Abstract

The oligocyclosiloxane cluster (‘sandwich’) complex of Nd3+, Na6{[(C6H5SiO2)8]2Nd4(μ4-O)} has been prepared and characterized by analyses, infrared spectra, single crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetic susceptibility, conductivity and cyclic voltammetry. The μ4-O2− anion is in a square planar coordination environment. Electrochemical studies identify the cluster core as a moiety with a delocalized electron system.
