چکیده

Fully reversible photoswitching of the coordination mode of the ligand MeN4Py (1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)-N,N'-bis(pyridin-2-yl-methyl)-ethan-1-amine) in its ruthenium(II) complex with visible light is reported. Irradiation with visible light results in dissociation of a pyridyl moiety, which is reversed by irradiation at 355 nm.

Mechanistic insights into electrocatalytic CO2 reduction within [Ru(II)(tpy)(NN)X]n+ architectures.

A series of Ru(II)-polypyridyl complexes of the design [Ru(II)(tpy)(NN)X](n+) (tpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine; NN = bidentate polypyridine; X = Cl(-) or CH3CN; n = 1 or 2) have been synthesized and analyzed for their ability to function as electrocatalysts in the reduction of CO2 to CO. Varying the electron-donating/withdrawing character of the NN polypyridyl ligand has allowed for modification ...

Construction of a photoactive supramolecular system based on a platinum(II) bis-acetylide building block incorporated into a ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complex.

A new ruthenium(ii) polypyridyl-platinum(ii) diethynyl triad containing 3-ethynylphenanthroline linked by platinum(ii) bis-tributylphosphine organometallics, Ru(ii)-Pt(ii)-Ru(ii), and platinum(ii) bis-ethynylphenanthroline complex has been prepared. The ruthenium(ii)-metal triads, Ru(ii)-M-Ru(ii) (M = Pt(ii) and Au(i)), showed typical MLCT absorption bands and a lowest energy pi-pi* absorption ...

DNA binding, cytotoxicity, and apoptotic-inducing activity of ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complex.

There is considerable interest in the interactions of ruthenium (Ru)(II) complexes with DNA as well as the biological impact of the interactions. Here, by using isothermal titration calorimetry, viscosity measurement, and circular dichroism, we investigated the interactions of a new Ru(II) complex, [Ru(dmp)(2)PMIP](2+){dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, PMIP = 2-(4-methylphenyl)imidazo[4,5...

Pushing the limit: synthesis, photophysical and DNA binding studies of a NIR-emitting Ru(II)-polypyridyl probe with 'light switch' behaviour.

The new Ru(II) polypyridyl complex 1 was synthesised using microwave irradiation from the new polypyridyl ligand 2'DipyTAP', and its photophysical properties, and DNA binding abilities were investigated using various spectroscopic techniques; and 1 was shown to act as a 'NIR molecular light switch' for DNA with an emission window between 680 and 860 nm.
