Descripción
We report on the synthesis and properties of a family of linear cyanide bridged mixed-valence heptanuclear complexes with the formula: trans-[L₄Ruᴵᴵ{(μ-NC)Feᴵᴵᴵ(NC)₄(μ-CN)RuᴵᴵL′₄(μ-NC)Feᴵᴵᴵ(CN)₅}₂]⁶⁻ (with L and L′ a para substituted pyridine). We also report on the properties of a related pentanuclear complex. These oligomers were purified by size exclusion chromatography, characterized by electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry and elemental analysis, and their linear shape was confirmed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). These complexes present a rich electrochemistry associated with the seven redox active centers. The redox potential split of identical fragments indicates that there is considerable communication along the cyanide bridged backbone of the compounds, even for centers more than 3 nm apart. This small attenuation of the interaction at long distances make these cyanide bridged compounds good candidates for molecular wires. Interestingly, the extent of the communication depends on the relative energy of the fragments, as evaluated by their redox potentials, providing a guide for improvement of this interesting property.
