Biocatalytic Synthesis of the Conjugated Bridging Ligand Tetrapyrido[3,2-a:2‘,3‘-c:3‘ ‘,2‘ ‘-h:2‘ ‘‘,3‘ ‘‘-j]phenazine (tpphz) and a Dinuclear Ruthenium Complex

We have synthesized a fully conjugated aromatic bridging ligand, tetrapyrido[3,2-a:2‘,3‘-c:3‘ ‘,2‘ ‘-h:2‘ ‘‘,3‘ ‘‘-j]phenazine (tpphz), and a dinuclear ruthenium complex using Hematin as a biocatalyst.
