Structural investigation of the bridged activated complex in the reaction between hexachloroiridate(IV) and pentacyanocobaltate(II).
Time resolved energy dispersive X-ray absorption spectroscopy has been used to follow the structural evolution of the inner-sphere electron transfer reaction between [IrCl6]2- and [Co(CN)5]3-, and to characterise the local structure of the iridium metal centre in the bridged activated complex formed during the reaction.
