Interaction of free-base corroles and W(CO)<sub>6</sub> has led to homoleptic bis(corrolato)tungsten(VI) sandwich complexes with rich optical and electrochemical properties. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis reveals that the two corroles are rotated by approximately 135° relative to each other, resulting in an overall chiral molecular geometry, as depicted below.
