RESUMO

The electrochemical reduction behavior of the complexes trans-[Ru(NH3)4P(OEt)3NO]2+ was investigated in order to determine the possibility of these complexes to serve as nitroxyl donors (HNO/NO-). Special emphasis was given when L = P(OEt)3. Using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse, square wave voltammetry and spectroelectrochemistry techniques was possible to infer that the ion complex trans-[Ru(NH3)4P(OEt)3NO]2+ suffers an one electron reduction generating the ion complex trans-[Ru(NH3)4P(OEt)3NO]+. Analyzing the behavior of the cyclic voltammetry spectra, is possible to conclude that the process is irreversible by spin restrictions. The reaction of the ion complex trans-[Ru(NH3)4P(OEt)3NO]+ with the reductor agent alpha-ketoglutarate (Ered = -0,90V), a two electron reductor by outersphere pathway, was monitored by electrochemistry and UV-vis spectroscopy techniques using Mb-Fe(III) as a selective nitroxyl scavenger. The results obtained with these experiments confirm the original purpose of this study.
