Mononuclear Co(III) and Ni(II) Complexes with Polypyridyl Ligands, [Co(phen) 2 (taptp)] 3+ and [Ni(phen) 2 (taptp)] 2+ : Synthesis, Photocleavage and DNA-binding

Abstract

Two novel, mixed ligand complexes of cobalt(III) and nickel(II), [Co(phen)2(taptp)]3+ (1) and [Ni(phen)2(taptp)] 2+ (2) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and taptp = 4,5,9,18- tetraazaphenanthreno [9,10-b]triphenylene), were synthesized and characterized by ele Show more
