Abstract

A new Rhenium (I) and Ruthenium(II) bimetallic polipyridilcarbonil complex and the corresponding monometallic precursor complexes were prepared. The compounds were characterized physically and spectroscopically (Elemental Analysis, Conductivity, Cyclic Voltammetry, IR-FT, RMN-H and UV-Visible). The results are consistent with the [Re(CO)3(2,2?-biquinoline)(4,4?-bipiridine](CF 3SO3) and RuCl2(CO)2(2,2?-biquinoline) formulation for the monometallic precursor complexes and with the [(CO)3(2,2?-biquinoline)Re(4,4?-bipiridine)RuCl(CO) 2(2,2?-biquinoline)] formulation for the bimetallic complex.
