordinated NO' in 1.
