The titanium(IV) complex of a hexadentate tricatechol ligand: synthesis, crystal structure and electrochemistry

Abstract

The tricatechol ligand, tripace, forms an octahedral complex with TiIV; the complex possesses a protonated central nitrogen atom in the ‘in’ conformation and is stable towards reduction up to E1/2=–1.02 V vs. standard calomel electrode.
