[OsIII(tpy)(Cl)(NCCH3)(NSAr)]: Reversible Reduction of Acetonitrile by OsIII-Sulfilimido Complexes

The reversible two‐electron reduction of an acetonitrile ligand to the corresponding imine has been demonstrated for the first time with the title compound. Electrochemical reduction generates the OsIII–imino product [Eq. (a)], which can be isolated as the PF6− salt and used in further reactions for...

Zusammenfassung:The reversible two‐electron reduction of an acetonitrile ligand to the corresponding imine has been demonstrated for the first time with the title compound. Electrochemical reduction generates the OsIII–imino product [Eq. (a)], which can be isolated as the PF6− salt and used in further reactions for the reduction of organic carbonyl compounds.
