A new fused ring compound, 2,6-dibutyl-4,8-dimethyl-1,5-dihydro-s-indacene (VII) (H2L), has been synthesized from 2,5-dimethyl-1,4-dibromomethylbenzene in almost quantitative yield. Two organomtallic binuclear complexes, [Cp*Fe-L-FeCp*] (1) and the mixed-valence compound [Cp*Fe-L-FeCp*]+ BF–4 (2), have been characterized by spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques. The cyclic voltammogram of 1 exhibits a potential difference of 668 mV between two redox peaks and the UV-vis-NIR spectra of compound 2 shows an intervalance charge transfer band at 1794 nm. The information gathered by these techniques indicates that the studied binuclear complex has strong interaction between the two metal centres.

Cs2SbCl6 is known as a typical mixed-valence compound. It crystallizes into a tetragonal space group I41/amd and contains two different complex anions, Sb(III)Cl3-6 and Sb(V)Cl-6 . The dark blue color of this compound has been considered to originate from a charge transfer between the above two anions. In order to study the electronic structure of these complex anions and the existence of charge transfer between them we measured the 121Sb NMR spectrum and carried out molecular orbital calculations on the electronic states of these anions. The 121Sb NMR spectrum consists of two peaks at 0 and 30 kHz which can be assigned to the central transition of 121Sb in Sb(V)Cl-6 and Sb(III)Cl3-6 , respectively. The line shape analyses of the spectra led to nuclear quadrupole coupling constants of nearly zero for Sb(V)Cl-6 and 4.9 ± 0.5 MHz for Sb(III)Cl3-6 at room temperature. The quadrupole coupling constant of 121Sb(III) decreases steadily on heating. The calculations of the electronic ground state energies of both anions were calculated by the MS-Xα molecular orbital method. The calculated charge-transfer band from the A1g state of Sb(III)Cl3-6 to the A1g state of Sb(V)Cl-6 appears at 610 nm and can account for the experimental electronic spectrum, the calculated quadrupole coupling constant in Sb(III)Cl3-6 however is far larger than the experimental one. The contribution of the charge-transferred state to the ground state is negligible and so the temperature dependence of the quadrupole coupling constant of 121Sb(III) is attributed to an anisotropic thermal expansion of the compound.

Mono-((Z)-2-amino-3-((E)-ferrocenylideneamino)butenedinitrile) (1) and bis-((E)-2,3-bis-((E)-ferrocenylideneamino)butenedinitrile) (2) substituted Schiff bases obtained by the reaction between ferrocenecarbaldehyde and diaminomaleonitrile were prepared and characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, IR, and UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy methods, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. Density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory were used to elucidate the electronic structure and the origin of observed excited states in both compounds. Electrochemical techniques were employed to investigate the possibility for the formation of a mixed-valence state of the iron centers in 2+, which are connected by a conjugated π-system. Two reversible oxidation potentials were observed in cyclic voltammetry, and spectroelectrochemical experiments revealed the presence of a low-energy intervalence charge transfer band in 2+, corresponding to class II of the mixed-valence systems. Both complexes were tested for cation-recognition properties using a variety of main group and transition-metal cations. It was shown that complex 1 can be used as a selective optical sensor in recognition of Hg2+ ions. It was also shown by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography that one of the final reaction products between Hg2+ ions and complex 1 is 2-ferrocenyl-4,5-dicyanoimidazole (3).
