Ruthenium­(II) complexes [Ru­(tap)2(NN)]2+ (tap = 1,4,5,8-tetraazaphenanthrene, NN = 11-cyano-dipyrido­[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]­phenazine (11-CN-dppz) and 11,12-dicyano-dipyrido­[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]­phenazine (11,12-CN-dppz)) feature the CN groups as infrared (IR)-active redox markers. They were studied by cycli...
