Podands, coronands and cryptands containing 2,2'-bipyridine-units were synthesized.These compounds can be used as ligands in Ru(II)-polypyridinecomplexes.This new route principally allows the preparation of tris-heteroleptic complexes using the appropriate cryptands.Ru(II)-polypyridines RuL3(2+) (e.g.Ru(bpy)3(2+)) are interesting as sensitizers in photochemical water cleavage.Compared to Ru(bpy)3(2+), the photoanationrate should be reduced in the Ru(cryp)(2+) complex. - Keywords: Podands, Coronands, Cryptands, Photosensitizer, Photoanation
