Surface confined heteroleptic copper(ii)–polypyridyl complexes for photonuclease activity

Abstract

Heteroleptic copper(II)–polypyridyl complexes with extended π-conjugated, aromatic terminal units were immobilized on glass/Si substrates to intercalate DNA and cleave it upon photoexposure. Photonuclease activity is shown to be high, well reproducible and non-destructible towards the assembled complexes.
