Compounds [RuII(bipy)(terpy)L](PF6)2 with bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine, terpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine, L = H2O, imidazole (imi), 4-methylimidazole, 2-methylimidazole, benzimidazole, 4,5-diphenylimidazole, indazole, pyrazole, 3-methylpyrazole have been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, ESI-MS and UV/Vis (in CH3CN and H2O). For L = H2O, imidazole, 4,5-diphenylimidazole and indazole the X-ray structures of the complexes have been determined with the crystal packing featuring only few intermolecular C–H⋯π or π–π interactions due to the separating action of the PF6-anions. Complexes with L = imidazole and 4-methylimidazole exhibit a fluorescence emission with a maximum at 662 and 667 nm, respectively (λexc
				= 475 nm, solvent CH3CN or H2O). The substitution of the aqua ligand in [Ru(bipy)(terpy)(H2O)]2+ in aqueous solution by imidazole to give [Ru(bipy)(terpy)(imi)]2+ is fastest at a pH of 8.5 (as followed by the increase in emission intensity). Coupling of the [Ru(bipy)(terpy)]2+ fragment to cytochrome c
				(Yeast iso-1) starting from the Ru-aqua complex was successful at 35 °C and pH 7.0 after 5 d under argon in the dark. The [Ru(bipy)(terpy)(cyt c)]-product was characterized by UV/Vis, emission and mass spectrometry. The location where the [Ru(bipy)(terpy)] complex was coupled to the protein was identified as His44 (corresponding to His39 in other numbering schemes) using digestion of the Ru-coupled protein by trypsin and analysis of the tryptic peptides by HPLC-high resolution MS.

From model compounds to protein binding: syntheses, characterizations and fluorescence studies of [RuII(bipy)(terpy)L]2+ complexes (bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine; terpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine; L = imidazole, pyrazole and derivatives, cytochrome c).

Self-assembly of the [Fe(DABP)3]SO4 (DABP = 5,5′-diamino-2,2′-bipyridine) or [Fe(bipy)3]SO4 (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) complex with a tripodal tris(3-pyridylurea) ligand (L) results in a layered structure that includes a sulfate anion in the cleft of one L molecule. The two compounds, [Fe(DABP)3][SO4⊂L]·10H2O (2) and [Fe(bipy)3][SO4⊂L]·9H2O (3), show very similar sheets formed by the anionic units [SO4⊂L]2− and cationic building blocks ([Fe(DABP)3]2+ or [Fe(bipy)3]2+). However, there are different water clusters that link the adjacent layers in the two products, that is, water parallelograms and quasi “water cubes” in 2 versus single water molecules, water dimers, and hexamers in 3. The half-encapsulation of sulfate by a single L molecule contrasts with the previously reported full-encapsulation of the sulfate ion by two L molecules in [M(H2O)6][SO4⊂L2] (1). This different anion encapsulation is traced to the hydrogen-acceptor properties of the pyridyl groups of L together with the hydrogen-bonding properti...
