Front Cover: Structural, Electronic, and Thermochemical Preference for Multi‐PCET Reactivity of Ruthenium(II)‐Amine and Ruthenium(IV)‐Amido Complexes (Eur. J. Inorg. Chem. 39/2021)

Abstract

The Front Cover shows the transfer of two electrons and two protons, and how they help each other move along the bridge. This is a picture of what we have seen in this Ru‐bisamido model complex where the potential inversion favors this multi‐redox reactivity. The stabilization produced by Ru−N bonding stabilizes the full transfer of two electrons which are accompanied by protons. This is a step in our learning of this complex four‐particle transfer process. These studies bring tools to further understand the increased complexity of multi‐PCET reactions.
