Resumen:
We introduce a new caged glutamate, based in a ruthenium bipyridyl core, that undergoes heterolytic
cleavage after irradiation with visible light with wavelengths up to 532 nm, yielding free glutamate in
less than 50 ns. Glutamate photorelease occurs also efficiently following two-photon (2P) excitation at
800 nm, and has a functional cross section of 0.14 GM.
