Geometric and redox flexibility of pyridine as a redox-active ligand that can reversibly accept one or two electrons

Abstract

A low-coordinate iron(I) species can reversibly reduce pyridine, either by one electron to give a new C–C bond, or by two electrons to give a pyridine-derived bridge with an unprecedented μ-η13 binding mode.
