Dioxygen activation by mixed-valent dirhodium complexes of redox non-innocent azoaromatic ligands.

The isolation, structural chracterisation and electronic structure of a formally mixed-valent Rh(-I)-Rh(III) complex is described, along with its reaction with dioxygen leading to double arene hydroxylation of the coordinated ligands.
