Abstract

{The effects of replacing a single polypyridyl ligand with an analogous anionic cyclometalating ligand were investigated for a set of three structurally related series of Ru(II) compounds formulated as {[}Ru(bpy)(2)(L)](z), {[}Ru(tpy)(L)](z), and {[}Ru(tpy)(L)Cl](z) where z = 0, +1, or +2, and L = polypyridyl (e.g.
