Abstract
Photochemical ligand release from metal complexes may be exploited in the development of novel photoactivated chemotherapy agents for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. Highly intriguing photochemical behavior is reported for two ruthenium(II) complexes bearing conformationally flexible 1,2,3-triazole-based ligands incorporating a methylene spacer to form 6-membered chelate rings. [Ru(bpy)2(pictz)]2+ (1) and [Ru(bpy)2(btzm)]2+ (2) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl; pictz = 1-(picolyl)-4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole; btzm = bis(4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methane) exhibit coordination by the triazole ring through the less basic N2 atom as a consequence of chelation and readily undergo photochemical release of the pictz and btzm ligands (ϕ = 0.079 and 0.091, respectively) in acetonitrile solution to form cis-[Ru(bpy)2(NCMe)2]2+ (3) in both cases. Ligand-loss intermediates of the form [Ru(bpy)2(κ1-pictz or κ1-btzm)(NCCD3)]2+ are detected by 1H NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Photolysis of 1 yields three ligand-loss intermediates with monodentate pictz ligands, two of which form through simple decoordination of either the pyridine or triazole donor with subsequent solvent coordination (4-tz(N2) and 4-py, respectively). The third intermediate, shown to be able to form photochemically directly from 1, arises through linkage isomerism in which the monodentate pictz ligand is coordinated by the triazole N3 atom (4-tz(N3)) with a comparable ligand-loss intermediate with an N3-bound κ1-btzm ligand also observed for 2.

Abstract
Light-triggered dissociation of ligands forms the basis for many compounds of interest for photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT), in which medicinally active substances are released or "uncaged" from metal complexes upon illumination. Photoinduced ligand dissociation is usually irreversible, and many recent studies performed in the context of PACT focused on ruthenium(II) polypyridines and related heavy metal complexes. Herein, we report a first-row transition metal complex, in which photoinduced dissociation and spontaneous recoordination of a ligand unit occurs. Two scorpionate-type tridentate chelates provide an overall six-coordinate arylisocyanide environment for chromium(0). Photoexcitation causes decoordination of one of these six ligating units and coordination of a solvent molecule, at least in tetrahydrofuran and 1,4-dioxane solvents, but far less in toluene, and below detection limit in cyclohexane. Transient UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and quantum chemical simulations point to photoinduced ligand dissociation directly from an excited metal-to-ligand charge-transfer state. Owing to the tridentate chelate design and the substitution lability of the first-row transition metal, recoordination of the photodissociated arylisocyanide ligand unit can occur spontaneously on a millisecond time scale. This work provides insight into possible self-healing mechanisms counteracting unwanted photodegradation processes and seems furthermore relevant in the contexts of photoswitching and (photo)chemical information storage.

Abstract
AbstractEin genaues Verständnis der Faktoren, welche die Lumineszenzlebensdauer von Übergangsmetallverbindungen bestimmen, ist für Anwendungen in der Photokatalyse und der photodynamischen Therapie von entscheidender Bedeutung. Die im Falle von [Ru(bpy)3]2+ (bpy=2,2’‐Bipyridin) allgemein akzeptierte Theorie besagt, dass die Emissionslebensdauer durch Optimierung der Energiebarriere zwischen dem emittierenden Triplett‐Zustand des Metall‐Liganden‐Ladungstransfers (3MLCT) und dem thermisch aktivierten Triplett‐Zustand des Metall‐Zentrums (3MC), oder der Energielücke zwischen beiden Zuständen gesteuert werden kann. Hier zeigen wir, dass dies nicht allgemeingültig ist. Darüber hinaus demonstrieren wir, dass die Betrachtung eines einzelnen Relaxationspfades, der vom energetisch niedrigsten Minimum aus bestimmt wird, zu falschen Vorhersagen der temperaturabhängigen Emissionslebensdauer führt. Stattdessen erhalten wir eine ausgezeichnete Übereinstimmung mit den experimentellen temperaturabhängigen Lebensdauern, wenn ein erweitertes kinetisches Modell herangezogen wird, welches alle Pfade im Zusammenhang mit mehreren Jahn–Teller‐Isomeren und ihren effektiven Reaktionsbarrieren beinhaltet. Diese Konzepte sind für das Design weiterer lumineszierender Übergangsmetallkomplexe mit individuell angepassten Emissionslebensdauern auf der Grundlage theoretischer Vorhersagen unerlässlich.

Abstract
Understanding the factors that determine the luminescence lifetime of transition metal compounds is key for applications in photocatalysis and photodynamic therapy. Here we show that for[ Ru ( bpy ) 3 ] 2 + ${[{\rm{Ru}}({\rm{bpy}})_{\rm{3}} ]^{{\rm{2 + }}} }$ (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), the generally accepted idea that emission lifetimes can be controlled optimizing the energy barrier from the emissive triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (3 MLCT) state to the thermally-activated triplet metal-centered (3 MC) state or the energy gap between both states is a misconception. Further, we demonstrate that considering a single relaxation pathway determined from the minimum that is lowest in energy leads to wrong temperature-dependent emission lifetimes predictions. Instead, we obtain excellent agreement with experimental temperature-dependent lifetimes when an extended kinetic model that includes all the pathways related to multiple Jahn-Teller isomers and their effective reaction barriers is employed. These concepts are essential to correctly design other luminescent transition metal complexes with tailored emission lifetimes based on theoretical predictions.

Abstract
Ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes form a vast family of molecules characterized by their finely tuned photochemical and photophysical properties. Their ability to undergo excited-state deactivation via photosubstitution reactions makes them quite unique in inorganic photochemistry. As a consequence, they have been used, in general, for building dynamic molecular systems responsive to light but, more particularly, in the field of oncology, as prodrugs for a new cancer treatment modality called photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT). Indeed, the ability of a coordination bond to be selectively broken under visible light irradiation offers fascinating perspectives in oncology: it is possible to make poorly toxic agents in the dark that become activated toward cancer cell killing by simple visible light irradiation of the compound inside a tumor. In this Perspective, we review the most important concepts behind the PACT idea, the relationship between ruthenium compounds used for PACT and those used for a related phototherapeutic approach called photodynamic therapy (PDT), and we discuss important questions about real-life applications of PACT in the clinic. We conclude this Perspective with important challenges in the field and an outlook.

Abstract
Photoactive complexes with earth-abundant metals have attracted increasing interest in the recent years fueled by the promise of sustainable photochemistry. However, sophisticated ligands with complicated syntheses are oftentimes required to enable photoactivity with nonprecious metals. Here, we combine a cheap metal with simple ligands to easily access a photoactive complex. Specifically, we synthesize the molybdenum(0) carbonyl complex Mo(CO)3(tpe) featuring the tripodal ligand 1,1,1-tris(pyrid-2-yl)ethane (tpe) in two steps with a high overall yield. The complex shows intense deep-red phosphorescence with excited state lifetimes of several hundred nanoseconds. Time-resolved infrared spectroscopy and laser flash photolysis reveal a triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (3MLCT) state as the lowest excited state. Temperature-dependent luminescence complemented by density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest thermal deactivation of the 3MLCT state via higher lying metal-centered states in analogy to the well-known photophysics of [Ru(bpy)3]2+. Importantly, we found that the title compound is very photostable due to the lack of labilized Mo-CO bonds (as caused by trans-coordinated CO) in the facial configuration of the ligands. Finally, we show the versatility of the molybdenum(0) complex in two applications: (1) green-to-blue photon upconversion via a triplet-triplet annihilation mechanism and (2) photoredox catalysis for a green-light-driven dehalogenation reaction. Overall, our results establish tripodal carbonyl complexes as a promising design strategy to access stable photoactive complexes of nonprecious metals avoiding tedious multistep syntheses.

Abstract
While photosubstitution reactions in metal complexes are usually thought of as dissociative processes poorly dependent on the environment, they are, in fact, very sensitive to solvent effects. Therefore, it is crucial to explicitly consider solvent molecules in theoretical models of these reactions. Here, we experimentally and computationally investigated the selectivity of the photosubstitution of diimine chelates in a series of sterically strained ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes in water and acetonitrile. The complexes differ essentially by the rigidity of the chelates, which strongly influenced the observed selectivity of the photosubstitution. As the ratio between the different photoproducts was also influenced by the solvent, we developed a full density functional theory modeling of the reaction mechanism that included explicit solvent molecules. Three reaction pathways leading to photodissociation were identified on the triplet hypersurface, each characterized by either one or two energy barriers. Photodissociation in water was promoted by a proton transfer in the triplet state, which was facilitated by the dissociated pyridine ring acting as a pendent base. We show that the temperature variation of the photosubstitution quantum yield is an excellent tool to compare theory with experiments. An unusual phenomenon was observed for one of the compounds in acetonitrile, for which an increase in temperature led to a surprising decrease in the photosubstitution reaction rate. We interpret this experimental observation based on complete mapping of the triplet hypersurface of this complex, revealing thermal deactivation to the singlet ground state through intersystem crossing.

Abstract
Ruthenium(II) complexes feature prominently in the development of agents for photoactivated chemotherapy; however, the excited-state mechanisms by which photochemical ligand release operates remain unclear. We report here a systematic experimental and computational study of a series of complexes [Ru(bpy)2(N∧N)]2+ (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl; N∧N = bpy (1), 6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridyl (2), 6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridyl (3), 1-benzyl-4-(pyrid-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (4), 1-benzyl-4-(6-methylpyrid-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (5), 1,1'-dibenzyl-4,4'-bi-1,2,3-triazolyl (6)), in which we probe the contribution to the promotion of photochemical N∧N ligand release of the introduction of sterically encumbering methyl substituents and the electronic effect of replacement of pyridine by 1,2,3-triazole donors in the N∧N ligand. Complexes 2 to 6 all release the ligand N∧N on irradiation in acetonitrile solution to yield cis-[Ru(bpy)2(NCMe)2]2+, with resultant photorelease quantum yields that at first seem counter-intuitive and span a broad range. The data show that incorporation of a single sterically encumbering methyl substituent on the N∧N ligand (2 and 5) leads to a significantly enhanced rate of triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (3MLCT) state deactivation but with little promotion of photoreactivity, whereas replacement of pyridine by triazole donors (4 and 6) leads to a similar rate of 3MLCT deactivation but with much greater photochemical reactivity. The data reported here, discussed in conjunction with previously reported data on related complexes, suggest that monomethylation in 2 and 5 sterically inhibits the formation of a 3MCcis state but promotes the population of 3MCtrans states which rapidly deactivate 3MLCT states and are prone to mediating ground-state recovery. On the other hand, increased photochemical reactivity in 4 and 6 seems to stem from the accessibility of 3MCcis states. The data provide important insights into the excited-state mechanism of photochemical ligand release by Ru(II) tris-bidentate complexes.

Chelating isocyanide ligands give access to this new class of 3d6 emitters with MLCT lifetimes in (or close to) the nanosecond regime in solution at room temperature. Although the so far achievable luminescence quantum yields in these open-shell complexes are yet comparatively low, the photophysical properties of the new chromium(0) and manganese(i) isocyanides are reminiscent of those of well-known ruthenium(ii) polypyridines. Our findings provide insight into how undesired nonradiative MLCT deactivation in 3d6 complexes can be counteracted, and they seem therefore relevant for the further development of new luminescent first-row transition metal complexes based on iron(ii) and cobalt(iii) in addition to chromium(0) and manganese(i). In this Frontier article, recently discovered chromium(0) and manganese(i) complexes emitting from metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) excited states are highlighted.![]()

Abstract
Diimine metal complexes have significant relevance in the development of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT) applications. In particular, complexes of the TAP ligand (1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene) are known to lead to photoinduced oxidation of DNA, while TAP- and triazole-based complexes are also known to undergo photochemical ligand release processes relevant to PACT. The photophysical and photochemical properties of heteroleptic complexes [Ru(TAP)n(btz)3-n]2+ (btz = 1,1'-dibenzyl-4,4'-bi-1,2,3-triazolyl, n = 1 (1), 2 (2)) have been explored. Upon irradiation in acetonitrile, 1 displays analogous photochemistry to that previously observed for [Ru(bpy)(btz)2]2+ (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl) and generates trans-[Ru(TAP)(btz)(NCMe)2]2+ (5), which has been crystallographically characterized, with the observation of the ligand-loss intermediate trans-[Ru(TAP)(κ2-btz)(κ1-btz)(NCMe)]2+ (4). Complex 2 displays more complicated photochemical behavior with not only preferential photorelease of btz to form cis-[Ru(TAP)2(NCMe)2]2+ (6) but also competitive photorelease of TAP to form 5. Free TAP is then taken up by 6 to form [Ru(TAP)3]2+ (3) with the proportion of 5 and 3 observed to progressively increase during prolonged photolysis. Data suggest a complex set of reversible photochemical ligand scrambling processes in which 2 and 3 are interconverted. Computational DFT calculations have enabled optimization of geometries of the pro-trans 3MCcis states with repelled btz or TAP ligands crucial for the formation of 5 from 1 and 2, respectively, lending weight to recent evidence that such 3MCcis states play an important mechanistic role in the rich photoreactivity of Ru(II) diimine complexes.

Abstract
The understanding of photoinduced ligand exchange mechanisms in polypyridyl ruthenium(II) complexes operating in aqueous solution is of crucial importance to rationalize their photoreactivity. Herein, we demonstrate that a synergetic use of ab initio molecular dynamics simulations and static calculations, both conducted at the DFT level, can provide a full understanding of photosubstitution mechanisms of a monodentate ligand by a solvent water molecule in archetypal ruthenium complexes in explicit water. The simulations show that the photoinduced loss of a monodentate ligand generates an unreactive 16-electron species in a hitherto undescribed pentacoordinated triplet excited state that converts, via an easily accessible crossing point, to a reactive 16-electron singlet ground state, which combines with a solvent water molecule to yield the experimentally observed aqua complex in less than 10 ps. This work paves the way for the rational design of novel photoactive metal complexes relevant for biological applications.

Abstract
Four trinuclear ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes were synthesized, and a detailed investigation of their excited-state properties was performed. The tritopic sexi-pyridine bridging ligands were obtained via para or meta substitution of a central 2,2'-bipyridine fragment. A para connection between the 2,2'-bipyridine chelating moieties of the bridging ligand led to a red-shifted MLCT absorption band in the visible part of the spectra, whereas the meta connection induced a broadening of the LC transitions in the UV region. A convergent energy transfer from the two peripheral metal centers to the central Ru(II) moiety was observed for all trinuclear complexes. These complexes were in thermal equilibrium with an upper-lying 3MLCT excited state over the investigated range of temperatures. For all complexes, deactivation via the 3MC excited state was absent at room temperature. Importantly, the connection in the para position for both central and peripheral 2,2'-bipyridines of the bridging ligand resulted in a trinuclear complex (Tpp) that absorbed more visible light, had a longer-lived excited state, and had a higher photoluminescence quantum yield than the parent [Ru(bpy)3]2+, despite its red-shifted photoluminescence. This behavior was attributed to the presence of a highly delocalized excited state for Tpp.

Abstract
Resistance switching properties of nanoscale junctions of spin crossover molecules have received recently much interest. In many cases, this property has been traced back to the variation of molecular orbital energies upon spin transition. However, one can also expect a substantial reorganization of the molecular structure due to charge localization, which calls for a better understanding of the relationship between the redox potential and the spin state of the molecule. To investigate this issue, we carried out a detailed density functional theory and variable temperature cyclic voltammetry investigation of the benchmark compound [Fe(HB(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)3)2] in solution. We show that, for a correct thermodynamical picture, it is necessary to take into account the charge transfer-induced electronic and structural reorganization as well as spin equilibria in the oxidized and reduced species.

Abstract
Synthesis, characterization, electrochemistry, and photophysics of homo- and heteroleptic ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(cpmp)2 ]2+ (22+ ) and [Ru(cpmp)(ddpd)]2+ (32+ ) bearing the tridentate ligands 6,2''-carboxypyridyl-2,2'-methylamine-pyridyl-pyridine (cpmp) and N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-dipyridin-2-ylpyridine-2,6-diamine (ddpd) are reported. The complexes possess one (32+ ) or two (22+ ) electron-deficient dipyridyl ketone fragments as electron-accepting sites enabling intraligand charge transfer (ILCT), ligand-to-ligand charge transfer (LL'CT) and low-energy metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorptions. The latter peak around 544 nm (green light). Complex 22+ shows 3 MLCT phosphorescence in the red to near-infrared spectral region at room temperature in deaerated acetonitrile solution with an emission quantum yield of 1.3 % and a 3 MLCT lifetime of 477 ns, whereas 32+ is much less luminescent. This different behavior is ascribed to the energy gap law and the shape of the parasitic excited 3 MC state potential energy surface. This study highlights the importance of the excited-state energies and geometries for the actual excited-state dynamics. Aromatic and aliphatic amines reductively quench the excited state of 22+ paving the way to photocatalytic applications using low-energy green light as exemplified with the green-light-sensitized thiol-ene click reaction.

Abstract
Understanding light-induced ligand exchange processes is key to the design of efficient light-releasing prodrugs or photochemically driven functional molecules. Previous mechanistic investigations had highlighted the pivotal role of metal-centered (MC) excited states in the initial ligand loss step. The question remains whether they are equally important in the subsequent ligand capture step. This article reports the mechanistic study of direct acetonitrile coordination onto a 3MC state of [Ru(bpy)3]2+, leading to [Ru(bpy)2(κ1-bpy)(NCMe)]2+ in a 3MLCT (metal-to-ligand charge transfer) state. Coordination of MeCN is indeed accompanied by the decoordination of one pyridine ring of a bpy ligand. As estimated from Nudged Elastic Band calculations, the energy barrier along the minimum energy path is 20 kcal/mol. Interestingly, the orbital analysis conducted along the reaction path has shown that creation of the metallic vacancy can be achieved by reverting the energetic ordering of key dσ* and bpy-based π* orbitals, resulting in the change of electronic configuration from 3MC to 3MLCT. The approach of the NCMe lone pair contributes to destabilizing the dσ* orbital by electrostatic repulsion.

Abstract
Fundamental insights into the mechanism of triplet-excited-state interligand energy transfer dynamics and the origin of dual emission for phosphorescent iridium(III) complexes are presented. The complexes [Ir(C∧N)2(N∧N)]+ (HC∧N = 2-phenylpyridine (1a-c), 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine (2a-c), 1-benzyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole (3a-c); N∧N = 1-benzyl-4-(pyrid-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (pytz, a), 1-benzyl-4-(pyrimidin-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (pymtz, b), 1-benzyl-4-(pyrazin-2-yl)-1,2,3-triazole (pyztz, c)) are phosphorescent in room-temperature fluid solutions from triplet metal-to-ligand charge transfer (3MLCT) states admixed with either ligand-centered (3LC) (1a, 2a, and 2b) or ligand-to-ligand charge transfer (3LL'CT) character (1c, 2c, and 3a-c). Particularly striking is the observation that pyrimidine-based complex 1b exhibits dual emission from both 3MLCT/3LC and 3MLCT/3LL'CT states. At 77 K, the 3MLCT/3LL'CT component is lost from the photoluminescence spectra of 1b, with emission exclusively arising from its 3MLCT/3LC state, while for 2c switching from 3MLCT/3LL'CT- to 3MLCT/3LC-based emission is observed. Femtosecond transient absorption data reveal distinct spectral signatures characteristic of the population of 3MLCT/3LC states for 1a, 2a, and 2b which persist throughout the 3 ns time frame of the experiment. These 3MLCT/3LC state signatures are apparent in the transient absorption spectra for 1c and 2c immediately following photoexcitation but rapidly evolve to yield spectral profiles characteristic of their 3MLCT/3LL'CT states. Transient data for 1b reveals intermediate behavior: the spectral features of the initially populated 3MLCT/3LC state also undergo rapid evolution, although to a lesser extent than that observed for 1c and 2c, behavior assigned to the equilibration of the 3MLCT/3LC and 3MLCT/3LL'CT states. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations enabled minima to be optimized for both 3MLCT/3LC and 3MLCT/3LL'CT states of 1a-c and 2a-c. Indeed, two distinct 3MLCT/3LC minima were optimized for 1a, 1b, 2a, and 2b distinguished by upon which of the two C∧N ligands the excited electron resides. The 3MLCT/3LC and 3MLCT/3LL'CT states for 1b are very close in energy, in excellent agreement with experimental data demonstrating dual emission. Calculated vibrationally resolved emission spectra (VRES) for the complexes are in excellent agreement with experimental data, with the overlay of spectral maxima arising from emission from the 3MLCT/3LC and 3MLCT/3LL'CT states of 1b convincingly reproducing the observed experimental spectral features. Analysis of the optimized excited-state geometries enable the key structural differences between the 3MLCT/3LC and 3MLCT/3LL'CT states of the complexes to be identified and quantified. The calculation of interconversion pathways between triplet excited states provides for the first time a through-space mechanism for a photoinduced interligand energy transfer process. Furthermore, examination of structural changes between the possible emitting triplet excited states reveals the key bond vibrations that mediate energy transfer between these states. This work therefore provides for the first time detailed mechanistic insights into the fundamental photophysical processes of this important class of complexes.

Abstract
The vast chemical space of metal and ligand combinations in Transition Metal Complexes (TMCs) gives rise to a rich variety of electronic excited states with local and non-local character such as intra-ligand (IL), metal-centered (MC), metal-to-ligand (MLCT) or ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) states. Those features are equally found in metal organic frameworks (MOFs), defined as modular materials built from metal-nodes connected through organic-ligands. Because of the electronic and structural complexity of MOFs, the computational description of their excited states is a formidable challenge for which two different approaches have been usually followed: the solid state and the molecular perspective. The first consists in analysing the frontier electronic bands and crystal orbitals of the electronic ground state (GS) in periodic boundary conditions, while the latter points to an accurate computation of the excited states in representative clusters at the molecular level. Herein, we apply both approaches to evaluate the optical absorption properties of three experimentally reported Ti(iv) mononuclear MOFs with in silico metal substitutions with Zn(ii), Cd(ii), Fe(ii), Ru(ii) and Zr(iv) ions, thus covering d10, d6 and d0 electronic configurations of 1st and 2nd row TMCs in MOFs. Our analysis captures the main electronic features attributed to these systems while we discuss the main advantages and drawbacks of both approximations.

Three homoleptic ruthenium(II) complexes, [Ru(Q3PzH)3]2+, [Ru(Q1Pz)3]2+, and [Ru(DQPz)2]2+, based on the quinoline-pyrazole ligands, Q3PzH (8-(3-pyrazole)-quinoline), Q1Pz (8-(1-pyrazole)-quinoline), and DQPz (bis(quinolinyl)-1,3-pyrazole), have been spectroscopically and theoretically investigated. Spectral component analysis, transient absorption spectroscopy, density functional theory calculations, and ligand exchange reactions with different chlorination agents reveal that the excited state dynamics for Ru(II) complexes with these biheteroaromatic ligands differ significantly from that of traditional polypyridyl complexes. Despite the high energy and low reorganization energy of the excited state, nonradiative decay dominates even at liquid nitrogen temperatures, where triplet metal-to-ligand-charge-transfer emission quantum yields range from 0.7 to 3.8%, and microsecond excited state lifetimes are observed. In contrast to traditional polypyridyl complexes where ligand exchange is facilitated by expansion of the metal-ligand bonds to stabilize a metal-centered state, photoinduced ligand exchange occurs in the bidentate complexes despite no substantial MC state population, while the tridentate complex is extremely photostable despite an activated decay route, highlighting the versatile photochemistry of nonpolypyridine ligands.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of clinically approved anticancer drug to tumor sites is an effective way to achieve enhanced drug efficacy as well as reduced side effects and toxicity. Here bicalutamide is caged by the Ru(II) center through the nitrile group, and three photoactive Ru(II) complexes were designed and synthesized. Docking study showed that the ruthenium(II) fragments can effectively block the binding of complexes 1-3 with AR (androgen receptor) owing to the large steric structures, thus bicalutamide in complexes 1-3 could not interact with AR-LBD (ligand binding domain). Once irradiation with blue light (465nm), complexes 1-3 can release bicalutamide and anticancer Ru(II) fragments, which possesses dual-action of AR binding and DNA interaction simultaneously. In vitro cytotoxicity study on these complexes further confirmed that complexes 1-3 exhibited considerable cytotoxicity upon irradiation with blue light. Significantly, complex 3 could be activated at 660nm, which greatly increases the scope of complex 3 to treat deeper within tissue. Theoretical calculations showed that the lowest singlet excitation energy of complex 3 is lower than those of complexes 1-2, which explains the experimental results well. Moreover, the 3MC (metal centered) states of these complexes are more stable than their 3MLCT (metal to ligand charge transfer) states, indicating that the photoactive processes of these complexes are likely to result in ligand dissociation.

Abstract
[Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]2+ (TAP = 1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene; dppz = dipyrido[3,2- a:2',3'- c]phenazine) is known to photo-oxidize guanine in DNA. Whether this oxidation proceeds by direct photoelectron transfer or by proton-coupled electron transfer is still unknown. To help distinguish between these mechanisms, spectro-electrochemical experiments have been carried out with [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]2+ in acetonitrile. The UV-vis and mid-IR spectra obtained for the one-electron reduced product were compared to those obtained by picosecond transient absorption and time-resolved infrared experiments of [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]2+ bound to guanine-containing DNA. An interesting feature of the singly reduced species is an electronic transition in the near-IR region (with λmax at 1970 and 2820 nm). Density functional and time-dependent density functional theory simulations of the vibrational and electronic spectra of [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]2+, the reduced complex [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]+, and four isomers of [Ru(TAP)(TAPH)(dppz)]2+ (a possible product of proton-coupled electron transfer) were performed. Significantly, these predict absorption bands at λ > 1900 nm (attributed to a ligand-to-metal charge-transfer transition) for [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]+ but not for [Ru(TAP)(TAPH)(dppz)]2+. Both the UV-vis and mid-IR difference absorption spectra of the electrochemically generated singly reduced species [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]+ agree well with the transient absorption and time-resolved infrared spectra previously determined for the transient species formed by photoexcitation of [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]2+ intercalated in guanine-containing DNA. This suggests that the photochemical process in DNA proceeds by photoelectron transfer and not by a proton-coupled electron transfer process involving formation of [Ru(TAP)(TAPH)(dppz)]2+, as is proposed for the reaction with 5'-guanosine monophosphate. Additional infrared spectro-electrochemical measurements and density functional calculations have also been carried out on the free TAP ligand. These show that the TAP radical anion in acetonitrile also exhibits strong broad near-IR electronic absorption (λmax at 1750 and 2360 nm).

Abstract
The use of tris(bidentate) Ir(III) complexes as light active components in phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs) is currently the state-of-the-art technology to attain long-lasting and highly performing devices. Still, further improvements of their operational lifetimes are required for their practical use in lighting and displays. Facial/meridional stereoisomerism of the tris(bidentate) Ir(III) architectures strongly influences their emissive properties and thereto their PhOLEDs performances and operational device stabilities. This work underpins at the first-principles level the different excited state reactivities of facial and meridional stereoisomers of a series of tris(bidentate) Ir(III) complexes, which is found to originate in the presence of distinct triplet metal-centered (3MC) deactivation pathways. These deactivation pathways are herein presented for the first time for the meridional isomers. Finally, we propose some phosphor design strategies.
