Probing the electronic delocalization in a cyclic pyrazine ruthenium cluster hexamer

[Ru3O(CH3COO)6(pz)(CO)]6 is a cyclic hexamer species encompassing six triangular ruthenium cluster centers bridged by pyrazine ligands. The electronic communication among the cluster units strongly depends on their oxidation states, and has been successfully probed by means of cyclic voltammetry and UV–vis spectroelectrochemistry.
