- A series of ruthenium(II) tris-bipyridyl complexes covalently linked with different amine reductants such as tripropylamine (TPrA), ethanolamine and diethanolamine for an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system have been synthesized. Their ECL property at different working electrodes has been studied with and without the presence of TPrA, triethanolamine (TEOA) and 2-(dibutylamino) ethanol (DBAE) as the coreactant, respectively. The results demonstrate that the conjugated ruthenium complex alone can generate ECL through intramolecular interaction at a relatively low concentration, while with intermolecular interaction the ECL intensity increases progressively and becomes increasingly dominant with increasing complex concentration. For the coreactant system ECL, the amine coreactant needed for the conjugate complexes can be significantly lowered in comparison with that of the well known [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+)/TPrA system. One amine substituent is better for the system in order to diminish the steric hindrance, and the intramolecular amine reductant employed should have a similar structure with that of the additive amine coreactant to achieve a good ECL performance, which can pave a new route to further improving the ECL efficiency and increase the sensitivity of detection through combining both intra-and intermolecular interaction.

- A series of bimetallic ruthenium complexes [(bpy)(2)Ru(bpy)(CH2)(n)(bpy)Ru(bpy)(2)](4+) (1, where bpy is 2,2'-bipyridinyl, n = 3, 5, 8) for the coreactant electrochemiluminescence (ECL) system have been synthesized. Their ECL property at different working electrode has been studied in 0.1 M phosphate buffer by using tripropylamine (TPrA) and 2-(dibutylamino) ethanol (DBAE) as the coreactant. The results demonstrate that the ECL intensity depends largely on the length of the saturated carbon chain linkage: the longer is the carbon chain, the higher is the ECL intensity. A remarkable ECL enhancement (up to about 25 times), in comparison with the commonly used metallic [Ru(bpy)(3)](2+), has been observed from 1c (n = 8) at Pt electrode. With 20 mM TPrA, the log of the ECL intensity increases linearly with the log of complex 1c concentrations over the concentration range of 1.0 x 10(-16) to 1.0 x 10(-6) M at glassy carbon electrode. The detection limit is 1.0 x 10(-16) M at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. This is the highest ECL detection limit for bimetallic system reported until now. The study provides a general methodology to further improve and tune the ECL efficiency by using multimetallic ruthenium complexes.
