Abstract

Three Ru(II) complexes [Ru(bpy)2(1-IQTNH)](ClO4)2 (1), [Ru(bpy)2(2-QTNH)](ClO4)2 (2) and [Ru(bpy)2(3-IQTNH)](ClO4)2 (3) (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, 1-IQTNH = 6-(isoquinolin-1-yl)-1,3,5-triazine- 2,4-diamine, 2-QTNH = 6-(quinolin-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine- 2,4-diamine, 3-IQTNH = 6-(isoquinolin-3-yl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. The electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of the complexes differ from those of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ owing to the structural differences between the ligands and their complexes.
