Synthesis and property of a chiral salen Mn(III) complex covalently linked to an Ru(II) tris(bipyridyl) photosensitizer

• A catalyst-photo sensitizer binuclear Mn(III)Ru(II) complex was prepared, in which the catalyst moiety of the Mn(III) unit with a chiral pyrrolidine salen ligand was covalently linked to a photosensitizer of the Ru(II) tris(bipyridyl) fragment. The electrochemical and photophysical properties of the Mn(III)Ru(II) complex were studied.
