The specific features revealed in the structure of the d ³ Cr(III), d ² Cr(IV), d ¹Cr(V), and d ⁰ Cr(VI) peroxo complexes with the ratios M:O₂ = 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4 are considered. It is noted that, in eleven compounds of the general formula Cr(O₂)_nO_m A _p (n = 1, 2, 4; m = 0, 1; p = 0–4), the metal atoms can be in four oxidations states: +3 (d ³), +4 (d ⁴), +5 (d ¹), and +6 (d ⁰). This property distinguishes chromium peroxo compounds from molybdenum and tungsten dioxygen complexes, which, with one exception, are represented by the d ⁰ M(VI) compounds.
