Photoinduced energy-transfer has been studied between the component parts of two types of multichromophoric array. In the first type the components (metal polypyridyl complexes) are covalently linked by using the bridging ligand2,2′:3′,2″:6″,2′″-quaterpyridine, which has two inequivalent bipyridyl chelating sites in close proximity. Structural, redox and photophysical studies of the complexes based on this ligand show how the properties of each metal fragment vary between the two inequivalent binding sites, and show also how efficient inter-component energy transfer can occur between components, with an example of the antenna effect being demonstrated by energy transfer from three peripheral{Re(bipy)(CO)3CL}fragments to one central{Ru(bipy)3}2+fragment. In the second type of supramolecular array, the mononuclear complex component parts are held together by hydrogen-bonding between peripheral adenine, thymine, cytosine or guanine nucleobase groups. Thus a{Ru(bipy)3}2+derivative with a pendant cytosine group strongly associates inCH2CL2solution with an{Os(bipy)3}2+complex bearing a pendant guanine group, by Watson-Crick base-pair formation(Ka≈5000M-1), andRu→Osphotoinduced energy-transfer can occur across the triple hydrogen-bonded bridge.

Visible light photocatalysis enables a broad range of organic transformations that proceed via single electron or energy transfer. Metal polypyridyl complexes are among the most commonly employed visible light photocatalysts. The photophysical properties of these complexes have been extensively studied and can be tuned by modifying the substituents on the pyridine ligands. On the other hand, ligand modifications that enable substrate binding to control reaction selectivity remain rare. Given the exquisite control that enzymes exert over electron and energy transfer processes in nature, we envisioned that artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) created by incorporating Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes into a suitable protein scaffold could provide a means to control photocatalyst properties. This study describes approaches to create covalent and non-covalent ArMs from a variety of Ru(II) polypyridyl cofactors and a prolyl oligopeptidase scaffold. A panel of ArMs with enhanced photophysical properties were engineered, and the nature of the scaffold/cofactor interactions in these systems was investigated. These ArMs provided higher yields and rates than Ru(Bpy)32+ for the reductive cyclization of dienones and the [2+2] photocycloaddition between C-cinnamoyl imidazole and 4-methoxystyrene, suggesting that protein scaffolds could provide a means to improve the efficiency of visible light photocatalysts.
