Abstract
A variable temperature specular reflectance cell for thin layer spectroelec trochemistry (SEC) in the infrared and W-Vis regions was employed to study the reduction of neutral Fe(CO)(3)(eta(4)-NBD) (1) (NBD = 2,5-norbornadiene ) to its radical-anion Fe(CO)(3)(eta(4)-NBD) (1(.-)). Together 1 and 1(.-) comprise an unusual case where a dynamic contribution to IR spectral featur es can be observed in one redox state (1),but not the other (1(.-)). (C) 19 99 Elsevier Science S.A.
