A functional ruthenium(ii) complex, [Ru(bpy)2(AN-bpy)](PF6)2 (bpy: 2,2'-bipyridine, AN-bpy: 4-methyl-4'-(4-amino-3-nitro-phenoxy-methylene)-2,2'-bipyridine), has been designed and synthesized as a turn-on luminescent probe for the imaging of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) in living cells. Due to the intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer (PET), the ruthenium(ii) complex itself is almost non-lu...

IN THE CATION OF THE TITLE SALT (SYSTEMATIC NAME: 5-{5-chloro-3-[4-(methyl-sulfon-yl)phen-yl]-2-pyrid-yl}-2-methyl-pyridinium 2,4,6-trinitro-phenolate), C(18)H(16)ClN(2)O(2)S(+)·C(6)H(2)N(3)O(7) (-), the mean planes of the two pyridine rings in the bipyridine unit are twisted by 33.9 (2)° with respect to each other. The dihedral angles between the mean planes of the sulfonyl-benzene ring and th...

We study the electrochemical, spectroscopic, and photocatalytic properties of a series of Ru(II)-Re(I) binuclear complexes linked by bridging ligands 1,3-bis(4'-methyl-[2,2']bipyridinyl-4-yl)propan-2-ol (bpyC3bpy) and 4-methyl-4'-[1,10]phenanthroline-[5,6-d]imidazol-2-yl)bipyridine (mfibpy) and a tetranuclear complex in which three [Re(CO)3Cl] moieties are coordinated to the central Ru using th...

This short note describes the synthesis of compound 6,6′-di-(2″-thiophenol)-2,2′-bipyridine from its methyl phenyl sulfane precursor via deprotection groups. The product as well intermediate in synthetic route have been characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, 1H- and 13C-NMR FT-IR HR-MS analysis. work presents a rare example tetradentate chelators that bears pyridyl backbones thiophenol donors fo...

It has been established that approximately 80% of a 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine glycol-dioxoosmium(vi)-bipyridine ternary complex, which is known to be produced as one of various consequences of oxidative damage of DNA and is formed in a key step of a recently developed DNA methylation detection method, has the 5R,6S configuration.

Two heteroleptic nickel oxothiolate complexes, namely [Ni(bpy)(mp)] (1) and [Ni(dmbpy)(mp)] (2), where mp = 2-hydroxythiophenol, bpy 2,2?-bipyridine dmbpy 4,4?-dimethyl-2,2?-bipyridine were synthesized characterized with various physical spectroscopic methods. Complex 2 was further by single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The complex crystallizes in the monoclinic P 21/c system its neutral for...

In the mononuclear title complex, [Zn(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(C(2)H(6)OS)(2)](C(24)H(20)B)(2)·C(2)H(6)OS, the Zn(II) ion is coordinated by four N atoms of two bidentate 2,2'-bipyridine mol-ecules and by the O atoms of two cis-disposed dimethyl sulfoxide mol-ecules in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The S atom and the methyl groups of one of the coordinated dimethyl sulfoxide mol-ecules are disorder...
