Abstract
We report a series of complexes synthesized from the chemical reduction of the fac-tricarbonyl complex Re(bpy)(CO)(3)Cl. Synthesis and characterization of [Re(bpy)(CO)(3)](2), [Re(bpy)(CO)(3)](2)(-), and Re(bpy)(CO)(3)(-) are presented. The Re(bpy)(CO)(3)(-) anion has long been postulated as the active species that reacts with carbon dioxide in the electrochemical reduction of CO(2).Entities:
