AI Article Synopsis
- A new trinuclear complex called [Ni{Rh(apt)}] was created featuring a nickel center in three oxidation states (+2, +3, +4).
- The nickel center is stabilized by six thiolato donors from two redox-inert fac-[Rh(apt)] octahedral units.
- The different oxidation states were thoroughly analyzed using techniques like single-crystal X-ray crystallography and various spectroscopic methods, revealing that conversions between states led to distinct changes in color, magnetism, and structural distortion (Jahn-Teller effect).
Article Abstract
Three oxidation states (+2, +3, +4) of an octahedral nickel center were stabilized in a newly prepared RhNiRh trinuclear complex, [Ni{Rh(apt) } ] (apt=3- aminopropanethiolate), in which the nickel center was bound by six thiolato donors sourced from two redox-inert fac-[Rh (apt) ] octahedral units. The three oxidation states of the octahedral nickel center were fully characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, as well as spectroscopic, electrochemical, and magnetic measurements; all three were interconvertible, and the conversion was accompanied by changes in color, magnetism, and Jahn-Teller distortion.
