TLDR
In this article, the triplet state of benzophenone oxidizes Ni((14)aneN/sub 4/sup 2 +/ to a Ni(III) intermediate which subsequently produces the dimer of the complex as a product.
Abstract
The triplet state of benzophenone oxidizes Ni((14)aneN/sub 4//sup 2 +/ to a Ni(III) intermediate which subsequently produces the dimer of the complex as a product. The nature of the product was confirmed by structural studies. (Ni(13-At))/sup +/ reacts with the triplet of fluorenone and /sup 2/Estate of Cr(bpy)/sub 3//sup 3 +/ forming also a dimer in a reaction that involves different intermediates. Intermediates in the photoinduced oxidations of the macrocycles have been investigated by flash photolysis. The mechanism of the photoinduced oxidation is discussed in terms of the reported properties of the macrocycles.

Homoleptic Complexes of 2,2′-Bipyridine

TL;DR: The homoleptic 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) ligand is a strong field ligand that forms relatively stable complexes, with the inherent M-N bond strength enhanced by the chelate effect as mentioned in this paper.

Role of Ligand to Control the Mechanism of Nitric Oxide Reduction of Copper(II) Complexes and Ligand Nitrosation

TL;DR: It is evident from the present study that the macrocyclic ligands prefer the deprotonation pathway leading to mononitrosation; whereas nonmacrocyclic ones prefer the [Cu(II)-NO] intermediate pathway resulting into nitrosation at all the available sites of the ligand as major product.

Redox behaviour of dioxotetraaza macrocyclic nickel complexes in aqueous solution: the appearance of two metal centred redox processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the potentials of the NiIII/II(L)+/0 couple were shown to refer to the redox transition in complexes with oxidized macrocyclic derivatives of 1 and 3 containing azomethine bonds formed as a result of base-catalyzed transformation of NiIII(L)+.
