Stepwise oxidation of three communicating metal centres: electrochemistry of trinuclear trindenyl complexes of manganese or rhodium
Abstract
Trinuclear manganese or rhodium complexes of the trindenyl (Td) ligand undergo three separate 1 eā-oxidation reactions, with an abnormally large separation in potentials between the second and third oxidations of [Td{Rh3(cod)3}].
