An anionic organic mixed-valence system with a remarkably well-resolved vibrational structure in its intervalence band.
The reduction of a phenylene-bridged bis(dioxaborine) affords a strongly delocalised organic mixed-valence system; for the first time details of the vibrations coupled to the electron transfer have been extracted from the intervalence band.
