New Ru(II)-Re(I) binuclear complexes [{Ru(dmb)(2)}-LL-{Re(CO)(3)Cl}](2+)(dmb=4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) with 1,2-bis(4'-methyl-[2,2']bipyridinyl-4-yl)-ethane (MebpyC(2)H(4)Mebpy), 1,4-bis(4'-methyl[2,2']bipyridinyl-4-yl)-butane(MebpyC(4)H(8)Mebpy), and 1,6-bis(4'-methyl-[2,2']bipyridinyl-4-yl)-hexane (MebpyC(6)H(12)Mebpy) as bridge ligands (LL) have been synthesized, and their photocatalytic activity for CO2 reduction has been investigated. The most efficient photocatalyst had MebpyC(2)H(4)Mebpy as the bridge ligand, but no difference in photocatalysis was observed between the diads with MebpyC(4)H(8)Mebpy and MebpyC(6)H(12)Mebpy. Weak interaction between the Ru and Re sites was observed only through the MebpyC(2)H(4)Mebpy ligand but not through the other bridge ligands. This interaction induces a higher reductive quenching efficiency of the (MLCT)-M-3 excited state of the diad with MebpyC(2)H(4)Mebpy by the reductant. BNAH, and consequently the quantum yield of CO2 reduction is higher. (C) 2008 Elsevier BY. All rights reserved.
