Capillary Zone Electrophoresis of Iridium(III) and Ruthenium(II) Polypyridyl Complexes in Non‐Aqueous Solvents

Abstract

A method of non‐aqueous capillary zone electrophoresis has been optimised for the characterisation of five functionalised mixed‐ligand iridium(III) polypyridyl complexes and four functionalised ruthenium(II) bis‐terpyridine complexes. Their mobilities, the relation to their molar mass and the capillary lifetime (measured in number of injections) have been determined.
