Long Wavelength Phototriggering: Ruthenium-Based Caged Compounds

Here we describe the use of Ru polypyridine compounds as caging agents for a variety of molecules. The photorelease of the caged molecule can be triggered using visible light (450-500 nm) with a high quantum yield. These caged compounds are very stable in aqueous environments and yield the molecule...
