Three heteroleptic ruthenium sensitizers, Ru(L)($L^1)(NCS)_2$ [L = 4,4'-dicarboxylic acid-2,2'-bipyridine, Ru-T1: $L^1$ = (E)-2-(4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridin-4-yl)-3-(thiophen-2-yl)acrylonitrile, Ru-T2: $L^2$ = (E)-3-(5'-hexyl-2,2'-bithiophen-5- yl)-2-(4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridin-4-yl)acrylonitrile, and Ru-T3: $L^3$ = (E)-3-(5"-hexyl-2,2':5',2"-terthiophen-5-yl)-2- (4'-methyl-2,2'-bipyridin-4-yl)acrylonitrile)], were synthesized and used as photosensitizers in nanocrystalline dyesensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The introduction of the 3-(5-hexyloligothiophen-5-yl)acrylonitrile group increased the conjugation length of the bipyridine donor ligand and thus improved their molar absorption coefficient and light harvesting efficiency. DSSCs with the configuration of Sn$O_2$: F/Ti$O_2$/ruthenium dye/liquid electrolyte/Pt devices were fabricated using these Ru-$T1{\sim}T3$ as a photosensitizers. Among the devices, the DSSCs composed of Ru-T2 exhibited highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.84% under AM 1.5 G illumination (100 mW/$cm^2$).

The self-assembly of one novel organic complex based on chlorogenic acid (HCA) and 2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-bipy) has been synthesized and characterized. The complex achieved by hydrogen-bonding interactions, adopted a 1:1 stoichiometry in a solid state. The proton transfer occurred from the carboxyl oxygen to the aromatic nitrogen atom to form salts CA${\cdot}$(2,2'-Hbipy), the 2,2'-Hbipy molecule individually occupies the pseudo-tetragonum that is formed with CA. In this paper, the interactions of CA${\cdot}$(2,2'-Hbipy) with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by fluorescence spectrometry. For CA${\cdot}$(2,2'-Hbipy), HCA and 2,2'-bipy, the average quenching constants for BSA were $2.4384{\times}10^4$, $4.653{\times}10^3$, and $3.059{\times}10^3\;L{\cdot}mol^{-1}$, respectively. The mechanism for protein fluorescence quenching is apparently governed by a static quenching process. The Stern-Volmer quenching constants and corresponding thermodynamic parameters ${\Delta}$H, ${\Delta}$G and ${\Delta}$S were calculated. The binding constants and the number of binding sites were also investigated. The conformational changes of BSA were observed from synchronous fluorescence spectra.

본 논문에서는 산소 민감 발광 염료를 이용하여 마이크로 채널 내에서 세포가 배양되고 있을 때 산소농도를 측정하였다. 현재까지 알려진 여러 산소 민감 발광 염료 중 본 논문에서는 물에 잘 녹으며 장 시간 동안 사용하여도 독성이 없는 것으로 알려진 $[Ru(bpy)_3]^{2+}$를 사용하였으며 이와 더불어 산소 민감 염료 측정법의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 칼세인 염료를 이용하여 두 염료의 밝기 비율을 구하여 농도를 측정하였다. SCOMS 카메라와 마이크로 채널을 이용하여 캘리브레이션을 실시하고 농도와 밝기와의 관계를 구하였으며 이 관계를 이용하여 세포가 배양되는 조건에서의 배양액의 산소농도를 측정하였다. 실험 결과 채널입구에서 점점 멀어질수록 마이크로 채널 내에서 산소농도는 점점 낮아진다는 것을 관찰 할 수 있었다.

새로운 viologen 유도체인 1,1'-bis(3,4-dihydroxybutyl)-[4,4'-bipyridine]-1,1'-diium bromide (V-Pr-2OH)을 합성하여 PTB7 : $PC_{71}BM$ Blend를 기반으로 하는 inverted polymer solar cells (iPSCs)에 cathode buffer layer로 적용하였다. V-Pr-2OH이 cathode buffer layer로 적용된 PSCs (ITO/V-Pr-2OH/PTB7 : $PC_{71}BM/MoO_3/Ag$)의 power conversion efficiency (PCE)는 7.28%이었다. V-Pr-2OH이 없는 iPSCs (ITO/ZnO/PTB7 : $PC_{71}BM/MoO_3/Ag$)의 PCE (7.41%)에 상응하는 값이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 높은 열처리 공정이 필요한 ZnO가 배제된, 즉 높은 온도의 열처리 없이도 제작 가능한 PSC에 대한 가능성을 보여주고 있다.

Many kinds of fluorescent polypyridine compounds including bpy and dppz derivatives are described in understanding the recent current of fluorescent materials having photofuctionality. Those polypyridine compounds have the photofunctionality such as the fluorescence recognition and/or photo-switching. Furthermore, those compounds are applicated for the construction of long ranged photoinduced electron/energy transfer system. Various fluorescent ${\pi}-conjugation$ systems connected by amide or imine bond as well as the simple fluorescent bpy derivatives are introduced in this review paper.

Oxidation of triphenylphosphine to triphenylphosphine oxide by [(tpy)(bpy)Ru(O)]2+ (tpy is 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine and bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine) in CH3CN has been studied. Experiments with the 18O-labeled oxo complex show that transfer of oxygen from [(tpy)(bpy)RuⅣ=O]2+ to triphenylphosphine is quantitative within experimental error. The reaction is first order in each reactant with k (25.3 ℃)=1.25 × 106 M-1s-1. The inital product, [(tpy)(bpy)RuⅡ-OPPh3]2+, is formed as an observable intermediate and undergoes slow k (25 ℃)=6.7 × 10-5 s-1 solvolysis. Activation parameters for the oxidation step are ΔH≠=3.5 kcal/mol and ΔS≠=-23 eu. The geometry at ruthenium in the complex cation, [(tpy)(bpy)RuⅡ(OH2)]2+, is approximately octahedral with the ligating atoms being the three N atoms of the tpy ligand, the two N atoms of the bpy ligand, and the oxygen atom of the aqua ligand. The Ru-O bond length is 2.136(5) Å.

This paper describes the electrochemical and photochemical behavior of amphiphilic Os bipyridine compelx adsorbed on SnO$_2$electrodes by the Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) film as monolayer state. Theoretical equation of cyclicvoltammetry for redox species were discussed. And the cyclic voltammogram were simulated taking account theinteraction parameters. From these obtained values, we could fit almost all measured voltammograms with these parameters.

The oxidation of triphenylphosphine by [(tpy)(phen)RuⅣ(O)]2+ and [(bpy)(p-tert-butylpy)RuⅣ(0)]2+ (tpy is 2,2': 6',2"-terpyridine, phen is 1,10-phenanthroline, bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine, and p-tert-butylpy is para-tertbutylpyridine) in CH3CN has been studied. Experiments using 18O-labeled complex show the oxyl group transfer from [RuⅣ=O]2+ to triphenylphosphine occured quantitatively within experimental error. Kinetic data were fit to a second-order for [RuⅣ=O]2+ and [PPh3]. The initial product, [RuⅡ-OPPh3]2+, was formed as an observable intermediate and then underwent slow solvolysis. The reaction proceeded as endothermic in activation enthalpy and a decrease in activation entropy. The oxidative reactivity of four representative ruthenium mono-oxo oxidants against triphenylphosphine was compared. These systems have been utilized as electrochemical oxidative catalysts.

The Photophysical and photochemical properties of Ruthenium bipyridine with two long hydrocarbon chains, $[Ru(bipy)_2(dhbipy)]^{2+}$ and transient phenothiazine derivative cation radical $(PTD^+)$ in the cationic vesicle were studied. Transient absorption spectra of cation radical of phenothiazine derivative in the vesicle system containing the $Ru^{2+}$ complex, $[Ru(bipy)_2(dhbipy)]^{2+}$, (1) as sensitizer and phenothiazine derivative as electron donor was observed by XeCl excimer laser photolysis system. Thus the excited ruthenium complex would be quenched by phenothiazine derivative(PTD) reductively in the vesicle system. The quenching rate constant($K_Q$) of $Ru^{2+}$ with two long hydrocarbon chains in the vesicle by PTD was $9.6{\times}10^8M^{-1}S^{-1}$. The absorption decay kinetics showed that lifetime of phenothiazine derivative cation radical is a value in the 4-8m sec range.
