Reactions of ruthenium complexes having pyridyl-containing ligands, 2-pyridinecarboxylato and 2,2'-bipyridine, with an azide ion: formation of nitrido-bridged diruthenium complexes.
Reactions of ruthenium complexes having 2-pyridinecarboxylato and 2,2'-bipyridine ligands with sodium azide in alcohol afforded nitrido-bridged diruthenium complexes, [{Ru(OR)(pyca)(bpy)}2(mu-N)](+) (R = CH3, C2H5). Diruthenium complexes showed diamagnetic properties, a linear Ru-N-Ru coordination configuration, and two irreversible oxidation waves and two reversible reduction waves.
