    Ruthenium Nitrosyl Complexes with Bidentate Heterocycles and Chloride Ligands: Synthesis and Photorelease of NO

    by Anastasia O. Brovko, Ivan A. Yakovlev, Natalia V. Kuratieva, Dmitriy G. Sheven, Gennadiy A. Kostin

    A set of new coordination compounds of the formula [RuNO(L)Cl3], with L representing the bidentate ligands bipyrimidine (bpym), bipyridine (bpy), or phenanthroline (phen), was prepared and fully characterized. For the isomeric species fac-[RuNO(bpym)Cl3] (1), fac-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (2), mer-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (3), fac-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (4), and mer-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (5), an evaluation of the photoresponse in DMSO was performed under excitation with 450 nm using a continuous-flow arrangement that enabled the simultaneous acquisition of IR and UV-Vis spectral data. Quantum yields for photoinduced release of NO were determined as follows: 5.4 ± 0.5% for fac-[RuNO(bpym)Cl3] (1); 0.8 ± 0.1% for fac-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (2); 0.6 ± 0.1% for mer-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (3); 3.7 ± 0.1% for fac-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (4); 2.1 ± 0.1% for mer-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (5). The product of the photolysis of compound 5 in acetonitrile solution was isolated and structurally characterized as mer-[Ru(CH3CN)(bpy)Cl3] (6). Taking into account the presence of typical DNA intercalating ligands, the complexes can be potentially exploited as photoNORMs.

    by Anastasia O. Brovko, Ivan A. Yakovlev, Natalia V. Kuratieva, Dmitriy G. Sheven, Gennadiy A. Kostin

    A series of novel complexes with the general formula [RuNO(L)Cl3], where L is a bidentate ligand (bpym, bpy, phen), was synthesized and characterized. The photochemical activity of fac-[RuNO(bpym)Cl3] (1), fac-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (2), mer-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (3), fac-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (4), mer-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (5) in DMSO was quantified under 450 nm irradiation using a flow-through system, allowing simultaneous IR and UV-Vis spectral monitoring. Quantum yields for photoinduced release of NO were determined as follows: 5.4 ± 0.5 % for fac-[RuNO(bpym)Cl3] (1); 0.8±0.1 % for fac-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (2); 0.6±0.1 % for mer-[RuNO(phen)Cl3] (3); 3.7±0.1 % for fac-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (4); 2.1±0.1 % for mer-[RuNO(bpy)Cl3] (5).

    Heteroleptic Complexes of Ruthenium Nitrosyl with Pyridine and Bypiridine—Synthesis and Photoisomerization

    by Anastasiya O. Brovko, Natalya V. Kuratieva, Denis P. Pishchur, Gennadiy A. Kostin

    The reaction of [RuNO(Py)2Cl2OH] with bipyridine in water–ethanol media results in trans-(NO, OH)-[RuNO(Py)(Bpy)ClOH]+ with an acceptable yield (60–70%) as hexafluorophosphate salt. Further treatment of the hydroxy-complex with concentrated HF quantitatively leads to trans-(NO, F)-[RuNO(Py)(Bpy)ClF]+. Despite the chirality of both coordination spheres, the hexafluorophosphate salts crystallized as racemates. A NO-linkage isomerism study of the obtained complexes was performed at 80 K with different excitation wavelengths (405, 450, 488 nm). The most favorable wavelengths for the MS1 isomer (Ru-ON) formation were 405 and 450 nm, where the linkage isomer populations were 17% and 1% for [RuNO(Py)(Bpy)ClOH]PF6 and [RuNO(Py)(Bpy)ClF]PF6. The shift of the excitation wavelength to the green (488 nm) sharply decreased the MS1 population. The IR-spectral signatures of MS1 were registered. Reverse-transformation Ru-ON (MS1)-Ru-NO (GS) was investigated for [RuNO(Py)(Bpy)ClOH]PF6 using IR and DSC techniques that made it possible to determine the kinetic parameters (Ea and k0) and decay temperature.
