Abstract
Lack of selectivity is one of the main issues with currently used chemotherapies, causing damage not only to altered cells but also to healthy cells. Over the last decades, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has increased as a promising therapeutic tool due to its potential to treat diseases like cancer or bacterial infections with a high spatiotemporal control. Ruthenium(II) polypyridyl compounds are gaining attention for their application as photosensitizers (PSs) since they are generally nontoxic in dark conditions, while they show remarkable toxicity after light irradiation. In this work, four Ru(II) polypyridyl compounds with sterically expansive ligands were studied as PDT agents. The Ru(II) complexes were synthesized using an alternative route to those described in the literature, which resulted in an improvement of the synthesis yields. Solid-state structures of compounds [Ru(DIP)2phen]Cl2 and [Ru(dppz)2phen](PF6)2 have also been obtained. It is well-known that compound [Ru(dppz)(phen)2]Cl2 binds to DNA by intercalation. Therefore, we used [Ru(dppz)2phen]Cl2 as a model for DNA interaction studies, showing that it stabilized two different sequences of duplex DNA. Most of the synthesized Ru(II) derivatives showed very promising singlet oxygen quantum yields, together with noteworthy photocytotoxic properties against two different cancer cell lines, with IC50 in the micro- or even nanomolar range (0.06-7 μM). Confocal microscopy studies showed that [Ru(DIP)2phen]Cl2 and [Ru(DIP)2TAP]Cl2 accumulate preferentially in mitochondria, while no mitochondrial internalization was observed for the other compounds. Although [Ru(dppn)2phen](PF6)2 did not accumulate in mitochondria, it interestingly triggered an impairment in mitochondrial respiration after light irradiation. Among others, [Ru(dppn)2phen](PF6)2 stands out for its very good IC50 values, correlated with a very high singlet oxygen quantum yield and mitochondrial respiration disruption.

Abstract
The bis(bidentate) phosphine cis,trans,cis-1,2,3,4-tetrakis(diphenylphosphino)cyclobutane (dppcb) has been used for the synthesis of a series of novel heterodimetallic complexes starting from [Ru(bpy)(2)(dppcb)]X(2) (1; X = PF(6), SbF(6)), so-called dyads, showing surprising photochemical reactivity. They consist of [Ru(bpy)(2)](2+)"antenna" sites absorbing light combined with reactive square-planar metal centres. Thus, irradiating [Ru(bpy)(2)(dppcb)MCl(2)]X(2) (M = Pt, 2; Pd, 3; X = PF(6), SbF(6)) dissolved in CH(3)CN with visible light, produces the unique heterodimetallic compounds [Ru(bpy)(CH(3)CN)(2)(dppcb)MCl(2)]X(2) (M = Pt, 7; Pd, 8; X = PF(6), SbF(6)). In an analogous reaction the separable diastereoisomers (ΔΛ/ΛΔ)- and (ΔΔ/ΛΛ)-[Ru(bpy)(2)(dppcb)Os(bpy)(2)](PF(6))(4) (5/6) lead to [Ru(bpy)(CH(3)CN)(2)(dppcb)Os(bpy)(2)](PF(6))(4) (9), where only the RuP(2)N(4) moiety of 5/6 is photochemically reactive. By contrast, in the case of [Ru(bpy)(2)(dppcb)NiCl(2)]X(2) (4; X = PF(6), SbF(6)) no clean photoreaction is observed. Interestingly, this difference in photochemical behaviour is completely in line with the related photophysical parameters, where 2, 3, and 5/6, but not 4, show long-lived excited states at ambient temperature necessary for this type of photoreaction. Furthermore, the photochemical as well as the photophysical properties of 2-4 are also in accordance with their single crystal X-ray structures presented in this work. It seems likely that differences in "steric pressure" play a major role for these properties. The unique complexes 7-9 are also fully characterized by single-crystal X-ray structure analyses, clearly showing that the stretching vibration modes of the ligand CH(3)CN, present only in 7-9, cannot be directly influenced by "steric pressure". This has dramatic consequences for their photophysical parameters. The trans-[Ru(bpy)(CH(3)CN)(2)](2+) chromophore of 9 acts as efficient "antenna" for visible light-driven energy transfer to the Os-centred "trap" site, resulting in k(en) ≥ 2 × 10(9) s(-1) for the energy transfer. Since electron transfer is made possible by the use of this intervening energy transfer, in dyads like 2-4 highly reactive M(0) species (M = Pt, Pd, Ni) could be generated. These species are not stable in water and M(II) hydride intermediates are usually formed, further reacting with H(+) to give H(2). Thus, derivatives of 3, namely [M(bpy)(2)(dppcb)Pd(bpy)](PF(6))(4) (M = Os, Ru) dissolved in 1:1 (v/v) H(2)O-CH(3)CN produce H(2) during photolysis with visible light.

Abstract
In this work, the interaction between the guanine-rich single-strand oligomer AG(3)(T(2)AG(3))(3) quadruplex and two Ru(II) complexes, [Ru(L(1))(dppz)(2)](PF(6))(4) (1) and [Ru(L(2))(dppz)(2)](PF(6))(4) (2) (L(1) = 5,5'-di(1-(trimethylammonio)methyl)-2,2'-dipyridyl cation, L(2) = 5,5'-di(1-(triethylammonio)methyl)-2,2'-dipyridyl cation, dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c] phenazine), has been studied by UV-Visible, fluorescence, DNA melting, and circular dichroism in K(+) buffer. The two complexes after binding to G-quadruplex have shown different DNA stability and fluorescence enhancement. The results show that both complexes can induce the stabilization of quadruplex DNA. ΔT(m) values of complexes 1 and 2 at [Ru]/[DNA] ratio of 1:1 were 9.4 and 7.0, respectively. Binding stoichiometry along with the quadruplex was investigated through a luminescence-based Job plot. The major inflection points for complexes 1 and 2 were 0.49 and 0.46, respectively. The data were consistent with the binding mode at a [quadruplex]/[complex] ratio of 1:1. In addition, the conformation of G-quadruplex was not changed by the complexes at the high ionic strength of K(+) buffer.

Abstract
We report the first example of a small molecule that can noncovalently cross-link DNA with streptavidin and streptavidin-labeled materials. Molecule 1 possesses a ruthenium dipyridophenazine DNA-intercalating moiety and a biotin unit; these two units are adequately separated to ensure efficient cross-linking of DNA with protein. Complex 1 is essentially nonemissive in aqueous solution and when bound to streptavidin, however, its luminescence is turned "on" when it binds to DNA. We have used these properties to establish that this complex can simultaneously bind to DNA and streptavidin, and can thus bring these two biomolecules together. We also synthesized a related molecule, 3, in which the biotin and DNA-intercalating moieties are covalently bound. While complex 3 can intercalate into DNA through a threading mechanism, luminescence experiments show that it cannot simultaneously bind DNA and streptavidin, most likely due to the proximity of its two molecular-recognition units. The cross-linking ability of molecule 1 was used to template the assembly of streptavidin molecules on circular plasmid DNA, as visualized by atomic force microscopy. In addition, using 1, we show the organization of discrete groups of gold nanoparticles labeled with streptavidin on a linear DNA template of finite size, with transmission electron microscopy. In these experiments the DNA template acted as a "molecular ruler" that dictated the number of particles in the assembly.

Abstract
The first trans-ruthenium complex trans-[Ru(DIP)2(MeOH)2][OTf]2 (1b, where DIP = 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) incorporating a pi-extended ligand was prepared via two methods: either photolysis of cis-[Ru(DIP)2(OTf)2] in MeOH-Et(2)O or via crystallization from MeOH-Et(2)O in direct sunlight. The X-ray molecular structure of is reported and confirmed the trans geometry of the title compound. The cis-trans isomerization process was monitored by 1H-NMR and showed that 1b reverts back to cis-[Ru(DIP)2(MeOH)2][OTf]2 (1a) in methanol-d4 after 15 h at 55 degrees C or several days at room temperature. The absorption spectra recorded in MeOH showed a bathochromic shift of the MLCT band of the trans-isomer 1b relative to that of the cis complex 1a. Interestingly at 77 K the emission spectrum of 1b is red shifted compared to the cis analog 1a. A rational explanation in terms of the energy of the excited states in the cis- and trans-isomers is proposed to explain this behavior.

Abstract
Excited states of ruthenium polypyridine-type complexes have always attracted the interest of chemists. We have recently found evidence of a remarkable long-lived excited state (30 micros) for a Ru(II) complex containing a heteroditopic ligand that can be viewed as a fused phenanthroline and salophen ligand.1 To unravel this intriguing electronic property, we have used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to understand the ground-state properties of [(bpy)(2)Ru(LH(2))](2+), where LH(2) represents N,N'-bis(salicylidene)-(1,10-phenanthroline)diamine. Excited singlet and triplet states have been examined by the time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) formalism and the theoretical findings have been compared with those for the parent complex [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+). The outstanding result is the presence of excited states lower in energy than the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer states, originating from intraligand charge transfer (ILCT) from the phenolic rings to the phenanthroline part of the coordinated LH(2). The spin density distribution for the lowest triplet state provides evidence that it is in fact the lowest triplet state of the free ligand. Correlation between the energy level diagram of orbitals for the ground state and that for the (3)ILCT state clearly establishes that the ruthenium retains its formal Ru(II) oxidation state. The quenching of the luminescence and the evidence of the long-lived excited state observed for [(bpy)(2)Ru(LH(2))](2+) are discussed in the light of the computational results.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of new Ru(II) and Os(II) complexes of the ligand eilatin (1) are described. The new complexes [Ru(bpy)(eil)(2)](2+) (2), [Ru(eil)(3)](2+) (3), and [Os(eil)(3)](2+) (4) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; eil = eilatin) were synthesized and characterized by NMR, fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. In the series of complexes [Ru(bpy)(x)(eil)(y)()](2+) (x + y = 3), the effect of sequential substitution of eil for bpy on the electrochemical and photophysical properties was examined. The absorption spectra of the complexes exhibit several bpy- and eil-associated pi-pi and metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) transitions in the visible region (400-600 nm), whose energy and relative intensity depend on the number of ligands bound to the metal center (x and y). On going from [Ru(bpy)(2)(eil)](2+) (5) to 2 to 3, the d(pi)(Ru) --> pi(eil) MLCT transition undergoes a red shift from 583 to 591 to 599 nm, respectively. Electrochemical measurements performed in dimethyl sulfoxide reveal several ligand-based reduction processes, where each eil ligand can accept up to two electrons at potentials that are significantly anodically shifted (by ca. 1 V) with respect to the bpy ligands. The complexes exhibit near-IR emission (900-1100 nm) of typical (3)MLCT character, both at room temperature and at 77 K. Along the series 5, 2, and 3, upon substitution of eil for bpy, the emission maxima undergo a blue shift and the quantum yields and lifetimes increase. The radiative and nonradiative processes that contribute to deactivation of the excited level are discussed in detail.

Abstract
Four complexes of the ligand 1,12-diazaperylene (DAP) have been prepared, [Ru(bpy)n(DAP)(3-n)]2+ where n = 0-2 and [Ru(DAP)3]2+. The [Ru(DAP)3]2+ complex was characterized by X-ray analysis and was found to exhibit the expected propeller-like structure with significant intermolecular pi-stacking interactions. The three Ru(II) complexes showed self-consistent optoelectronic properties with similar ligand-centered pi-pi* absorptions in the range of 333-468 nm and MLCT bands associated with the DAP which increased in intensity and decreased in energy as the number of DAP ligands varied from 1 to 3. Hypochromicity and viscosity changes were observed that were consistent with DAP intercalation into DNA, and binding constants were measured in the range of 1.4-1.6 x 10(6) M(-1) for the mixed ligand complexes. Furthermore, the complex [Ru(bpy)2(DAP)]2+ was found to photocleave plasmid DNA upon irradiation with visible light.

Abstract
As an alternative to conventional charge-separation functional molecular models based on long-range ET within redox cascades, a "compact approach" has been examined. To this end, spacer elements usually inserted between main redox-active units within polyad systems have been removed, allowing extended rigidity but at the expense of enhanced intercomponent electronic communication. The molecular assemblies investigated here are of the P-(theta (1))-A type, where the theta (1) twist angle is related to the degree of conjugation between the photosensitizer (P, of {Ru(bpy)(3)}(2+) type) and the electron-acceptor (A). 4-N- and 4-N-,4'-N-(2,4,6-triphenylpyridinio)-2,2'-bipyridine ligands (A(1)-bpy and A(2)-bpy, respectively) have been synthesized to give complexes with Ru(II), 1-bpy and 2-bpy, respectively. Combined solid-state analysis (X-ray crystallography), solution studies ((1)H NMR, cyclic voltammetry) and computational structural optimization allowed verifying that theta (1) angle approaches 90 degrees within 1-bpy and 2-bpy in solution. Also, anticipated existence of strong intercomponent electronic coupling has been confirmed by investigating electronic absorption properties and electrochemical behavior of the compounds. The capability of 1-bpy and 2-bpy to undergo PET process was evaluated by carrying out their photophysical study (steady state emission and time-resolved spectroscopy at both 293 and 77 K). The conformational dependence of photoinduced processes within P-(theta (1))-A systems has been established by comparing the photophysical properties of 1-bpy (and 2-bpy) with those of an affiliated species reported in the literature, 1-phen. A complementary theoretical analysis (DFT) of the change of spin density distribution within model [1-bpy(theta (1))](-) mono-reduced species as a function of theta (1) has been undertaken and the possibility of conformationally switching emission properties of P was derived.

Abstract
Redox-controlled luminescence quenching is presented for a new Ru(II)-bipyridine complex [Ru(bpy)2(1)]2+ where ligand 1 is an anthra[1,10]phenanthrolinequinone. The complex emits from a short-lived metal-to-ligand charge transfer, 3MLCT state (τ = 5.5 ns in deaerated acetonitrile) with a low luminescence quantum yield (5 × 10-4). The emission intensity becomes significantly enhanced when the switchable anthraquinone unit is reduced to corresponding hydroquinone. On the contrary, chemical one-electron reduction of the anthraquinone moiety to semiquinone in aprotic tetrahydrofuran results in total quenching of the emission.

Abstract
Ru(II) and Os(II) complexes (P) of [4'-(p-phenyl)]terpyridyl ligand (ptpy) derivatized with an electron acceptor (A) of the triphenylpyridinium (H3TP+) type have been recently proposed as functional models for electron-transfer (ET) processes in the context of artificial photosynthesis. These inorganic dyads, P-A, are expected to undergo intramolecular photoinduced ET to form a charge separated (CS) state of pivotal interest. To draw a complete picture of possible ET processes, the ground- and excited-state properties of these complexes, both in their native and monoreduced forms, have been studied by the means of density functional theory (DFT). A time-dependent-DFT approach (TDDFT) was used to interpret the electronic spectra, while additional spectroscopic measurements have been carried out in order to complete the available experimental information and to further confirm the theoretical issues. Besides the noticeable quantitative agreement between computed and experimental absorption spectra, our results allow us to clarify, by first principles, the actual nature and interplay of the electronic and geometrical coupling between the acceptor moiety and the photosensitizer. The possibility of a direct (optical) ET from the ground state to the targeted *[P+-A-] CS state is theoretically postulated and found to be consistent with available photophysical data (transient absorption spectroscopy). Concerning backward ET (from the CS state), the occurrence of a quinoidal-like electronic redistribution inherent to the photoreduced acceptor-ligand is proposed to favor efficient charge recombination.

Abstract
Quantum-chemical methods are applied to study the nature of the excited states relevant in the photophysical processes (absorption and emission) of a series of polyazaaromatic-ligand-based ruthenium(II) complexes. The electronic and optical properties of the free polyazaaromatic ligands and their corresponding ruthenium(II) complexes are determined on the basis of correlated Hartree-Fock semiempirical approaches. While the emission of complexes containing small-size ligands, such as 1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2'-bipyridine, arises from a manifold of metal-to-ligand charge-transfer triplet states ((3)MLCTs), an additional ligand-centered triplet state ((3)L) is identified in the triplet manifold of complexes containing a pi-extended ligand such as dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine, tetrapyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c:3'',2''-h:2''',3'''-j]phenazine, and 1,10-phenanthrolino[5,6-b]-1,4,5,8,9,12-hexaazatriphenylene. Recent experimental data are interpreted in light of these theoretical results; namely, the origin for the abnormal solvent- and temperature-dependent emission measured in pi-extended Ru complexes is revisited.
