Abstract
A DNA Swiss-army knife: Photo- and biophysical studies on the hetero-dinuclear complex [{Ru(tpm)(dppz)}(μ-dpp[5]){fac-(CO) 3Re(dppz)}]3+ (see structure; tpm = tris(1-pyrazolyl) methane; dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine; dpp[5] = 4,4′-dipyridylpentane) reveal that it is both a DNA light switch and a direct cleaving agent. (Chemical Equation Presented). © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
