One-electron oxidation of the compound shown shows no evidence for intervalence charge transfer in the macrocylic ligand radical product. In contrast, related [{Pt(L)}3(μ3-ctc˙)]+ (H6ctc = cyclotricatechylene), exhibits class II mixed valency.

A transition of mixed-valence systems from Class II to Class III crossing the Class II–III borderline is achieved by four thienylene-bridged Mo2 dimers, and is probed using spectral parameters of intervalence charge transfer absorption (band energy, intensity and shape). This study offers fresh and detailed observations of optical behaviors of MV compounds in different regimes.

We report the synthesis of a new bistriarylamine series having a urea bridge and investigate its mixed-valence (MV) states by electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical methods. We found that the supporting electrolytes had unusual effects on potential splitting during electrochemical behavior, in which a smaller counteranion thermodynamically stabilized a MV cation more substantially than did a bulky one. The effects contrary to those reported in conventional MV systems were explained by zwitterionization through hydrogen bonding between the urea bridge and the counteranions, increasing the electronic interactions between two triarylamino units. Furthermore, we clarified the intervalence charge transfer characteristics of the zwitterionic MV state.
