Abstract
Our laboratory has been working on the development of luminescent Ru(II) polypyridine complexes for application as molecular probes in the biological environment. The complexes prepared so far show stability at physiological pH, intense visible emission with significant Stokes shifts, and a long emission lifetime that allows real-time monitoring of biomolecules. For example, the cis-[Ru(p…
