Description
Summary:The data here-in presented is associated to the research article, Electrochemistry and spectroscopy of substituted [Ru(phen)3]2+ and [Ru(bpy)3]2+ complexes [1].Redox data obtained from cyclic voltammetry experiments of the oxidation of Ru(II) to Ru(III) of thirteen Ru(II)-polypyridine complexes is presented in this data in brief article. Data is obtained from the cyclic voltammograms at scan rates of two orders of magnitude (0.05–5.00 Vs−1) under similar experimental conditions, namely in acetonitrile as solvent and tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate as supporting electrolyte, and reported versus the redox couple of Fe(II) of ferrocene. Keywords: Ruthenium bipyridyl, Ruthenium phenanthroline, Photocatalyst, DSSC dye, Redox potential prediction
