✦ Synopsis
The surface-enhanced Raman spectrum (SERS) of 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) in DMF solvent as a function of exciting line indicates that the enhancement peaks with excitation near 19 X IO3 cm-'. Also, a shift in vibrational frequencies occurs as the potential is varied from -0.8 to -1.8 V versus AglAgCI, with the ligand appearing to desorb from the electrode near (but prior to) the reduction potential of bipyridine. With this free ligand background information, the SERS of [ Ru( bpy),]*-" is re-investigated. At exciting lines in resonance with bipyridine anion II to A* transitions, evidence for both reduced and unreduced ligand vibrations (the frequencies of which are only slightly potential dependent) are observed.
