Synthesis and Electronic Structure of Pentacyanoosmate(II) Complexes with N-Heterocyclic Ligands
The series of complexes [OsII(CN)5L]n-, with L = pyridine or pyrazine derivatives, were prepared in aqueous solution and, in some cases, as sodium or potassium salts. The main feature in the UV-visible spectra is the appearance of an intense, asymmetric MLCT band, split under spin-orbit coupling. Th...

The series of complexes [OsII(CN)5L]n-, with L = pyridine or pyrazine derivatives, were prepared in aqueous solution and, in some cases, as sodium or potassium salts. The main feature in the UV-visible spectra is the appearance of an intense, asymmetric MLCT band, split under spin-orbit coupling. The energies and intensities of the MLCT bands decrease and increase, respectively, with the electron-acceptor ability of L, and strong solvatochromic energy shifts are observed in different organic media. The Os(II) complexes can be oxidized chemically or electrochemically to the Os(III) species; the latter show typical LMCT bands in the visible region, independent of L. The redox potentials for the OsIII.II couples (range 0.6-1.0 V (NHE)), shift positively when L becomes more electron-withdrawing or less basic. Reduction potentials for the bound and free Mepz+ ligand showed similar values, ca. -0.53 V (NHE), for the three [M(CN)5L]n- complexes, suggesting similar back-bonding abilities of Fe, Ru, and Os toward a given L ligand; this is confirmed by the linear plots with unit slope obtained for the energy of the MLCT bands of the [M(CN)5L]n- complexes (M = Fe, Ru) against the values for the [Os(CN)5L]n- complexes. The IR spectra show intense and weak bands at ca. 2050 and 2100 cm-1, associated with equatorial and axial cyanide stretchings, respectively.
