Pentacyanoferrates(II): solvatochromism and reactivity in micelles and in reversed micelles
Abstract
Rate constants for dissociation of pyridine derivatives from pentacyanoferrates(II), [Fe(CN)5(Xpy)]3–, in micelles and in reversed micelles reflect significant interactions between the leaving ligands and the micelle or the water in the interior of the reversed micelle. These interactions can be probed through the solvatochromism of these pentacyanoferrates(II).
