Redox Interconversion between Cobalt(III) Thiolate and Cobalt(II) Disulfide Compounds
Abstract
In contrast to cobalt, reaction of ligand
L1
SSL1 with [Fe(MeCN)6](BF4)2 did not yield the expected Fe(III) thiolate compound. This work is an unprecedented example of redox interconversion between a high-spin Co(II) disulfide compound and a low-spin Co(III) thiolate compound triggered by the nature of the anion.
