Polypyridine Os

The data presented in this article are relevant to the research article, “Electrochemistry of Os bipyridyl and phenanthroline complexes, comparison with Ru and Fe” (van der Westhuizen, 2020). Cyclic voltammograms illustrating OsII/III oxidations of eight osmium(II) complexes are presented in this article. The data were obtained under similar experimental conditions, at scan rates with magnitudes ranging from 0.05 V.s−1 to 10.00 V.s−1, in acetonitrile as solvent and tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate as supporting electrolyte. Potentials are reported versus the iron(II) redox couple in ferrocene.
