Its geometry is characterized by X-ray crystallography. The Os^IV/Os^lll reduction potential is 0.45 V vs. SCE.

The results are compared with the help of partial structure factors determined primarily by the non-zero interaction between the components in the mixture and found to be satisfactory. Partial molar volumes and isothermal compressibilities have been calculated from the hard sphere mixture theory.

The tluorophore forms 1:1 complexes with all the three cyclodextrins (CD). The TICT emission is extremely weak in pure water but it is enhanced as the probe is encapsulated within the cyclodextrin cavities. The relative enhancement of the emission from the TICT species to the locally excited (LE) species is maximum in the &alpha;-CD environment and minimum in the &upsih;-CD environment. This differential enhancement of the two emission bands in different aqueous CD solutions has been explained on the basis of the polarity factor. It has been suggested that the polarity of the microenvironment is the principal controlling factor for the TICT process.
