Nitrile Substituents at the Conjugated Dipyridophenazine Moiety as Infrared Redox Markers in Electrochemically Reduced Heteroleptic Ru(II) Polypyridyl Complexes. Inorg Chem 2024; 63:2460-2469. [PMID: 38262043 PMCID: PMC10848246 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.3c03484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Revised: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/25/2024]
Abstract
Ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(tap)2(NN)]2+ (tap = 1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene, NN = 11-cyano-dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (11-CN-dppz) and 11,12-dicyano-dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (11,12-CN-dppz)) feature the C≡N groups as infrared (IR)-active redox markers. They were studied by cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis, and IR spectroelectrochemistry (SEC), and density functional theory calculations to assign the four 1e- reduction waves R1-R4 observed in dichloromethane. Generally, the NN ligands are reduced first (R1). For [Ru(tap)2(11,12-CN-dppz)]2+, R1 is sufficiently separated from R2 and delocalized over both tap ligands. Accordingly, IR SEC conducted at R1 shows a large red shift of the νs,as(C≡N) modes by -18/-28 cm-1, accompanied by a 4-fold enhancement of the νs(C≡N) intensity, comparably with reference data for free 11,12-CN-dppz. The first tap-based reduction of spin-doublet [Ru(tap)2(11,12-CN-dppz)]+ to spin-triplet [Ru(tap)2(11,12-CN-dppz)] at R2 decreased ν(C≡N) by merely -2 cm-1, while the intensity enhancement reached an overall factor of 8. Comparably, a red shift of ν(C≡N) by -27 cm-1 resulted from the 1e- reduction of [Ru(tap)2(11-CN-dppz)]2+ at R1 (poorly resolved from R2), and the intensity enhancement was roughly 3-fold. Concomitant 1e- reductions of the tap ligands (R2 and R3) caused only minor ν(C≡N) shifts of -3 cm-1 and increased the absorbance by overall factors of 6.5 and 8, respectively.

Abstract
![]()
The synthesis and
photophysical characterization of two osmium(II)
polypyridyl complexes, [Os(TAP)2dppz]2+ (1) and [Os(TAP)2dppp2]2+ (2) containing dppz (dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine) and dppp2 (pyrido[2′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline) intercalating ligands and TAP (1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene)
ancillary ligands, are reported. The complexes exhibit complex electrochemistry
with five distinct reductive redox couples, the first of which is
assigned to a TAP-based process. The complexes emit in the near-IR
(1 at 761 nm and 2 at 740 nm) with lifetimes
of >35 ns with a low quantum yield of luminescence in aqueous solution
(∼0.25%). The Δ and Λ enantiomers of 1 and 2 are found to bind to natural DNA and with AT
and GC oligodeoxynucleotides with high affinities. In the presence
of natural DNA, the visible absorption spectra are found to display
significant hypochromic shifts, which is strongly evident for the
ligand-centered π–π* dppp2 transition at 355 nm,
which undergoes 46% hypochromism. The emission of both complexes increases
upon DNA binding, which is observed to be sensitive to the Δ
or Λ enantiomer and the DNA composition. A striking result is
the sensitivity of Λ-2 to the presence of AT DNA,
where a 6-fold enhancement of luminescence is observed and reflects
the nature of the binding for the enantiomer and the protection from
solution. Thermal denaturation studies show that both complexes are
found to stabilize natural DNA. Finally, cellular studies show that
the complexes are internalized by cultured mammalian cells and localize
in the nucleus. Osmium(II)
polypyridyl complexes comprising extended dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine (1) and pyrido[2′,3′:5,6]pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline (2) intercalating ligands
are shown to be effective DNA binders accompanied by enhanced near-IR
emission. The emission response to B-DNA is found to be sensitive
to the enantiomer and the composition of DNA, with greater emission
observed for AT-rich sequences. Thermal denaturation studies show
that both complexes stabilize natural DNA. Cellular studies show that
the complexes are internalized by cultured mammalian cells and localize
in the nucleus.

Abstract
The supramolecular dimerization of a ruthenium polypyridyl precursor of a well-developed family of hydrogen evolving photocatalysts via π-π-interactions of the polyheteroaromatic bridging ligand was quantified with concentration dependent 1 H-NMR-spectroscopy. The data sets were analyzed with different calculation and fit methods. A comparison between the results of direct calculation, linear and nonlinear approaches showed that the application of a global nonlinear fit procedure yields the best results. The presented methods are also applicable for dimerization processes in solution of other molecular moieties.

Abstract
![]()
Assessment of the
DNA photo-oxidation and synthetic photocatalytic
activity of chromium polypyridyl complexes is dominated by consideration
of their long-lived metal-centered excited states. Here we report
the participation of the excited states of [Cr(TMP)2dppz]3+ (1) (TMP = 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline;
dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine) in DNA photoreactions. The interactions of
enantiomers of 1 with natural DNA or with oligodeoxynucleotides
with varying AT content (0–100%) have been studied by steady
state UV/visible absorption and luminescence spectroscopic methods,
and the emission of 1 is found to be quenched in all
systems. The time-resolved infrared (TRIR) and visible absorption
spectra (TA) of 1 following excitation in the region
between 350 to 400 nm reveal the presence of relatively long-lived
dppz-centered states which eventually yield the emissive metal-centered
state. The dppz-localized states are fully quenched when bound by
GC base pairs and partially so in the presence of an AT base-pair
system to generate purine radical cations. The sensitized formation
of the adenine radical cation species (A•+T) is identified by assigning the TRIR spectra with help of
DFT calculations. In natural DNA and oligodeoxynucleotides containing
a mixture of AT and GC of base pairs, the observed time-resolved spectra
are consistent with eventual photo-oxidation occurring predominantly
at guanine through hole migration between base pairs. The combined
targeting of purines leads to enhanced photo-oxidation of guanine.
These results show that DNA photo-oxidation by the intercalated 1, which locates the dppz in contact with the target purines,
is dominated by the LC centered excited state. This work has implications
for future phototherapeutics and photocatalysis.

Abstract
This work provides new insights from our team regarding advances in targeting canonical and non-canonical nucleic acid structures. This modality of medical treatment is used as a form of molecular medicine specifically against the growth of cancer cells. Nevertheless, because of increasing concerns about bacterial antibiotic resistance, this medical strategy is also being explored in this field. Up to three strategies for the use of DNA as target have been studied in our research lines during the last few years: (1) the intercalation of phenanthroline derivatives with duplex DNA; (2) the interaction of metal complexes containing phenanthroline with G-quadruplexes; and (3) the activity of Mo polyoxometalates and other Mo-oxo species as artificial phosphoesterases to catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphoester bonds in DNA. We demonstrate some promising computational results concerning the favorable interaction of these small molecules with DNA that could correspond to cytotoxic effects against tumoral cells and microorganisms. Therefore, our results open the door for the pharmaceutical and medical applications of the compounds we propose.

Abstract
The ligand PHEHAT (PHEHAT = 1,10-phenanthrolino[5,6-b]1,4,5,8,9,12-hexaazatriphenylene) presents a structural asymmetry that has a dramatic influence on the photophysical properties depending on the chelation site of the metal ion in the linkage isomers. While [RuII(phen)2HATPHE]2+ behaves classically, like [RuII(bpy)3]2+, [RuII(phen)2PHEHAT]2+ exhibits an unusual behavior. It appears that this complex has two 3MLCT bright states, the lower one being weakly emissive or nonemissive depending on the solvent and temperature. Different photophysical techniques involving a wide range of various temperatures and timescales are essential to analyze this difference. A full photophysical scheme is proposed based on experimental data and density functional theory calculations. While previous studies focused on high temperatures and longer timescale emission, we explore the complexes at very low temperatures and very short times in order to obtain a more complete picture of the intriguing photophysical behavior of these complexes.

Abstract
Ruthenium polypyridyl complexes which can sensitise the photo-oxidation of nucleic acids and other biological molecules show potential for photo-therapeutic applications. In this article a combination of transient visible absorption (TrA) and time-resolved infra-red (TRIR) spectroscopy are used to compare the photo-oxidation of guanine by the enantiomers of [Ru(TAP)2(dppz)]2+ in both polymeric {poly(dG-dC), poly(dA-dT) and natural DNA} and small mixed-sequence duplex-forming oligodeoxynucleotides. The products of electron transfer are readily monitored by the appearance of a characteristic TRIR band centred at ca. 1700 cm−1 for the guanine radical cation and a band centered at ca. 515 nm in the TrA for the reduced ruthenium complex. It is found that efficient electron transfer requires that the complex be intercalated at a G-C base-pair containing site. Significantly, changes in the nucleobase vibrations of the TRIR spectra induced by the bound excited state before electron transfer takes place are used to identify preferred intercalation sites in mixed-sequence oligodeoxynucleotides and natural DNA. Interestingly, with natural DNA, while it is found that quenching is inefficient in the picosecond range, a slower electron transfer process occurs, which is not found with the mixed-sequence duplex-forming oligodeoxynucleotides studied. Efficient electron transfer requires the complex to be intercalated at a G-C base-pair. Identification of preferred intercalation sites is achieved by TRIR monitoring of the nucleobase vibrations before electron transfer.![]()
