{TpRe(bpy)}: A novel pentaaminerhenium system that stabilizes both high and low oxidation states (Tp = hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate; bpy 2,2 '-bipyridyl)
Tb. Gunnoe et al., {TpRe(bpy)}: A novel pentaaminerhenium system that stabilizes both high and low oxidation states (Tp = hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate; bpy 2,2 '-bipyridyl), INORG CHEM, 39(26), 2000, pp. 6127
The complexes [TpRe(bpy)(CI)]OTf and TpRe(bpy)-(eta (2)-cyclopentene) can b
e prepared from TpRe(Cl-2)(O= PMe3). The stability of rhenium in both low a
nd high oxidation states is attributed to the flexible electronic nature of
the polypyridyl and pyrazolyl ligands.
