摘要:
A new ruthenium(II) polypyridine complex, [Ru(bpy)(2)(PAIDH)](2+) (1) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; PAIDH = 2-pyridyl-1H-anthra[1,2-d]imidazole-6,11-dione) has been found to display electrochemically "off-on" luminescent switch through exchanging two protons and two electrons between the quinone/hydroquinone redox couple at room temperature.
