Das Reduktionsverhalten von Pentacarbonylpyridin-Komplexen des Chroms, Molybdäns und Wolframs
(1984)
The reduction of group VIB metal pentacarbonyl complexes and of iodomethylates of 4- trimethylsilyl-, 4-acetyl- and 4-cyanopyridine has been investigated. Informations on the dissociation of the complexes and on the potential and reversibility of the one-electron reduction were obtained by cyclic voltammetry in DMF, whereas electron spin resonance (ESR) studies of the primary reduction products in the 4-acetylpyridine series revealed the distribution of the unpaired electron. The results suggest that the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) is a ligand centered π*-orbital in the 4-acetyl- and 4-cyanopyridine complexes, thus confirming assignments from photochemistry. The results allow an assessment of both N-coordination and substituent effects at the heterocyclic ligand.
