Abstract
The photoredox ability of a hexarhenium(III) cluster, (n-Bu4N)(4) (4+)[Re-6 (mu(3)-S)(8)Cl-6](4-), was examined in acetonitrile on the basis of emissio n quenching experiments of the cluster by several neutral electron accepter s. The quenching rate constants and the relevant activation parameters indi cated that the hexarhenium(III) cluster acted as a useful photoredox sensit izer towards various electron accepters.
