Octahedral to trigonal prismatic distortion driven by subjacent orbital π antibonding interactions and modulated by ligand redox noninnocence.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ru(ONO)2 and Os(ONO)2 distort from octahedral towards trigonal prismatic geometry in order to relieve π antibonding due to donation from the second-highest ligand orbital to the metal. Increasing oxidation of the ONO ligand suppresses distortion by increasing σ* interactions in the trigonal prism.

Redox-Active Metal-Organic Nanostructure Polymers and Their Remarkable Electrochemical Behavior
A number of redox-active coordination polymers (CPs) or metal- organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. This article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive CPs. It also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of CPs including...
متن کاملShaping and enforcing coordination spheres: probing the ability of tripodal ligands to favour trigonal prismatic geometry.
We report two tripodal frameworks, mono(2,2'-bipyrid-6-yl)bis(2-pyridyl)methanol () and bis(2,2'-bipyrid-6-yl)mono(2-pyridyl)methanol () which have one and two bipyridyl arms, respectively. Both ligands form complexes with the first row transition metals. Both ligands appear to overcome the steric strain involved in twisting the ligand to produce an octahedral complex and the solid state struct...
متن کاملNatural Bond Orbital (NBO) Population Analysis of Iridabenzene (C5H5Ir)(PH3)3
The molecular structure of iridabenzene (C5 H5 Ir)(PH3 )3 was calculated by the B3LYP density functional model using LANL2DZ basis set for Ir and 6-31G(d) for other atoms. The results from natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis have provided new insights into Ir–ligand bonding, the hybridization of atoms and the electronic structure of the title molecule. The NBO calculations show that σ(Ir-C2) bo...

In the crystal structure of the title polymeric compound, [C42H38N6O33Sr5.2(H2O)]n, five independent metal atoms (Sr1-Sr5) have different coordination environments. The Sr1 and Sr5 atoms are nine coordinated and feature distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic and capped square-antiprismatic geometries, respectively....
متن کاملType-Itemized Enumeration of RS-Stereoisomers of Octahedral Complexes
Stereoisograms of octahedral complexes are classified into five types (type I--typeV) under the action of the corresponding RS-stereoisomeric group. Their enumeration is accomplished in a type-itemized fashion, where Fujita's proligand method developed originally for combinatorial enumeration under point groups (S. Fujita, Theor. Chem. Acc., 113, 73--79 (2005)) is extended to meet the requireme...
