Estimation of Electron Distribution over Dinuclear Organometallic Molecular Wires by "IR Tag" Analysis of Ancillary Acyl-Cp Ligands.

ABSTRACT: Understanding the details of electronic properties of mixed-valence (MV) states of organometallic molecular wires is essential to gain insights into electron transfer phenomena. Although the field of MV chemistry is matured, there remain issues to be solved, which cannot be accessed by the conventional analytical methods. Here, we describe the synthesis and properties of diruthenium bridging (diethynylbenzene)diyl wires, (μ-p and m-C≡C-C₆H₄-C≡C){RuCp^R(dppe)}₂ 1, with the acyl-substituted cyclopentadienyl rings [Cp^R: Cp^e; η⁵-C₅H₄COOMe (a-series: ester derivatives), Cp^a; η⁵-C₅H₄COMe (b-series: acetyl derivatives)], w
