Abstract
Four new complexes [Ru(bpy)2(bbib)](PF6)2, [Ru(phen)2(bbib)](PF6)2, [Re(CO)3(bbib)(py)](PF6) and [Ir(ppy)2(bbib)](PF6) [where bbib=4,4'-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine] have been prepared and their photophysical properties determined. Their behaviour has been studied with a variety of anions in acetonitrile, DMSO and 10 % aquated DMSO. Acetate and dihydrogenphosphate demonstrate a redshift in the bbib ligand associated absorptions suggesting that the ligand is strongly interacting with these anions. The 3MLCT emissive state is sensitive to the introduction of small quantities of anion (sub-stoichiometric quantities) and significant quenching is typically observed with acetate, although this is less pronounced in the presence of water. The emissive behaviour with dihydrogenphosphate is variable, showing systematic changes as anion concentration increases with several distinct interactions evident. 1H- and 31P-NMR titrations in a 10 % D2O-DMSO-D6 mixture suggest that with dihydrogenphosphate, the imidazole group is able to act as both a proton acceptor and donor. It appears that all four complexes can form a {[complex]2-H2PO4} "dimer", a one-to-one species (which the X-ray crystallography study suggests is dimeric in the solid-state), and a complex with a combined bis(dihydrogenphosphate) complex anion. The speciation relies on complex equilibria dependent on several factors including the complex charge, the hydrophobicity of the associated ligands, and the solvent.

Abstract
Ruthenium(II) complexes containing diimine ligands have contributed to the development of agents for photoactivated chemotherapy. Several approaches have been used to obtain photolabile Ru(II) complexes. The two most explored have been the use of monodentate ligands and the incorporation of steric effects between the bidentate ligands and the Ru(II). However, the introduction of electronic effects in the ligands has been less explored. Herein, we report a systematic experimental, theoretical, and photocytotoxicity study of a novel series of Ru(II) complexes Ru1-Ru5 of general formula [Ru(phen)2(N∧N')]2+, where N∧N' are different minimal strained ligands based on the 1-aryl-4-benzothiazolyl-1,2,3-triazole (BTAT) scaffold, being CH3 (Ru1), F (Ru2), CF3 (Ru3), NO2 (Ru4), and N(CH3)2 (Ru5) substituents in the R4 of the phenyl ring. The complexes are stable in solution in the dark, but upon irradiation in water with blue light (λex = 465 nm, 4 mW/cm2) photoejection of the ligand BTAT was observed by HPLC-MS spectrometry and UV-vis spectroscopy, with t1/2 ranging from 4.5 to 14.15 min depending of the electronic properties of the corresponding BTAT, being Ru4 the less photolabile (the one containing the more electron withdrawing substituent, NO2). The properties of the ground state singlet and excited state triplet of Ru1-Ru5 have been explored using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations. A mechanism for the photoejection of the BTAT ligand from the Ru complexes, in H2O, is proposed. Phototoxicity studies in A375 and HeLa human cancer cell lines showed that the new Ru BTAT complexes were strongly phototoxic. An enhancement of the emission intensity of HeLa cells treated with Ru5 was observed in response to increasing doses of light due to the photoejection of the BTAT ligand. These studies suggest that BTAT could serve as a photocleavable protecting group for the cytotoxic bis-aqua ruthenium warhead [Ru(phen)2(OH2)2]2+.

Abstract
Sorafenib, a multiple kinase inhibitor, is widely used as a first-line treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma. However, there is a need for more effective alternatives when sorafenib proves insufficient. In this study, we aimed to design a structure that surpasses sorafenib's efficacy, leading us to synthesize sorafenib-ruthenium complexes for the first time and investigate their properties. Our results indicate that the sorafenib-ruthenium complexes exhibit superior epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition compared to sorafenib alone. Interestingly, among these complexes, Ru3S demonstrated high activity against various cancer cell lines including sorafenib-resistant HepG2 cells while exhibiting significantly lower cytotoxicity than sorafenib in healthy cell lines. Further evaluation of cell cycle, cell apoptosis, and antiangiogenic effects, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics studies revealed that Ru3S holds great potential as a drug candidate. Additionally, when free Ru3S was encapsulated into polymeric micelles M1, enhanced cytotoxicity on HepG2 cells was observed. Collectively, these findings position Ru3S as a promising candidate for EGFR inhibition and warrant further exploration for drug development purposes.

Abstract
Liver cancer is one of the leading causes of death that motivating scientists worldwide to synthesize novel chemotherapeutics. Ru(II)-polypyridyl complexes are extensively studied for possible therapeutic and cellular applications due to their tunable coordination chemistry, structural diversity, ligand-exchange kinetics, accessible redox states, and rich photophysical or photochemical properties. Herein, we have synthesized a series of Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes [RuII(N^N)2(ox)] (1-3), where ox is oxalate (C2O42-) and N^N is 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) (1), dipyrido[3,2-d:2',3'-f]quinoxaline (dpq) (2), and dipyrido[3,2,-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppz) (3). Oxalate (ox2-) was opted as a bioactive dioxo ligand to prevent facile hydrolysis in aqueous media, thereby increasing the stability of the Ru(II)-polypyridyl complexes in physiological media. We thoroughly characterized all the complexes using ESI-MS, FT-IR, UV-vis, and 1H NMR spectroscopy and other physicochemical methods. The complexes were stable under physiological conditions and under low-energy green LED light (λirr = 530 nm). However, the photoirradiation of complexes resulted in the efficient generation of singlet oxygen (1O2) as a major reactive oxygen species (ROS). The role of the extended aromatic conjugation of the N^N-donor ligands in the complexes was demonstrated by their binding propensities with CT-DNA and bovine serum albumin (BSA). Both DNA intercalation and groove binding were evidenced, while tryptophan (Trp) and tyrosine (Tyr) binding site preferences were revealed from the synchronous fluorescence spectra (SFS) of BSA. The cytotoxic profiling of the complexes performed on hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2) in the dark and in the presence of green light indicated their dose-dependent cytotoxicity. The [RuII(N^N)2(ox)] complexes exhibited enhanced photocytotoxicity mediated by efficient generation of cytotoxic 1O2 and effective interaction with DNA. All the complexes were internalized by the HepG2 liver cancer cells efficiently and localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus. The complexes exhibited potent anti-proliferative, anti-clonogenic, and anti-migratory effects on the cancer cells, suggesting their potential for therapeutic applications.

Ruthenium complexes of 1,4-diazabutadiene ligands with a cis-RuCl 2 moiety for catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols: DFT evidence of chemically non-innocent ligand participation. RSC Adv 2023; 13:25660-25672. [PMID: 37649575 PMCID: PMC10463240 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra04750d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) of primary alcohols to esters by diazabutadiene-coordinated ruthenium compounds is reported. Treatment of cis-Ru(dmso)4Cl2 in acetone at 56 °C with different 1,4-diazabutadienes [p-XC6H4N[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)(H)C[double bond, length as m-dash]NC6H4X-p; X = H, CH3, OCH3, and Cl; abbreviated as DAB-X], gives trans-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-X]2Cl2 as the kinetic product of substitution. Heating these products in o-xylene at 144 °C gives the thermodynamically favored cis-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-X]2Cl2 isomers. Electronic structure calculations confirm the greater stability of the cis diastereomer. The molecular structures for each pair of geometric isomers have been determined by X-ray diffraction analyses. Cyclic voltammetry experiments on the complexes show an oxidative response and a reductive response within 0.50 to 0.93 V and -0.76 to -1.24 V vs. SCE respectively. The cis-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-X]2Cl2 complexes function as catalyst precursors for the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of primary alcohols to H2 and homo- and cross-coupled esters. When 1,4-butanediol and 1,5-pentanediol are employed as substrates, lactones and hydroxyaldehydes are produced as the major dehydrogenation products, while secondary alcohols afforded ketones in excellent yields. The mechanism for the dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol to benzyl benzoate and H2 using cis-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-H]2Cl2 (cis-1) as a catalyst precursor was investigated by DFT calculations. The data support a catalytic cycle that involves the four-coordinate species Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-H][κ1-N-DAB-H](κ1-OCH2Ph) whose protonated κ1-diazabutadiene moiety functions as a chemically non-innocent ligand that facilitates a β-hydrogen elimination from the κ1-O-benzoxide ligand to give the corresponding hydride HRu[κ2-N,N-DAB-H][κ1-N-DAB-H](κ2-O,C-benzaldehyde). H2 production follows a Noyori-type elimination to give (H2)Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-H][κ1-N-DAB-H](κ1-O-benzaldehyde) as an intermediate in the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
So far, the polyphenolic components of turmeric have shown a significant pharmacological preventative activity for a wide spectrum of diseases, including oncological disorders. This type of natural product could be of great interest for the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, displaying less side effects in comparison to classical chemotherapeutics. The poor bioavailability and quick metabolism of such natural compounds require new investigative methods to improve their stability in the organisms. A synthetic approach to increase the efficiency of curcuminoids is to coordinate them to metals through the beta-dicarbonyl moiety. We report the synthesis and the biological attempts on human ovarian carcinoma A2780 of ruthenium(II) complexes 1–4, containing curcuminoid ligands. The cytotoxicity of complexes 1–4 proves their antiproliferative capability, and a correlation between the IC50 values and NF-κB transcription factor, FGF-2, and MMP-9 levels was figured out through the principal component analysis (PCA).

Abstract
We report new ruthenium complexes bearing the lipophilic bathophenanthroline (BPhen) ligand and dihydroxybipyridine (dhbp) ligands which differ in the placement of the OH groups ([(BPhen)2 Ru(n,n'-dhbp)]Cl2 with n = 6 and 4 in 1A and 2A , respectively). Full characterization data are reported for 1A and 2A and single crystal X-ray diffraction for 1A . Both 1A and 2A are diprotic acids. We have studied 1A , 1B , 2A , and 2B (B = deprotonated forms) by UV-vis spectroscopy and 1 photodissociates, but 2 is light stable. Luminescence studies reveal that the basic forms have lower energy 3 MLCT states relative to the acidic forms. Complexes 1A and 2A produce singlet oxygen with quantum yields of 0.05 and 0.68, respectively, in acetonitrile. Complexes 1 and 2 are both photocytotoxic toward breast cancer cells, with complex 2 showing EC50 light values as low as 0.50 μM with PI values as high as >200 vs. MCF7. Computational studies were used to predict the energies of the 3 MLCT and 3 MC states. An inaccessible 3 MC state for 2B suggests a rationale for why photodissociation does not occur with the 4,4'-dhbp ligand. Low dark toxicity combined with an accessible 3 MLCT state for 1 O2 generation explains the excellent photocytotoxicity of 2.

Abstract
The number of studies concerning the permanent porosity of molecular materials, especially porous organic cages (POCs) and porous coordination cages (PCCs), have increased substantially over the past decade. The work presented here outlines novel approaches to the preparation of porous molecular structures upon metalation of nonporous, amine-based organic cages. Reduction of the well-known CC3 and CC1 imine-based POCs affords nonporous, highly flexible amine cages. These materials can be endowed with significant levels of structural rigidity via post-synthetic metalation of their ethylenediamine-type binding pockets. The hybrid metal-organic cages accessed through this approach combine aspects of POC and PCC chemistry, with structures of this type providing a potentially promising new direction for the design and development of porous molecular materials with tunability in overall charge, metal cation, porosity, and solubility.

Abstract
![]()
We describe a synthetic
strategy for the preparation of bis-heteroleptic
polypyridyl Ru(II) complexes of the type [Ru(L1)2(L2)]2+ (L1 and L2 = diimine ligands) from well-defined Ru(II) precursors.
For this purpose, a series of six neutral, anionic, and cationic cis-locked Ru(II)-DMSO complexes (2–7) of the general formula [Y] fac-[RuX(DMSO–S)3(O–O)]n (where O–O
is a symmetrical chelating anion: oxalate (ox), malonate (mal), acetylacetonate
(acac); X = DMSO–O or Cl–; n = −1/0/+1 depending on the nature and charge of X and O–O;
when present, Y = K+ or PF6–) were efficiently prepared from the well-known cis-[RuCl2(DMSO)4] (1). When treated
with diimine chelating ligands (L1 = bpy, phen, dpphen), the compounds 2–7 afforded the target [Ru(L1)2(O–O)]0/+ complex together with the undesired (and
unexpected) [Ru(L1)3]2+ species. Nevertheless,
we found that the formation of [Ru(L1)3]2+can
be minimized by carefully adjusting the reaction conditions: in particular,
high selectivity toward [Ru(L1)2(O–O)]0/+ and almost complete conversion of the precursor was obtained within
minutes, also on a 100–200 mg scale, when the reactions were
performed in absolute ethanol at 150 °C in a microwave reactor.
Depending on the nature of L1 and concentration, with the oxalate
and malonate precursors, the neutral product [Ru(L1)2(O–O)]
can precipitate spontaneously from the final mixture, in pure form
and acceptable-to-good yields. When spontaneous precipitation of the
disubstituted product does not occur, purification from [Ru(L1)3]2+ can be rather easily accomplished by column
chromatography or solvent extraction. By comparison, under the same
conditions, compound 1 is much less selective, thus demonstrating
that locking the geometry of the precursor through the introduction
of O–O in the coordination sphere of Ru is a valid strategic
approach. By virtue of its proton-sensitive nature, facile and quantitative
replacement of O–O in [Ru(L1)2(O–O)]0/+ by L2, selectively affording [Ru(L1)2(L2)]2+, was accomplished in refluxing ethanol in the presence of
a slight excess of trifluoroacetic acid or HPF6. cis-Locked Ru(II)-DMSO
complexes bearing
a symmetrical chelating anion, such as [K] fac-[RuCl(DMSO−S)3(η2-mal)] (2), are suitable
precursors for the two-step selective preparation of bis-heteroleptic
polypyridyl compounds of the type [Ru(L1)2(L2)]2+ (L1 and L2 = diimine ligands).

Abstract
The development of new solar-to-fuel scenarios is of great importance, but the construction of molecular systems that convert sunlight into chemical energy represents a challenge. One specific issue is that the molecular systems have to be able to accumulate redox equivalents to mediate the photodriven transformation of relevant small molecules, which mostly involves the orchestrated transfer of multiple electrons and protons. Disulfide/dithiol interconversions are prominent 2e-/2H+ couples and can play an important role for redox control and charge storage. With this background in mind, a new photosensitizer [Ru(S-Sbpy)(bpy)2]2+ (12+) equipped with a disulfide functionalized bpy ligand (S-Sbpy, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) was synthesized and has been comprehensively studied, including structural characterization by X-ray diffraction. In-depth electrochemical studies show that the S-Sbpy ligand in 12+ can be reduced twice at moderate potentials (around -1.1 V vs Fc+/0), and simulation of the cyclic voltammetry (CV) traces revealed potential inversion (E2 > E1) and allowed to derive kinetic parameters for the sequential electron-transfer processes. However, reduction at room temperature also triggers the ejection of one sulfur atom from 12+, leading to the formation of [Ru(Sbpy)(bpy)2]2+(22+). This chemical reaction can be suppressed by decreasing the temperature from 298 to 248 K. Compared to the archetypical photosensitizer [Ru(bpy)3]2+, 12+ features an additional low energy optical excitation in the MLCT region, originating from charge transfer from the metal center to the S-Sbpy ligand (aka MSCT) according to time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. Analysis of the excited states of 12+ on the basis of ground-state Wigner sampling and using charge-transfer descriptors has shown that bpy modification with a peripheral disulfide moiety leads to an energy splitting between charge-transfer excitations to the S-Sbpy and the bpy ligands, offering the possibility of selective charge transfer from the metal to either type of ligands. Compound 12+ is photostable and shows an emission from a 3MLCT state in deoxygenated acetonitrile with a lifetime of 109 ns. This work demonstrates a rationally designed system that enables future studies of photoinduced multielectron, multiproton PCET chemistry.

Abstract
![]()
Thioethers are good
ligands for photoactivatable ruthenium(II)
polypyridyl complexes, as they form thermally stable complexes that
are prone to ligand photosubstitution. Here, we introduce a novel
symmetric chelating bis(thioether) ligand scaffold, based on 1,3-bis(methylthio)-2-propanol
(4) and report the synthesis and stereochemical characterization
of the series of novel ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes [Ru(bpy)2(L)](PF6)2 ([1]–[3](PF6)2), where L is ligand 4, its methyl ether, 1,3-bis(methylthio)-2-methoxypropane (5), or its carboxymethyl ether, 1,3-bis(methylthio)-2-(carboxymethoxy)propane
(6). Coordination of ligands 4–6 to the bis(bipyridine)ruthenium center gives rise to 16
possible isomers, consisting of 8 possible Λ diastereoisomers
and their Δ enantiomers. We found that the synthesis of [1]–[3](PF6)2 is
diastereoselective, yielding a racemic mixture of the Λ-(S)-eq-(S)-ax-OHeq-[Ru]2+ and Δ-(R)-ax-(R)-eq-OHeq-[Ru]2+ isomers. Upon
irradiation with blue light in water, [1]–[3](PF6)2 selectively substitute their
bis(thioether) ligands for water molecules in a two-step photoreaction,
ultimately producing [Ru(bpy)2(H2O)2]2+ as the photoproduct. The relatively stable photochemical
intermediate was identified as cis-[Ru(bpy)2(κ1-L)(H2O)]2+ by mass spectrometry.
Global fitting of the time evolution of the UV–vis absorption
spectra of [1]–[3](PF6)2 was employed to derive the photosubstitution quantum
yields (Φ443) for each of the two photochemical reaction
steps separately, revealing very high quantum yields of 0.16–0.25
for the first step and lower values (0.0055–0.0093) for the
second step of the photoreaction. The selective and efficient photochemical
reaction makes the photocleavable bis(thioether) ligand scaffold reported
here a promising candidate for use in e.g. ruthenium-based photo-activated
chemotherapy. Thioethers are excellent photocleavable ligands for ruthenium(II)
polypyridyl complexes but may lead to the formation of several stereoisomers
when they are present in bidentate ligands. Here, a chelating bis(thioether)
ligand was found to coordinate to Ru(II) diastereoselectively, in
spite of the four chiral centers of the resulting complex. Photosubstitution
of this bis(thioether) ligand in water occurs via a selective, two-step
process that involves a relatively stable mono(aqua) intermediate.

Abstract
The photochemical reduction of CO2 to formic acid catalyzed by a series of [Rh(4,4'-R-bpy)(Cp*)Cl]+ and [Rh(5,5'-COOH-bpy)(Cp*)Cl]+ complexes (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, and R = OCH3, CH3, H, COOC2H5, CF3, NH2, or COOH) was studied to assess how modifications in the electronic structure of the catalyst affect its selectivity, defined as the HCOOH:H2 product ratio. A direct molecular-level influence of the functional group on the initial reaction rate for CO2 versus proton reduction reactions was established. Density functional theory computations elucidated for the first time the respective role of the [RhH] and [Cp*H] tautomers, recognizing rhodium hydride as the key player for both reactions. In particular, our calculations explain the observed tendency of electron-donating substituents to favor CO2 reduction by means of decreasing the hydricity of the Rh-H bond, resulting in a lower hydride transfer barrier toward formic acid production as compared to substituents with an electron-withdrawing nature that favor more strongly the reduction of protons to hydrogen.

Abstract
The ruthenium(II) tris-heteroleptic compounds cis-[Ru(NN)(dcbH2)(NCS)2], NN = polypyridyl ligand and dcbH2 = 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid, can be synthesized by a one-pot route starting from [Ru( p-cymene)Cl2]2, followed by the sequential addition of ligands. In this work, each synthetic step for the cis-[Ru(R-phen)(dcbH2)(NCS)2] (R = H, Me, Ph, MeO, or Cl) preparation was individually investigated, aiming to identify reaction intermediates and to establish correlations among temperature, reaction time, reactant concentration, and the identity of the substituent of the polypyridyl ligand with the kinetics of the reactions and distribution of the products. The first step is the cleavage of [Ru( p-cymene)Cl2]2, followed by the coordination of R-phen via an associative mechanism and establishment of a direct correlation between the electron-donating or electron-withdrawing character of R and the reaction rates. The second step is the conversion of [Ru(R-phen)( p-cymene)Cl]Cl to cis-[Ru(R-phen)(dcbH2)Cl2], and the rate-determining step is the formation of the intermediate [Ru(R-phen)Cl2], which exhibits a low dependence on R. The last step is the substitution of Cl- by NCS-, and the N-bound isomer is the major product. The reaction temperature, time, and identity of R influence the relative distribution of the linkage isomers. The comprehension of each of these processes is a key factor to develop new strategies to optimize the one-pot synthetic route.

Abstract
Two new Re(I)- and Ru(II)-based inhibitors were synthesized with the formulas [Re(phen)(CO)3(1)](OTf) (7; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate) and [Ru(bpy)2(2)](Cl)2 (8; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine), where 1 and 2 are the analogues of CLIK-148, an epoxysuccinyl-based cysteine cathepsin L inhibitor (CTSL). Compounds 7 and 8 were characterized using various spectroscopic techniques and elemental analysis; 7 and 8 both show exceptionally long excited state lifetimes. Re(I)-based complex 7 inhibits CTSL in the low nanomolar range, affording a greater than 16-fold enhancement of potency relative to the free inhibitor 1 with a second-order rate constant of 211000 ± 42000 M-1 s-1. Irreversible ligation of 7 to papain, a model of CTSL, was analyzed with mass spectroscopy, and the major peak shown at 24283 au corresponds to that of papain-1-Re(CO)3(phen). Compound 7 was well tolerated by DU-145 prostate cancer cells, with toxicity evident only at high concentrations. Treatment of DU-145 cells with 7 followed by imaging via confocal microscopy showed substantial intracellular fluorescence that can be blocked by the known CTSL inhibitor CLIK-148, consistent with the ability of 7 to label CTSL in living cells. Overall this study reveals that a Re(I) complex can be attached to an enzyme inhibitor and enhance potency and selectivity for a medicinally important target, while at the same time allowing new avenues for tracking and quantification due to long excited state lifetimes and non-native element composition.

Abstract
An absorbance-based sensor employing ruthenium bipyridyl with a phenanthroline-fused benzoylthiourea moiety formulated as [Ru(ii)(bpy)2(phen-nBT)](PF6)2 {bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, nBT = n-benzoylthiourea} has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, mass spectrometry, and infrared, ultraviolet-visible, luminescence and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The changes in the intensity of absorption and emission of the complex induced by functionalization of the benzoylthiourea ligands with amino and carbonyl in their protonated and deprotonated forms were studied experimentally. The absorption and emission properties of the complex exhibit a strong dependence on the pH (1-11) of the aqueous medium. This work highlights the pH-sensitivity augmentation of the absorption band by elongating the conjugation length in the structure of the ruthenium bipyridine complex. The principle of this work was to design the title compound to be capable of enhancing the differences in the absorption sensitivity responses towards pH between the protonated and deprotonated complexes in the absorption measurement. Along with significant and noticeable changes in the absorption spectra, subsequent theoretical investigations specifically on the electronic and absorbance properties of the title compound were carried out in this study. Protonation of the molecule significantly stabilized the lowest-unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), whereas the highest-occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is greatly destabilized upon deprotonation. A time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculation in the linear-response (-LR) regime was performed to clarify the origin of the experimentally observed linear dependence of absorption intensity upon pH (1-11). The MLCT band exhibits hyperchromic shift at low pH as indicated by the large transition dipole moment and a wider distribution of the response charge of the molecule, which is induced by the stabilization of the electrostatic potential at the carbonyl moiety by protonation. This study provides the possibility of employing theoretical information to gain insight into the origin of the optical absorption obtained experimentally. The ruthenium complex was designed with an elongated ligand conjugation length and exhibited a tremendously large change in the absorption intensity of the protonated and deprotonated forms, which therefore demonstrates its feasibility as an indicator molecule especially for absorbance measurements.

Abstract
Ru(II)-diimine complexes covalently attached near the heme active site of P450 BM3 enzymes have been used to rapidly inject electrons and drive selective C-H functionalization upon visible light irradiation. Herein, we have generated a series of hybrid P450 BM3 enzymes containing a photosensitizer of general formula [Ru(4,4'-X2bpy)2(PhenA)]2+ where X = Cl, H, tBu, Me OPhe, OMe, or NMe2, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, and PhenA = 5-acetamido-1,10-phenanthroline. We then probed the effect of electron-withdrawing and -donating groups at the para position of the 4,4'-X2bpy ligands on the corresponding hybrid enzymes photocatalytic activity. A 3-fold improvement in initial reaction rate was noted when varying the substituent from Cl to tBu, however, the reaction rates decrease thereafter with the more electron donating groups. In order to rationalize those effects, we investigated the variation of the substituent on the photophysical properties of the corresponding [Ru(4,4'-X2bpy)2(bpy)]2+ model complexes. Several linear correlations were established between the E(III/II) potential, the MLCT emission, and absorption energies as well as the logarithm of the luminescence quenching rate vs the summative Brown-Okamoto parameter (Σσp+). Moreover, a downward curved Hammett plot is observed with the hybrid enzyme initial reaction rate revealing mechanistic details about the overall light-driven enzymatic process.

Abstract
Five heteroleptic tris-diimine ruthenium(II) complexes [RuL(N^N)2](PF6)2 (where L is 3,8-di(benzothiazolylfluorenyl)-1,10-phenanthroline and N^N is 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) (1), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) (2), 1,4,8,9-tetraazatriphenylene (tatp) (3), dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppz) (4), or benzo[i]dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppn) (5), respectively) were synthesized. The influence of π-conjugation of the ancillary ligands (N^N) on the photophysical properties of the complexes was investigated by spectroscopic methods and simulated by density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT. Their ground-state absorption spectra were characterized by intense absorption bands below 350 nm (ligand L localized 1π,π* transitions) and a featureless band centered at ∼410 nm (intraligand charge transfer (1ILCT)/1π,π* transitions with minor contribution from metal-to-ligand charge transfer (1MLCT) transition). For complexes 4 and 5 with dppz and dppn ligands, respectively, broad but very weak absorption (ε < 800 M-1 cm-1) was present from 600 to 850 nm, likely emanating from the spin-forbidden transitions to the triplet excited states. All five complexes showed red-orange phosphorescence at room temperature in CH2Cl2 solution with decreased lifetimes and emission quantum yields, as the π-conjugation of the ancillary ligands increased. Transient absorption (TA) profiles were probed in acetonitrile solutions at room temperature for all of the complexes. Except for complex 5 (which showed dppn-localized 3π,π* absorption with a long lifetime of 41.2 μs), complexes 1-4 displayed similar TA spectral features but with much shorter triplet lifetimes (1-2 μs). Reverse saturable absorption (RSA) was demonstrated for the complexes at 532 nm using 4.1 ns laser pulses, and the strength of RSA decreased in the order: 2 ≥ 1 ≈ 5 > 3 > 4. Complex 5 is particularly attractive as a broadband reverse saturable absorber due to its wide optical window (430-850 nm) and long-lived triplet lifetime in addition to its strong RSA at 532 nm. Complexes 1-5 were also probed as photosensitizing agents for in vitro photodynamic therapy (PDT). Most of them showed a PDT effect, and 5 emerged as the most potent complex with red light (EC50 = 10 μM) and was highly photoselective for melanoma cells (selectivity factor, SF = 13). Complexes 1-5 were readily taken up by cells and tracked by their intracellular luminescence before and after a light treatment. Diagnostic intracellular luminescence increased with increased π-conjugation of the ancillary N^N ligands despite diminishing cell-free phosphorescence in that order. All of the complexes penetrated the nucleus and caused DNA condensation in cell-free conditions in a concentration-dependent manner, which was not influenced by the identity of N^N ligands. Although the mechanism for photobiological activity was not established, complexes 1-5 were shown to exhibit potential as theranostic agents. Together the RSA and PDT studies indicate that developing new agents with long intrinsic triplet lifetimes, high yields for triplet formation, and broad ground-state absorption to near-infrared (NIR) in tandem is a viable approach to identifying promising agents for these applications.

Abstract
Excited state proton transfer studies of six Ru polypyridyl compounds with carboxylic acid/carboxylate group(s) revealed that some were photoacids and some were photobases. The compounds [Ru(II)(btfmb)2(LL)](2+), [Ru(II)(dtb)2(LL)](2+), and [Ru(II)(bpy)2(LL)](2+), where bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine, btfmb is 4,4'-(CF3)2-bpy, and dtb is 4,4'-((CH3)3C)2-bpy, and LL is either dcb = 4,4'-(CO2H)2-bpy or mcb = 4-(CO2H),4'-(CO2Et)-2,2'-bpy, were synthesized and characterized. The compounds exhibited intense metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) absorption bands in the visible region and room temperature photoluminescence (PL) with long τ > 100 ns excited state lifetimes. The mcb compounds had very similar ground state pKa's of 2.31 ± 0.07, and their characterization enabled accurate determination of the two pKa values for the commonly utilized dcb ligand, pKa1 = 2.1 ± 0.1 and pKa2 = 3.0 ± 0.2. Compounds with the btfmb ligand were photoacidic, and the other compounds were photobasic. Transient absorption spectra indicated that btfmb compounds displayed a [Ru(III)(btfmb(-))L2](2+)* localized excited state and a [Ru(III)(dcb(-))L2](2+)* formulation for all the other excited states. Time dependent PL spectral shifts provided the first kinetic data for excited state proton transfer in a transition metal compound. PL titrations, thermochemical cycles, and kinetic analysis (for the mcb compounds) provided self-consistent pKa* values. The ability to make a single ionizable group photobasic or photoacidic through ligand design was unprecedented and was understood based on the orientation of the lowest-lying MLCT excited state dipole relative to the ligand that contained the carboxylic acid group(s).
