Fine tuning of intra-lattice electron transfers through site doping in tetraoxolene-bridged iron honeycomb layers

The precise control of intra-lattice multiple electron transfers was demonstrated in the solvated and desolvated species of the tetraoxolene-bridged Fe honeycomb layer system, (NPr4)(2)[Fe-2(Cl(2)An)(3)]center dot(solv) (Cl(2)An(n-)= 2,5-dichloro-3,6-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinonate; NPr4+= tetrapropylammonium cation), by the site-doping of the Cl(2)An(n-)bridging unit using X(2)An(n-)units with X = Br or F.
