The luminescence dynamics of a polypyridyl ruthenium II [Ru（phen）2（ip）]2＋ and 5,10,15,20- tetraphenylporphyrin （H2TPP） dyad have been measured by using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The transient luminescent spectra of the dyad show an ultrafast energy transfer within 300 ps after pho- toexcitation of the [Ru（phen）2（ip）]2＋ at 453 am. However, no energy transfer has been observed as the excitation wavelength is 400 nm, corresponding to the absorption peak of H2TPP. The origin of the energy transfer from [Ru（phen）2（ip）]2＋ to H2TPP has been analyzed according to the FSrster energy-transfer theory.
Two new ruthenium(Ⅱ) complexes, [Ru(btz)3](ClO4)2 (1) and [Ru(btz)(dppz)2](ClO4)2 (2) (btz = 4,4′-bithi-azole, dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, ES-MS and X-ray crystallography. The DNA binding behaviors of two complexes have been studied by spectroscopic and viscosity measurements. The results suggest that complex 1 binds to CT-DNA via an electrostatic mode, while complex 2 via an intercalative mode. Under irradiation at 365 nm, both complexes were found to promote the cleavage of plasmid pBR 322 DNA from supercoiled form Ⅰ to nicked form Ⅱ. The mechanism studies reveal that singlet oxygen 1O2 and hydroxyl radical (OH-) play a significant role in the photocleavage process.

Three Ru(Ⅱ) complexes [Ru(bpy)2(1-IQTNH)](ClO4)2 (1), [Ru(bpy)2(2-QTNH)](ClO4)2 (2) and [Ru(bpy)2(3-IQTNH)](ClO4)2 (3) (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, 1-IQTNH = 6-(isoquinolin-1-yl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine, 2-QTNH = 6-(quinolin-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine, 3-IQTNH = 6-(isoquinolin-3-yl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. The electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of the complexes differ from those of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ owing to the structural differences between the ligands and their complexes.

Three new cadmium or zinc arenedisulfonate complexes [Zn（bpp）2（L）]n 1, { [Cd（bpp）2（1,5-NDS）（H2O）2]·4H2O }n 2 and { [Cd（bpp）2（H2O2）2]·（1,5-NDS） } n 3 （L = 4,4′-bis（2-sulfonatostyryl）biphenyl, bpp = 1,3-di（4-pyd-dyl）propane and 1,5-NDS = 1,5-Naphthalenedisulfonate） have been synthesized from aqueous solution and structurally characterized by infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data for complex 1： space group P21/n, a = 10.559（3）, b = 13.138（4）, c = 17.623（5）A^°, β = 100.852（3）°, V = 2400.9（12） A^°^3 Z = 2, Dc= 1.351 g/cm^3, F（000） = 1016, μ = 0.654 mm^-1, the final R = 0.0412 and wR = 0.0994; Crystal data for complex 2： space group P^-1, a = 8.5642（19）, b = 10.076（3）, c = 12.114（3） A^°, α = 81.623（7）, β = 77.149（8）, γ = 82.787（7）°, V = 1003.6（4） A^°^3 Z = 1, Dc= 1.495 g/cm^3, F（000） = 466,μ = 0.713 mm^3, the final R = 0.0241 and wR = 0.0713; Crystal data for complex 3： space group C2/c, a = 21.6024（15）, b = 9.4608（5）, c = 18.4656（11）A^°, β = 107.359（3）°, V= 3602.0（4）A^°^3 Z = 4, Dc= 1.533 g/cm^3, F（000） = 1704,μ = 0.780 mm^-1, the final R = 0.0229 and wR = 0.0572. The X-ray single diffraction reveals that 1 exhibits a 3D metal-organic framework formed from 2D Zn（bpp）2^2＋ networks connected by L in the third dimension; 2 and 3 possess 3D and 2D architectures constructed from 1D polymeric chains through H-bond. Complexes 1-3 display photoluminescent emissions at 452 and 335 nm, respectively.
The self-assembly reactions of [MOS3]^2- （M = W, Mo） with CuS2COCH3 in DMF produced two novel dodecanuclear Mo（W）/Cu/S heterometallic clusters, [Et4N]4[{MOS3}3Cu6S2- （CuS2COCH3）3]·H2O （1： M = W; 2： M = Mo）. Cluster 1 crystallizes in hexagonal, space group P-62c with a = 16.5612（3）, b = 16.5612（3）, c = 16.4660（5）A, Z = 2, V = 3911.13（16）A^3, Dc = 1.935 g/cm^3, μ（MoKα） = 7.269 mm^-1, F（000） = 2192, the final R = 0.0289 and wR = 0.0789 for 2425 observed reflections （I 〉 2σ（I））. Cluster 2 is isomorphous to 1 with similar crystal parameters. X-ray analysis reveals that both clusters consist of three incomplete cubane-like cluster units {MOS3Cu3S2COCH3}, which are linked together by two μ3-S atoms.
Solvothermal reaction of [WS4]2-with CuCN and trithiocyanuric acid（L1） in orga-nic solvents gave rise to a new W/Cu/S polymer with a 2D anionic network,namely [Et4N]2[WS4Cu3（C3N3S3H1.5）2]（1）.The anionic layer of 1 is constructed by the T-shaped {WS4Cu3} subunits as nodes and L1 as linkers and features a（4,4） topology.Both 1 and its isomorphous compound [Et4N]2[MoS4Cu3（C3N3S3H1.5）2]（2） have been fully characterized by X-ray crystal analysis,IR and microanalyses.Compounds 1 and 2 show optical transitions with band gaps of 2.17 and 1.84 eV,respectively.
