Abstract
The suitability of [{(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )Fe(η 5 -C 5 H 4 )} 4 (η 4 -C 4 )Co(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )][PF 6 ] 2 , [1][PF 6 ] 2 , for use as a molecular quantum cellular automata (QCA) cell is demonstrated. To this end the structure of 1 in the solid state and the conversion of 1 to mono- and dicationic mixed-valence complexes have been accomplished. The latter compounds have been isolated as pure materials and characterized by IR, EPR, and Mössbauer spectroscopies and single-crystal XRD (monocation only) and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Near-IR spectra demonstrate the mixed valence character of the cations (valence trapped on the IR, EPR and Mössbauer time scales), and the energies of the intervalence charge-transfer bands provide a measure of the hole hopping frequency.
