Photochemical expulsion of a Ru(phen)2 unit from a macrocyclic receptor and its thermal reco-ordination

Abstract
A ruthenium complex containing two 1,10-phenanthroline ligands as well as a bipyridine fragment incorporated in a macrocycle (36 atoms) has been synthesized; photoexpulsion of the Ru(phen)2 unit from the macrocycle and its thermal reco-ordination take place efficiently and quantitatively.
