19. With consideration of the coordinated atoms in three pairs, viz. Cl/Cl, N(py)/N(py), and and N(azo)/N(azo) the stereochemistry of the isomers can be defined by setting the relative positions (cis (c) or trans (t)) within the pair of identical atoms.

35. This reaction does not occur in a redox-inert solvent such as acetonitrile.
36. 2. Admittedly, the proposal is not a unique rationalization of the experimental results. It, however, appears to be the most plausible one.
37. 2 is cathodic by ca. -1.0 V as compared to that in 1.
