Voltammetric Characterization of trans-Dioxo Ethylenediamine Complexes of Re(V) in Aqueous Solutions.
The electrochemical behavior of trans-[Re((V))O(2)(en)(2)]I and trans-[Re((V))O(2) (en)(2)]ClO(4) (en=ethylenediamine) complexes was studied by cyclic voltammetry on Au electrodes. Experiments were performed in aqueous solutions at pH 7.0 and at room temperature. The complex voltammogram was characterized by Re-containing species, assigned to the [Re((V))O(2)(en)(2)](+)/[Re((IV))O(2)(en)(2)] couple, and I-containing species. To overcome I interference, the electrochemical response of Re complexes was segregated by performing a reductive desorption of adsorbed I from Au. Copyright 2001 Academic Press.
