The preparation of RuL3 (1), RuL2L’ (2) and Ru(pod) (3) complexes containing polyethylene glycol chains is described. The complexes are further functionalized by 4-oxyanisyl or by hydrophilic hydroxyl groups. These new complexes may interact in supramolecular assemblies with suitable acceptors such as mono- and bisviologens to form biomimetic models for photosynthesis.
