Abstract
The electron transfer series [M(bpy)3]n+ (M = Y, Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta; n = 1+ to 3-) has long been known, but the electronic structures of their members remain unclear. In response, we have augmented the published spectroscopic data with our own, and performed DFT calculations to rationalize it all. This has allowed definitive assignment of their electronic structures and provided evidence that all the redox processes are largely ligand centered.
