<sup>The chemistry of rhenium complexes covers oxidation state +VII to -I. Some oxidation states such as +II are only rarely found in literature. One of the reasons is the lack of a suitable stable precursor for the oxidation state +II. However, we have developed a two step synthesis to the fully solvated Re(+II) complex [Re(NCCH</sup><sub>3</sub><sup>)</sup><sub>6</sub><sup>]</sup>2+<sup> from [ReO</sup><sub>4</sub><sup>]</sup>-<sup> via the rhenium bis-arene complex [Re(C</sup><sub>10</sub><sup>H</sup><sub>8</sub><sup>)</sup><sub>2</sub><sup>]</sup>+<sup>. This fully solvated Re(+II) was fully characterized by various spectroscopic manners, cyclic voltammetry, and X-Ray diffraction analysis. Its potential as a precursor for Re(+II) chemistry was explored with various substitutions reactions with phosphines and halides, and the obtained products were as well fully characterized.<br></sup>

Terpyridine-functionalized Ti nanospike electrodes (TiNS-SiTpy) were developed and applied to cyclic voltammetry and amperometry of Ln (La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, and Yb) ions and mixed Eu (III) + Ln (III) ions in a 0.1 M NaClO4 electrolyte. Electrodeposition was successfully performed over TiNS-SiTpy electrodes, which were fully examined by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL), and PL decay kinetics. The Gd and Tb ions were found to increase PL intensities with 10× longer lifetimes of 1.32 μs and 1.03 μs, respectively, compared with that of the electrodeposited Eu sample. The crystal phase and the oxidation states were fully examined for the mixed Ln (Eu + Gd and Eu + Tb) complex structures.

Bis/tris(phthalocyaninato) europium double- and triple-decker complexes Eu [ Pc (β- SC 6 H 13)8]2 (1) and Eu 2[ Pc (β- SC 6 H 13)8]3 (2) [ Pc (β- SC 6 H 13)8 = 2, 3, 9, 10, 16, 17, 23, 24-octakis(hexylthio)phthalocyaninate] have been synthesized and characterized by a series of spectroscopic methods including mass, NMR, electronic absorption and IR spectroscopy in addition to elemental analysis. Their molecular structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and electrochemical properties studied by cyclic voltammetry.

AbstractA novel redox-active calix[4]arene-TTF 5 was prepared by the reaction of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene 4 with the tosylated TTF 3 in the presence of cesium fluoride. The structure of the dyad 5 was identified by X-ray diffraction analysis, and the preliminary electrochemical properties of 5 were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), for which two reversible one-electron waves were observed. Moreover, the UV-vis absorption spectra studies show that the dyad 5 undergoes progressive oxidation at the TTF moiety in presence of increasing amounts of Cu2+ or Hg2+.

Starting from CH-acidic tetradentate ligands H2L (1) and triethylamine, the synthesis and characterisation of four dinuclear iron(III) and gallium(III) cryptands [M2(L)3] (3, 4) are reported. The structures of the ligand H2L (1a) and the triple helicate 3b were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The ferric complexes 3 were further characterised by Mössbauer spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. NMR spectroscopy proved the diamagnetic gallium(III) cryptands 4 to remain stable in solution for several days.

Overlapping absorption edges will occur when an element is present in multiple oxidation states within a material.DetOxis a program for partitioning overlapping X-ray absorption spectra into contributions from individual atomic species and computing the dependence of the anomalous scattering factors on X-ray energy. It is demonstrated how these results can be used in combination with X-ray diffraction data to determine the oxidation state of ions at specific sites in a mixed-valance material, GaCl2.

Ferrocene (FcH) derivatives monosubstituted by palmitoyl (1), hexadecyl (2), 1-adamantoyl (3) or 1-adamantylmethyl (4) groups were sythesized and characterized by NMR, mass and 57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. The structure of 1-adamantoylferrocene was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Cyclic voltammetry on gold and glass-like carbon electrodes demonstrated that the compounds can serve as electrochemical standards for special cases since their ferrocene/ferricinium redox potential remains stable and reversible, while the properties such as solubility, diffusion coefficients and surface tension are strongly solvent-dependent.

Thermolysis of [8,8-(PMe2Ph)2-nido-8,7-PtCB9H11] in boiling toluene solution results in an elimination of the platinum centre and cluster closure to give the ten-vertex closo species [6-(PMe2Ph)-closo-1-CB9H9] in 85% yield as a colourles air stable solid. The product is characterized by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Crystals (from hexane-dichloromethane) are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with a = 903.20(9), b = 1 481.86(11), c = 2 320.0(2) pm, β = 97.860(7)° and Z = 8, and the structure has been refined to R(Rw) = 0.045(0.051) for 3 281 observed reflections with Fo > 2.0σ(Fo). The clean high-yield elimination of a metal centre from a polyhedral metallaborane or metallaheteroborane species is very rare.
