using a 500 MHz Bruker Avance III at 25 °C unless stated otherwise.
Chemical shifts (δ) are given in ppm and referenced to residual
proton chemical shifts from the NMR solvent for 1H and 13C{1H} spectra. UV–vis spectroscopy was
performed inside a MBraun Unilab Plus glovebox using a fiber-optic
AvaSpec-2048L photospectrometer with an AvaLight-DH-S-BAL light source
and 400 μm cables (Avantes). Data was collected between 250
and 1000 nm with an integration time of 4 ms.
Single-crystal
X-ray diffraction analysis was carried out using a RIGAKU SuperNova,
Dual,Cu a zero EoS2 single-crystal diffractometer. Mass spectrometry
was carried out at the Material and Chemical Characterization Facility
at the University of Bath using a Bruker MaXis HD ESI-QTOF.
