Abstract
The formation of Co(III)-thiolate complexes from Co(II)-disulfide complexes using the anionic ligand 8-quinolinolate (quin-) has been studied experimentally and quantum chemically. Two Co(II)-disulfide complexes [Co2(LxSSLx)(Cl)4] (x = 1 or 2; L1SSL1 = 2,2'-disulfanediylbis(N,N-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)ethan-1-amine; L2SSL2 = 2,2'-disulfanedylbis (N-((6-methylpyridin-2-yl)methyl)-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl) ethan-1-amine) have been successfully converted with high yield to their corresponding Co(III)-thiolate complexes upon addition of the ligand 8-quinolinolate. Using density functional theory (DFT) computations the d-orbital splitting energies of the cobalt-thiolate compounds [Co(L1S)(quin)]+ and [Co(L2S)(quin)]+ were estimated to be 3.10 eV and 3.07 eV, indicating a slightly smaller ligand-field strength of ligand L2SSL2 than of L1SSL1. Furthermore, the orientation of the quin- ligand in the thiolate compounds determines the stability of the thiolate complex. DFT computations show that the thiolate structure benefits from more electrostatic attraction when the oxygen atom of the quin- ligand is positioned trans to the sulfur atom of the [Co(L1S)]2+ fragment. Quin- is the first auxiliary ligand with which it appeared possible to induce the redox-conversion reaction in cobalt(II) compounds of the relatively weak-field ligand L2SSL2.

Abstract
Self-assembly and characterisation of a supramolecular trigonal bipyramidal iron cage containing an [FeIII(μ2-F)6(FeII)3]3+ star motif at its core is reported. The complex can be formed in a one step reaction using an heterotopic ligand that supports site-specific incorporation of iron in three distinct electronic configurations: low-spin FeII, high-spin FeII and high-spin FeIII, with iron(II) tetrafluoroborate as the source of the bridging fluorides. Formation of a μ2-F bridged mixed-valence FeII-FeIII star is unprecedented. The peripheral high-spin FeII centres of the mixed-valence tetranuclear star incorporated in the iron cage are highly anisotropic and engage in F-mediated antiferromagnetic exchange with the central FeIII ion.

Abstract
![]()
The redox interconversion
between Co(III) thiolate and Co(II) disulfide
compounds has been investigated experimentally and computationally.
Reactions of cobalt(II) salts with disulfide ligand L1SSL1 (L1SSL1 = di-2-(bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino)-ethyl
disulfide) result in the formation of either the high-spin cobalt(II)
disulfide compound [CoII2(L1SSL1)Cl4] or a low-spin, octahedral cobalt(III) thiolate
compound, such as [CoIII(L1S)(MeCN)2](BF4)2. Addition of thiocyanate anions to
a solution containing the latter compound yielded crystals of [CoIII(L1S)(NCS)2]. The addition of chloride
ions to a solution of [CoIII(L1S)(MeCN)2](BF4)2 in acetonitrile results in conversion
of the cobalt(III) thiolate compound to the cobalt(II) disulfide compound
[CoII2(L1SSL1)Cl4], as monitored with UV–vis spectroscopy; subsequent addition
of AgBF4 regenerates the Co(III) compound. Computational
studies show that exchange by a chloride anion of the coordinated
acetonitrile molecule or thiocyanate anion in compounds [CoIII(L1S)(MeCN)2]2+ and [CoIII(L1S)(NCS)2] induces a change in the character
of the highest occupied molecular orbitals, showing a decrease of
the contribution of the p orbital on sulfur and an increase of the
d orbital on cobalt. As a comparison, the synthesis of iron compounds
was undertaken. X-ray crystallography revealed that structure of the
dinuclear iron(II) disulfide compound [FeII2(L1SSL1)Cl4] is different from that
of cobalt(II) compound [CoII2(L1SSL1)Cl4]. In contrast to cobalt, reaction of ligand
L1SSL1 with [Fe(MeCN)6](BF4)2 did not yield the expected Fe(III) thiolate compound.
This work is an unprecedented example of redox interconversion between
a high-spin Co(II) disulfide compound and a low-spin Co(III) thiolate
compound triggered by the nature of the anion. Low-spin
CoIII−thiolate compounds and
high-spin CoII and FeII disulfide compound have
been synthesized from reactions of a disulfide ligand with CoII and FeII salts. The redox interconversion between
the cobalt compounds has been investigated. It is shown that addition
of chloride ions to a solution of the CoIII−thiolate
compound results in the formation of the CoII-disulfide
compound, whereas removal of chloride anions from the CoII disulfide compound regenerates the CoIII−thiolate
complex.
