(29) All attempts to obtain single crystals to clarify this issue were so
far unsuccessful. However, crystal packaging could not represent the
dynamic behavior of the ligands in solution, and electrostatic
interactions could make some specific configuration preferable.
(30) Not to be confused with the π* of bpy coligands, which remains
at about the same energy in different complexes. Indeed, the bpy−/0
redox potential does not change significantly in a series of RuII
complexes. The reason why MLCT RuII → bpy* shifts is mainly the
stabilization of t2g orbitals.

(34) For the same set of ligands, bpy+/0 redox potential spans along
0.2 V while RuIII/II spans 0.8V. See ref 33.
(35) Note that the voltammogram in Figure 5a does not reach the
wave at 1.80 V, while the pulsed experiment in Figure 5b does. This
wave makes the process at 1.39 V become irreversible. See Figures 5c−
d.

(37) The impurity at 1.05 V in the SWV voltammogram (Figure 5b)
is not responsible for the first appearance of the 712 nm. We
equilibrated the spectrum at 1.20 V and only a small change at the 461
nm MLCT band was seen.

(41) We could not follow the suggestion of Referee #1 regarding
measuring the EPR spectrum of the dioxidized specie because we did
not find a suitable chemical reagent for oxidation of Ru-(dt3pya)2 at
1.4 V.

(43) This is a very rough estimation of the diabatic distance because
dt3pya is rotating, and redox centers are not at a fixed position. We
estimate that separation between the central nitrogens of dt3pya span
from 5 to 10 Å.
