Trust in experiments : As DFT calculations suggest that the hydrogen bonding of water molecules can stabilize a seven‐coordinate ruthenium–oxo complex to exhibit a singlet spin state, experiments have shown that the novel seven‐coordinate pentaganol‐bipyramidal ruthenium–oxo complex has a singlet ground state. Nevertheless, it displays the same reactivity as an analogous triplet‐state complex.
