RESUMO

The complexes trans-[RuCl2(L)4] (L = py, isn, 4-acpy e 3-acpy), trans-[RuCl(NO)(L)4](PF6)2 (L = py, isn e 4-acpy), trans-[Ru(OH)(NO)(py)4](PF6)2, trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]Cl23H2O, trans-[Ru(OH)(NO)(py)4]Cl2, cis-[RuCl2(DMSO)4], trans-[Ru(NO2)2(py)4], trans-[RuCl(NO2)(py)4], trans-[RuCl(acn)(py)4](PF6) and the reduced complex trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]I were synthesized. The compounds were analyzed and characterized by elemental analysis of CHN, 1H NMR, UV-vis and IR spectroscopies, electrochemical techniques and EPR. The elemental analyses and 1H NMR spectra were consistent with the proposed structures indicating the purity of the compounds, according to these techniques. The UV-vis spectra of the complexes are similar to those of related complexes. However, for trans-[RuCl(NO)(L)4](PF6)2 (L = py, isn e 4-acpy) and trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]Cl23H2O, the band between 300-400 nm, usually seen in other nitrosyl ruthenium complexes spectra, as tetraamines and bipyridines complexes, was not observed. The IR spectra for nitrosyl complexes showed the stretching frequency band (NO) between 1870 -1920 cm-1, which is consistent with the nitrosonium character of these compounds. The reduced complex trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]I shows a NO band in 1854 cm-1 (acetonitrile). This value is consistent with the NO band shift observed during the trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]2+ reduction electrolysis. The assignment of this band to NO0 is consistent with the EPR studies, whose spectra showed a NO0 coordinated signal for the reduced complex trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]I and for the electrolyzed solution of trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]2+. The electrochemical studies for trans-[RuCl2(L)4] (L = py, isn, 4-acpy e 3-acpy) show a reversible reduction process assigned to RuIII/RuII, whose Ef increases with the -acceptor ability of the L ligand. In acetonitrile, the electrochemical behavior of trans-[RuCl(NO)(L)4](PF6)2 (L = py e 4-acpy), showed two reduction processes. The first is a reversible process assigned to 6/7 and the second is an irreversible process assigned to 7/8. The trans-[RuCl(NO2)(py)4] complex is formed during the reduction electrolysis of trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]2+ in acetonitrile with Eapplied = -0,535 and -1,435 V vs Fc+/Fc. The trans-[RuCl(acn)(py)4](PF6) is also formed after the NO release (only Eapplied = -1,435 V vs Fc+/Fc). In aqueous solution, the trans-[RuCl(NO)(py)4]2+ electrochemical behavior is different from that in acetonitrile. The cyclic voltammograms show three reduction processes. The first is a reversible process assigned to 6/7, the second is irreversible assigned to 7/8 and the third is a NO- NH3 four electron reduction. The electrolysis in aqueous solution generated another specie besides trans-[RuCl(NH3)(py)4]+, which should be the trans-[RuCl(H2O)(py)4]+ (or trans-[RuCl(OH)(py)4], depending on the pH) following the NO release. The great -acceptor ability of the L ligand in the ruthenium equatorial plane, presented in this work, reflects in many properties, such as: MLCT energy, reduction potential and the coordinated water acidity in trans-[Ru(NO)(H2O)(py)4]3+, (pKa <1), which increases substantially compared to trans-[Ru(NO)(H2O)(NH3)4]3+ (pKa is 3,1).
