Resonance Raman and Electronic Spectra of Mixed Valence Compounds with Ni(II)---X-Ni(IV) and Ni(II)---X-Pt(IV) Chains (X = Cl or Br)

Abstract

The resonance Raman and electronic spectra of compounds Ni(en)₂X₃, Ni(dapn)₂X₃ etc. and of compounds [Ni(en)₂Pt(en)₂X₂](ClO₄)₄ (where X = Cl or Br) show that those are mixed valence compounds with a metal halide chain (en = 1,2-diaminoethane, dapn = 1,2-diaminopropane).
