Dinitrosyl complexes of rutheninm and osmium and their reaction with oxygen
Abstract
The preparation of M(NO)2L2(M = Ru, Os; L = PPh3) and their oxidation to an oxygen complex Ru(O2)(NO3)(NO)L2, and to hydroxy-dinitrosyl cations, [M(OH)(NO)2L2]+, having both linear and bent M–N–O groups is described.
