| Abstract | The new ruthenium complex $[Ru(terpy)(dcbpy)(Hmte)](PF_{6})_{2}$ $([2](PF_{6})_{2};$ dcbpy=6,6′-dichloro-2,2′-bipyridine, terpy=2,2′;6′,2“-terpyridine, Hmte=2-(methylthio)ethanol) was synthesized. In the crystal structure, this complex is highly distorted, revealing steric congestion between dcbpy and Hmte. In water, $[2]^{2+}$ forms spontaneously by reacting Hmte and the aqua complex $[Ru(terpy)(dcbpy)(OH_{2})]^{2+}$ $([1]^{2+}),$ with a second-order rate constant of $0.025 s^{−1} M^{−1}$ at 25 °C. In the dark, the RuS bond of $[2]^{2+}$ is thermally unstable and partially hydrolyzes; in fact, $[1]^{2+}$ and $[2]^{2+}$ are in an equilibrium characterized by an equilibrium constant K of $151 M^{−1}.$ When exposed to visible light, the RuS bond is selectively broken to release $[1]^{2+},$ that is, the equilibrium is shifted by visible-light irradiation. The light-induced equilibrium shifts were repeated four times without major signs of degradation; the RuS coordination bond in $[2]^{2+}$ can be described as a robust, light-sensitive, supramolecular bond in water. To demonstrate the potential of this system in supramolecular chemistry, a new thioether–cholesterol conjugate (4), which inserts into lipid bilayers through its cholesterol moiety and coordinates to ruthenium through its sulfur atom, was synthesized. Thioether-functionalized, anionic, dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol (DMPG), lipid vesicles, to which aqua complex $[1]^{2+}$ efficiently coordinates, were prepared. Upon exposure of the Ru-decorated vesicles to visible light, the RuS bond is selectively broken, thus releasing $[1]^{2+}$ that stays at the water-bilayer interface. When the light is switched off, the metal complex spontaneously coordinates back to the membrane-embedded thioether ligands without a need to heat the system. This process was repeated four times at 35 °C, thus achieving light-triggered hopping of the metal complex at the water-bilayer interface. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
