Abstract

Oxidation and reduction of bis (imino) pyridine iron dinitrogen complexes have been explored and compounds that differ by four oxidation states have been prepared. The role of the redox-active bis (imino) pyridine has been established and rare examples of trianionic chelates have been identified.
