The bidentate N, N, donor phenyl-azo-naphthaldoxime NpLH, 1 was used to synthesize the ruthenium(II) complex trans-[Ru(NpL)(CO)Cl(PPh)], 2. It has been characterized by SCXRD, electrochemical and spectral studies. Computational analysis indicates that the low-lying π*-LUMO of the complex has substantial azo-character of coordinated ligand.

Article Synopsis
  • Non-aqueous Li-air batteries are gaining attention due to their potential, but efficient catalysts are needed to address slow reaction rates during charging and discharging.
  • A study on B/N-doped and BN co-doped fullerenes reveals that these doped structures have enhanced stability and catalytic properties compared to un-doped versions.
  • The findings suggest that boron-doped fullerenes outperform traditional catalysts like platinum and graphene in facilitating crucial reactions, indicating their promise as effective catalysts for lithium-air batteries.
