Research Abstract |
This project was planned to study kinetics of redox reactions of oxobridged dinuclear complexes of heavy transition elements with special attention to the protonation at the oxide bridge associated with the redox processes. It was proposed to study with rhenium complexes, since they would take variety of oxidation states than any other elements. We have prepared number of new rhenium di (mu-oxo) complexes with different oxidation states, (III,IV) and (IV,IV), with ligands such as tris (2-pyridylmethyl) amine and its analogs, and studied their redox behavior electrochemically. Kinetic study of their redox reactions in aqueous media helped to understand the role of protonation at the oxide bridge on the reduction rate. However, the study in acetonitrile medium, which was proved to be a better solvent to study the protonation effect in electrochemical study, was suffered from some side reactions and did not provide expected information. Subsequently, we studied electrochemical and kinetic studies of proton-coupled redox reactions of related mononuclear oxorhenium (V) complexes which involve new complexes such as trans-[Re(O)(OH)(ethylenediamine)2]^<2+> and trans-[Re(O)2(imidazole)4]^+ prepared and structurally characterized in this study, and found necessary kinetic information on the redox reactions in aqueous and acetonitrile solution. In the latter solvent, proton-coupled redox behavior was studied by adding proton-donors with various pK_a values. Further kinetic study of the reduction of a ruthenium dimer, [Ru2(mu-O)(mu-CH3COO)2(bpy)2(Meim)2]^<2+>(bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, Meim = 1-methylimidazole) gave some preliminary results on the effect of the protonation at the oxide bridge.
