OK, so you’ve made the Ru complexes.
Now, how are you going to determine what it does with DNA?
Will your complex bind DNA, like this?
Will the other complexes also bind DNA?
Will the other complexes cleave DNA?
Will your complex cleave (damage) DNA?
How might their different structures affect their behavior with DNA?

Electronic Spectroscopy
The Ru complexes are all orange:Won’t their UV/vis spectra be the same?
Cyclic Voltammetry
A Method to Measure Electrochemical Behavior and Ered
• Will the complexes have different Ru redox potentials?
The Same Question will be asked of your hemes: Can changing Heme substituents vary Fe(3+/2+) reduction potentials?

When no electroactive species is present, no current flows, no ic nor ia
This is what backgroundelectrolyte should look like.

Starting at a + V,Initially no current flows

If a reducible species is present ic will increase

+1.0 V -1.0 V
And continue to increase
+ current, cathodicic

Until all of the species is reduced. ic has reached a maximum.
+ current, cathodicic

Then ic decreases until…

- current, anodicia
+ V - V
+1.0 V -1.0 V
It again reaches the background current level.
+ current, cathodicic

+ V - V
+1.0 V -1.0 V
Now the potential is reversed
+ current, cathodicic
- current, anodicia
+ V - V
+1.0 V -1.0 V
And as V is more positive, the reduced species can bere-oxidized
+ current, cathodicic
- current, anodicia
+ V - V
+1.0 V -1.0 V
So ia decreases to a maximum
+ current, cathodicic
- current, anodicia
+ V - V
+1.0 V -1.0 V
Where all has been oxidized,
+ current, cathodicic
- current, anodicia

+1.0 V -1.0 V
Then ia decreases, back to thebackground level.
