A new solvatochromic pentacyanoferrate(II) complex with a 4,4′-bipyridine based dicationic ligand was synthesized and characterized. Its chromotropic behavior markedly affected by solvent polarity was examined in different media i.e. neat solvents, binary solvent mixtures, and aqueous glucose solutions, and quantified using suitable solvent polarity parameters. The metal to ligand charge transfer (MLCT) energy shows a linear correlation with the Reichardt solvent polarity parameter as well as the Kirkwood dipolarity function and suitable functions expressing polarizability. Using suitable Linear Solvation Energy Relationships (LSERs) it was concluded that mainly specific solute-solvent interactions contribute to the solvatochromic phenomenon. The investigation of the solvatochromic behavior of the title compound in aqueous glucose solutions revealed a different response to medium polarity. Tuning of the solvatochromic intensity of the title compound by changing the type of medium was further studied focusing on aqueous glucose solutions.
