Spin doesn't matter : A ruthenium(II)–aqua complex bearing a pentadentate pyridylamine with a carboxylate group as a ligand affords a seven‐coordinate low‐spin ( S =0) ruthenium(IV)–oxo complex (see structure) by oxidation through proton‐coupled electron transfer. Comparison of the reactivity of the low‐spin and an intermediate‐spin ( S =1) Ru IV –oxo complexes revealed that the spin state does not affect the reactivity of catalytic oxidation of organic compounds.
