title: The switch that wouldn't switch--unexpected luminescence from a ruthenium(II)-dppz-complex in water.
abstract: The complex [(dmcb)(2)Ru(dppz)](PF(6))(2) shows unexpected luminescence in water implying fundamentally different excited state relaxation pathways than are typically observed for complexes of this kind.
