Abstract
Two novel pyrene triphenylphosphine ruthenium conjugates act as fluorescent turn-on beacons for serum albumin, being non-fluorescent in aqueous media but exhibiting strong emission upon binding to BSA. The selective cytotoxicity of compounds against tumour cells is enhanced upon irradiation by UV-light, paving the avenue for application in photodynamic therapy under two-photon excitation.
