Feeling the strain : The first example of metal–metal bonding between strained [ n ]metallocenophanes is reported. A dicarba[2]ruthenocenophanium dimer has been synthesised through the oxidation of a dicarba[2]ruthenocenophane (see figure). The structural and electrochemical characterisation of the dimer is also discussed.
