Abstract

The asymmetric binuclear complex [(dppe)Ni(μ-‘S, S’)Ni(L)](PF6)2 [L = (N, N′-diethyl-3,7-diazanonane-1,9-dithiolato)2−] shows a reversible one-electron reduction to afford a mixed-valent Ni(II)·Ni(I) species; the reduced complex has been characterised by EPR spectroscopy and mimics the redox active Nip site in the active A-cluster of acetyl coenzyme A synthase.
