The one-electron reduction of Ru (bpm) 32+ generates Ru (bpm) 3+, which is a stronger reducing agent (£ ox= 0.73 V) than is Ru (bpz) 3+(£ ox= 0.50 V). The conjugateacid of Ru-(bpm) 3+,[Ru1I (bpm) 2 (bpmH,)] 2+, is a stronger reducing agent (£ ox= 0.50 V) and acid (p£ a 6.3) than is the corresponding form of Ru (bpz) 3+(£ ox= 0.30 V; p£ a 7.1). As a result, both the acidic and basic forms of Ru (bpm) 3+ reduce MV2+(1.0 X 106 and 1.0 X 109 M" 1 s" 1, respectively); only the basic formof Ru (bpz) 3+ is capable of that reaction. The efficiency of formationof Ru-(bpm) 3+() from the quenching of* Ru (bpm) 32+ by TEOA and EDTA in alkaline solution is at least as high as in the comparable quenching reactions of* Ru (bpz) 32+; in the presence of MV2+, the quantum yield ofMV,+ is given by a simple expression:#(MV,+)= 2 ijq7jce. Unfortunately, three properties of Ru (bpm) 32+ and its conjoiners conspire to make it a less desirable photosensitizer than Ru (bpz) 32+:(1) a significantly shorter excited-state lifetime (~ 0.1 vs~ 1 jus);(2) a less positive excited-state-reduction po-tential (1.2 vs~ 1.6 V), causing values of Acq, and hence i; q for comparable quencher concentrations, tobe smaller;(3) the instability of both acid-base forms of Ru (bpm) 3+ in aqueous solution toward degradative processes, making them unamenable to long-term storage, unlike [Run (bpz) 2 (bpz*~)]+, which is very stable in alkaline solution.Acknowledgment.
