Ruthenium(ii) Polypyridyl complexes as FRET donors: structure- and sequence-selective DNA binding and anti-cancer properties

Ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes (RPCs) that emit from metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) states have been developed as DNA probes and are being examined as potential anticancer agents. Here, we report that MLCT-emissive RPCs that bind DNA undergo Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) with...
