Abstrakt: The reaction of [Fe II (L . ) 2 ](BF 4 ) 2 with Li 2 TCNQF 4 results in the formation of [Fe III (L - ) 2 ][TCNQF 4 . - ] (1) where L . is the radical ligand, 4,4-dimethyl-2,2-di(2-pyridyl)oxazolidine-N-oxide and TCNQF 4 is 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane. This has been characterised by X-ray diffraction, Raman and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility, Mössbauer spectroscopy and electrochemistry. X-ray diffraction studies, magnetic susceptibility measurements and Raman and FTIR spectroscopy suggest the presence of low-spin Fe III ions, the anionic form (L - ) of the ligand and the anionic radical form of TCNQF 4 ; viz. TCNQF 4 . - . Li 2 TCNQF 4 reduces the [Fe II (L . ) 2 ] 2+ dication, which undergoes a reductively induced oxidation to form the [Fe III (L - ) 2 ] + monocation resulting in the formation of [Fe III (L - ) 2 ][TCNQF 4 . - ] (1), the electrochemistry of which revealed four well-separated, diffusion-controlled, one-electron, reversible processes. Mössbauer spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements suggest the presence of a minor second species, likely to be [Fe II (L . ) 2 ][TCNQF 4 2- ].
