The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Phosphorylation of β-cyclodextrin enhances binding with Ru(II)polypyridyl complexes, and promotes selectivity based on chirality and ligand hydrophobicity. For [Ru(phen)2dppz]2+, inclusion of dppz results in a dramatic increase in luminescence with multiple lifetimes. The sensitive response of photophysics to the environment reveals nanoscale variation of polarity.
