The anodic oxidation of Co2Fv(CO)4, 1, has been studied in dichloromethane containing [NBu4][TFAB] (TFAB = [B(C6F5)4]−) as the supporting electrolyte anion. Voltammetric, amperometric, coulometric, and in situ spectroelectrochemical methods showed that 1 is oxidized in two one-electron steps to 1+ (E1/2 = 0.06 V) and 12+ (E1/2 = 0.51 V) in fast, diffusion-controlled processes without evidence of product adsorption at glassy carbon electrodes. Whereas the neutral compound has a transoid configuration of the two metals, IR and ESR spectra of the monocation 1+ are best interpreted as arising from a cisoid structure with a Co−Co bond. Analysis of the ESR data suggests that the SOMO of 1+ is significantly delocalized over the metal and ligand moieties. The discrete one-electron reactions of the 1/1+/12+ electron-transfer series stand in contrast to the direct two-electron processes observed for analogous group 6 and group 8 dileptic fulvalenediyl complexes. The radical cation 1+ undergoes rapid substitution of...
