Abstract
Two new ligands, 5-amino-6-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline (5-NH2-6-NO2-phen), produced by amination of 5-NO2-1,10-phenanthroline, and 5,6-diamino-1,10-phenanthroline (5,6-(NH2) 2-phen) ,produced by reduction of 5-NH2-6-NO2-phen, have been synthesized and characterized. The ligand 5-NH2-6-NO2-phen has been coordinated to a Ru(II) metal center to produce the Ru(II)-polypyridine complex [ (bpy) 2Ru (5-NH2-6-NO2-phen)] (PF6 ) 2 (bpy= 2, 2' -bipyridine) . This complex has been characterized by IR, UV-Vis, 1H-NMR, and cyclic voltammetry (CV) .
