24. For technical reasons, it was not possible to record resonance Raman spectra of the reduced species in situ in the OTTLE cell. It would clearly be of interest to have such spectra of the reduced anion, with both metal centers still in the Ru(II) state, for comparison with the spectra of the MLCT excited state of 2. Such studies are planned.
