A Ru(terpy)(phen)-incorporating ring and its light-induced geometrical changes

Abstract

A Ru(terpy)(phen) motif has been inscribed in a 39-membered ring by functionalizing the ligands and subsequently performing a cyclization reaction on the complex; by visible light irradiation, a dramatic geometrical changeover of the cyclic complex takes place which can be reversed thermally.
