An interesting series of binuclear ruthenium (III) Schiff base complexes bearing bis- salophen/bis-naphophen units of the general composition [(EPh3)(X) Ru-L-Ru (X)(EPh3)](where E= P or As; X= Cl or Br; L= binucleating dianionic tetradentate ligands) have been synthesized and characterized by analytical (elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements), spectral (FT-IR, UV–vis and EPR) and electrochemical ...
