Resumen:
The coordination of a modified rhodamine B (Rhod) to a bis-bipyridine ruthenium (II) (Rubpy) phototrigger complex enables a photodissociation reaction at longer wavelengths through enhanced absorption of green light (532 nm). The very high molar absorptivity of rhodamine (105 M−1 cm−1) and the high quantum efficiency of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from rhodamine to the Rubpy center (0.84) result in an unusually high photosensitivity and uncaging cross-section of the Rubpyrhodamine complex at longer wavelengths.
