A new class of Ru(II) complexes of the general formula cis-Ru(dcbiq)2X2 (X=Cl-, CN-, NCS-) were synthesized. The UV-VIS absorption spectra of the title complexes exhibited an intense MLCT band at around 630nm, with a molar absorption coefficient of 9800 mole-1 cm-1 and their effectiveness for sensitization of TiO2 electrodes in a solar cell device was investigated.
