19F NMR study of ligand dynamics in carboxylate-bridged diiron(ii) complexes supported by a macrocyclic ligand
Using VT 19F NMR spectroscopy, we explored the intramolecular dynamics of a family of carboxylate-bridged diiron(ii) complexes, [Fe2(X2PIM)(ArRCCO2)2]. The data are consistent with these complexes undergoing μ–η1:η2 to μ–η1:η1 carboxylate shifts.
